It WORKS!!
i have two epileptic beagles and my vet added potassium bromide in addition to the phenobarbital that they take....and the seizure episodes diminished enormously!!! vetrxdirect is wonderful to work with, they send emails letting me know what's going on, and i love how, if i need to call, i actually get to talk to a real person....in fact, when i called this morning, i talked to the same girl who had sent me the email, and she knew who i was!!!!! LOVE them!!!!! great service!!! plus, they are also the only online pharmacy that carries this drug.....

Delivery Delay
This medication is to decrease the number seizures. I ran out of this medication and have twice obtain small amounts from my vet. It appears that I'll need to order again from my vet as the tracking does not state when the medication will arrive!

It WORKS!!
From Blairsville, GA, USAComments about K-BroVet (Potassium Bromide) Oral SolutionSince starting this medication one year ago, my Bella has been seizure free for 10 months, and Barney 6 months. It has been a blessing. I feel so helpless when they have episodes, and with my vet putting them on a combination of Phenobarbital and K-BroVet Potassium Bromide, life has been completely changed!!! Love this product!!!-

Reliable, good
From CTComments about K-BroVet (Potassium Bromide) Oral SolutionWe have been on this particular med for a few years now. Our dog is diagnosed as an idiopathic epileptic, and is unfortunately on phenobarbital and thyroid medication as well. So we are on several different meds. This has always been good for us. One thing to watch for is salt in your dog's food or treats, it can counteract the med and allow seizures to begin again. Every dog has a different threshold, so ask your vet about it to cover all your bases. -
Fair Price
From New York, NY, USAComments about K-BroVet (Potassium Bromide) Oral SolutionPet medications are such a scam and vets think an owner will pay through the nose for medications to stop their dog from having seizures. Although I consider this still overpriced for the pennies it costs to produce and market the PB, I have not found a better price -
works great
From GA, USAComments about K-BroVet (Potassium Bromide) Oral SolutionMy lab takes this along with a phenobarbital to control seizures. -
Excellent results with my dog's seizures
From Homestead, FL, USAComments about K-BroVet (Potassium Bromide) Oral SolutionMy dachshund suffers from seizures. He was taking the liquid potassium bromide, which he hated and it was difficult for me to administer causing his levels to go below the recommended therapeutic level. With the tablet, it is much more easy and since it is liver-flavored, he takes it as if it were a treat! I am so happy I made the change! His vet is going to be happy too! -
dog is doing better
From idahoComments about K-BroVet (Potassium Bromide) Oral SolutionOur dog has been taking this for over a year and is doing alot better. We have been able to lower the amount of his other medicine. -
Pleased with VetRXDirect
From Baltimore, MD, USAComments about K-BroVet (Potassium Bromide) Oral SolutionI found these to be less expensive than buying them through my vet. Sometimes the delivery is not as quick as I would like, even when I think I allowed enough time, which means my dog has had to go without for a few days. But, I will continue to purchase them here. -
It works!!

Good product
From Dayton, OH, USAComments about K-BroVet (Potassium Bromide) Oral SolutionBeen using it for five months in addition to phenobarbital. Very effective results. Mix it with vanilla yogurt and my dog laps it up!� -
great product.
From Tucson, AZComments about K-BroVet (Potassium Bromide) Oral SolutionWe started using this as prescribed by our Boxer's Neurologist. She's had seizures since she was 2yrs old. This helped her absorb the phenobarbital and helped with her seizures. She hasn't had one in about 3 yrs. She just turned 5 in August.

does the oral solution have to be used within a certain time? my dog only needs .38ml for her weight at this time and i wanna buy the 2 oz bottle. that would last about 5 months i think. is that ok? or will it expire before that??
-
5 months should be fine. We currently do not have a 2oz bottle that I can look for the expiration, but the 10oz bottles we have has an expiration date of 11/2016. Thank you, VetRxDirect

My dog doesn't like the taste of the liquid. Can it be mixed with Greek yogurt and frozen more like a treat??
-
The manufacturer of K-BroVet recommends storing their product at room temperature in a tightly sealed container. Refrigeration or freezing of the liquid solution can cause crystallization of the product, leading to potentially inaccurate dosing. It is therefore not recommended to freeze this product. There is an alternate dosage form of K-BroVet available, a liver flavored chewable tablet, that could be viable option for your situation. VetRxDirect also offers several compounded options of potassium bromide. Please contact your veterinarian to determine what they believe is the best course of therapy for your dog. Thank you, VetRxDirect

My veterinarian wants me to increase my 15 lb dog K BroVet from 250 to 550 for 5 days because he was having seizures everyday, on top of 16.2 mg of phenobarbital to give his brain a boost, could there be a side affect on this boost??
-
Lynie, For seizure treatment the loading dose of K-BroVet is typically between 400 and 600 mg per day. Even though 550 mg is within the loading dose, there may be adverse effects associated the medication. The most common side effect is sedation, lasting up to 3 weeks, in dogs receiving this drug. This adverse effect is commonly seen when used with phenobarbital treatment. Other potential adverse effects reported include weight gain in the first few months of therapy, increase urine frequency, weight loss, vomiting, and constipation. You may feed a low calorie diet to avoid weight gain. Also, acute GI upset may occur if the loading dose is given too rapidly. Please contact your dog's veterinarian if one of these adverse effects is observed while on this medication. In addition to the side effects noted above, we recommend giving doses on a regular basis. Lack of good compliance is a major cause of therapeutic failures with anti-seizure medications. If a dose is missed, give it when remembered; a dose may be doubled the next day, but should be separated by several hours to reduce the chance for an upset stomach. If your dog cannot tolerate an upset stomach (i.e. vomiting) of K-BroVet with daily doses your pet may better tolerate doses divided throughout the day and given with food. Thank you, VetRxDirect

Do you have these in 100 mg ??
-
Fred, PRN, the manufacturer for K-BroVet, does not produce the potassium bromide in any strengths other than those listed on the website - 250mg, 500mg, and the liquid in a concentration of 250mg/mL. We do compound potassium bromide in a variety of other strengths, including 100mg capsules. These can be found doing a search for potassium bromide on our website; there will be compounded suspensions and capsules. Thank you, VetRxDirect
