> Even less expensive (afraid I'm penny pinching) use Kaolin & morph with probiotic yoghurt, which has been O.K'd by their vet.
If it's OK'd by the vet then that's fine, although the probiotics work in a different way, more in synch with the animals' own system. I was once told by as lay person I could use Loperamide on a dog with the runs - then found out later it is NOT to be used on any breeds which may have the MDR1 gene

Understanding of the way the digestive system works has come on in leaps and bounds in recent years. I'm grateful my vet did NOT give AB's. but just gave me the Yumpro Plus Bio Active. So, just the consult fee and £6 for the probiotic.... which was worth it to know I can buy that over the counter (cheaper online) and keep in my medicine box. I guess all dogs are different, but the ProKolin didn't work on mine and I won't try it again.
