If your pet's seizure condition cannot be cured

seizures in pets



In the past, the unique treatment options available were strong anticonvulsant that could have important side applies. These still may be your only option. But, more natural approaches have been found to help some pets, either prior to stronger medications or in addition to them so that you may be able to lower the dose. There are a variety of treatment options that contain a natural diet, acupuncture, nutritional supplements, homeopathy, herbs, and conventional medications.
As mentioned above, give your pet a human grade diet, free of chemicals and additives. Also, remove other toxins from your pet's environment. Clean with natural products and utilize more natural flea, tick, and heartworm prevention measures.
Decrease stress in your pet's life. Try to avoid sudden changes in his environment, loud noises, and other stressful situations.
You can also try herbs that act as sedatives. These include valerian root, kava, skullcap and oatstraw. Note that when using herbs and supplements, you may desire to lower the dosage of other anticonvulsants.
Several supplements appear to help in preventing seizures. Try an antioxidant combination of Vitamin C, E, B-6, and selenium. Your vet can recommend the dosage for your pet. Magnesium and DMG  are other helpful supplements.
Acupuncture is another helpful option which has helped to control seizures in many pets. Sometimes just placing an ear acupuncture tack in a dog's ear will stop seizures, and this only requires one acupuncture visit.
If the ear tack doesn't act, gold implants can be placed in various locations under a pet's head. Or your pet can be treated with traditional chinese acupuncture.
As you can see, there are many natural approaches to treating seizures in pets. These should help your beloved pet to live a normal and agreeable life.
