MarketplaceHomeopathic Treatment For HerpesPosted on January 14, 2010. My cat had one, it has herpes in the eyes and wandering nose.Any suggetions for homeopathic treatment? We have spent over 2000.at veterinarians to save eyes different Sinbad, they do better than bad again.Steroyds seem to work, but I am worried about the toll they take on his kidneys.He is a wonderful cat wanderer who jumped into our lives on Cinco de Mayo 2 years ago.I hate to make him suffer all the drops and suggestions stuff.Any? I'm sorry, I hope he gets better and everything works. I will pray for you and your cat. Oral L-Lysine is recommended by many veterinary ophthalmologists at a dose of 250-500 mg twice a day. Lysine competes with another amino acid, arginine, the herpes virus must have to reproduce. Lysine has been demonstrated to reduce the severity of ocular symptoms associated with infection of herpes virus (1) and reduce viral shedding during periods of disease recurrence. This does really help. 500 mg to 1000 mg during recess and not when the cat has a flair up. Lysine can be purchased in pill form at any box store and crushed and mixed with wet food. or you can buy a paste lysine made just for cats. I tried the dough and it was easier for the cat to eat the crushed pill in food. It does not help. L-Lysine your driveway vitamins at grocery stores. 500 mg crushed in his daily diet should keep herpes in remission. At the animal hospital where I work we recommend all time. It is an amino acid supplement anti-viral that many people take for herpes as well. It has very little flavor, so it should not change their eating habits. Is not this a kind of eye ointment that the vet can give you. Steroids are bad for an animal if it is taken much. If the eyes continue to stay sick, honey, I know it can be painful, but perhaps put the cat to sleep is the humane thing to do. Believe me, I'm an animal lover, I feed all the strays in the city, but sometimes it takes love difficult to take an animal out of its misery .... I am not qualified to answer your question. But I have to say God sent this gift to you and I can understand why. There are not many people who would do what you have done for so long. It's a chance to chat and you're a wonderful human being. if steroids work use, you will eventually asked him for one thing or another, eyes or kidneys. It is a horrible choice to have to do CommentsThere are no comments.Leave a Comment | Popular My Friends |
