Hi everyone,
Has anyone here given Zylkene ( alpha-S1 tryptic casein) to a cat or dog? Did it work? How much did you pay?
My vet told me about this product when I asked how I could help my 8 year old dog Arielle adjust when my nearly 17 year old dog Mickey passes on... I'm getting used to the fact that Mickey won't be with me for long :( and because of Arielle's behaviour in certain past events, I know she will have a hard time adjusting to his absence so I'm trying to plan ahead as I always do!
My vet told me Zylkene (www.vetoquinol.ca/en/index.asp?page=302 ) is natural and does take time to be effective although as with any solution, some animals don't respond at all. Arielle would need a daily dose of 450 mg and for 30 days, it costs around 75$ :headslap: I don't know how long she would have to be on Zylkene: weeks, months, years?? I'm searching to find out if a cheaper human equivalent exists but no luck.
Thank you for any feedback you may have to offer :)
