Plantaeris is a gentle, natural vet-formulated supplement to help pet diarrhea. It is designed to help reduce symptoms of diarrhea and maintain normal bowel function. It also helps soothe and relieve spasms, pain, and discomfort. Since this herbal formulation helps balance the body, it can be used on a longer-term basis if your pet suffers from frequent diarrhea (though it is vital to understand the underlying cause of diarrhea).
Diarrhea is a symptom of digestive disorders. In pets, it can be caused by inflammatory bowel disease, food allergies, parasites, or commonly an underlying condition, such as hyperthyroidism or kidney disease.
To help with pet diarrhea, make sure your pet is getting adequate water and nutrition as diarrhea can lead to weight loss, dehydration, vomiting, and lethargy. Remember that a pet can be eating the same food for years and still develop a food allergy to it. Talk to your vet to rule out any underlying conditions.
For days when your pet is suffering from acute diarrhea, the Plantaeris dosage may be safely doubled. You can then bring down the dosage to normal after the episode has passed. Try adding a bit of pumpkin to their diet to help bulk up stools.

How to Administer
Shake well before use. The easiest method is to use the dropper provided and place the drops into your pet’s food or favorite treat. You can also use the dropper and squirt directly into the pet’s mouth.
Some pets can be finicky. If this occurs consider hiding the drops in foods most pets love, such as fish, chicken, yogurt or a favourite treat. If your pet only eats dry food then soak a few kibbles at feeding time.
