the holistic vet called me , the blood results from Rubys visit on 1/05/09 are in, and her BUN and creatine are high.. he wants to put her on kidney supplements. her BUN/creatinine came back at 33 (HIGH) and her Urea Nitrogen came back at 46 (HIGH)
her thyroid test was sent to Michigan State and came back Normal.
the kidney supplements are:
Renafood pills 2x a day
renatrophin pills 2x a day
renapath 10 drops a day
kidney tone 10 drops a day
input anyone? i have to research these drugs to make sure there are no grains or chicken in them, as ruby is allergic to those so far, and i dont want her to have an allergic reaction . the holistic vet said he would make up something else if she cant have these
Supplements for Kidney issues

This is a Standard Process product, which is a company with a really good reputation from everything I've heard. It uses bovine kidney, so it shouldn't pose a problem.

From what I can find neither of these contain chicken, but rather are homeopathic preparations of herbs. Regardless though, since they are homeopathic, I'd be really, really, surprised if she reacted to anything in them outside of perhaps an aggravation of symptoms either temporarily as part of the healing process or because it's just not working for her.
I can't find the sites I originally looked at, but this ingredient list does included organs from unspecified animal(s). My guess is that they use cow, as that seems to be the normal, but again, it's a homeopathic preparation.....
Is this the same Kidney Tone? The dosing seems off....
This version makes more sense given the dosing recommendation....

i dont know about the kidney tone, as i cant find anything conclusive on it..
i do have at home Kidney Strengthener from Only Natural and their ingredients are:
Ingredients: Crabapple, Eucalyptus, Dog Rose, Mimulus, and other natural flowers.
i am waiting for the holistic vet to call me with a website for the other 2 things so i can research them. ruby is fine with pork and turkey, we havent done beef yet for her food trial so i want to make sure she isnt allergic to beef if any of these have beef products in them. i will start her beef trial tonight to see if she does ok with it, as the vet said if she is allergic to beef he will have to make up a different potion for her..
