Vitamin C Dosage for Pyometra?
The sodium ascorbate vitamin C is the easiest on the stomach of your dog.
- 5-20 pounds 500-1,000 mg
- 20-80 pounds 1,000-2,000 mg
- Over 80 pounds 2,000-4,000 mg
Instructions
- The suggested dosages above are to be give three times a day.
- Do not divide the dose by three, use the listed amount each time you dose your dog.
- On the first day of treatment, you may even wish to give each dose 4 or 5 times and then use the protocol three times a day. Once the infection is resolved, continuing one dose of the protocol daily for a month can help prevent a re-occurrence.
- If you only have one or two of the three items for the protocol available, use what you have and secure the remaining items as soon as possible.
- The hardest part of the protocol may be getting your dog to take the remedies.
- Be gentle and creative. Figure out what treats tempt your dog the most. Cooked chicken or liver may work well to mix the ingredients with.
- If your dog refuses foods take the ingredients for each dose and mix them together with some water to make the ingredients thin enough to put into a syringe. Slowly and gently give the solution to your dog a little at a time. It is okay if it takes 10 -15 minutes to get the solution in to your dog.
- Keep your dog comfortable, clean and warm while she is recovering.
