Nutramax Denamarin with S-Adenosylmethionine & Silybin Chewable Tablets Liver Supplement for Dogs, 30 count

My dog's liver enzymes were high and taking this brought her numbers down dramatically. She didn't like the taste. So I crushed the pill and mixed it with a small amount of wet cat food. It's hard to give my dog pills because she smells the medication and refuses to take it regardless of what I put the pill in. I felt like I was running out of ways to give her meds. Wet cat food works great! I know the bottle says to give on an empty stomach, but it still brought her numbers down. And it was my vet who used the word "dramatically."

This medication brought her levels down to about 150. It’s better than the levels a year ago that were close to 500. It’s not perfect, but she’s been holding steady at that level for almost a year. I’ll take that and we make the best of it . My Sage is happy, sweet and has never lost her appetite. I just wish she were able to be more active. I miss our hikes.

I got this chewable version of denamarin because my senior boy has a very sensitive stomach. Any solid pills seem to aggravate his stomach and cause him to try to make himself vomit by eating grass. I know, it's bizarre and the vets can't figure it out. He has high ALT levels though so he has to be on something or his liver will eventually fail. He does not like the way these taste which was super frustrating and he's not a picky eater. My vet suggested I create a shell of cream cheese around the pills and that does the trick. He swallows them whole this way but I think they break down quickly enough to not aggravate his tummy. I'm very grateful for this option but I wish the flavor was altered so my dog would just gobble them up. He did bite into the first one and spit it all out and made a yuck face so they must taste pretty awful.

Almost 11 yr old male schnauzer has extremely high triglycerides and is doing awesome on this... after one week starting we saw more energy it was amazing! I only wish our vet would have recommended this years ago. His blood work has been extremely high since he was five years old and they are now just recommending this I don’t know why it took this long. We are hoping to see much better triglycerides blood work in the near future. He has ranged over 1000 before going to a very low-fat dog food but then just 730... hoping for at least half that in December. He seems to be feeling much better and it’s the only change we have made in the last two weeks!
