Yucca Intensive Pet meds

 
Filed under Dr. Dym's Vet Blog
From the wonderful company Azmira comes another non-drug alternative to help our pets suffering from many chronic inflammatory disorders, including crippling arthritis, frustrating skin allergies, and inflammatory digestive disorders. With its powerful natural steroidal plant derived saponins, this product exerts a wonderful anti inflammatory effect in helping manage these skin, digestive and joint disorders, especially when combined with other natural antioxidant products like Proanthozone, as well as Super Pure Omega 3 fatty acids.

Yucca Intensive can also help cleanse the liver and kidneys as well by promoting blood flow and tissue repair. I find it quite safe to use with most supplements, and medications like Phenobarbital and thyroid medication. I have also found it very safe when used at the same time as the commonly prescribed pain medication Tramadol.   Due to the natural steroid effect of its plant components, one must be slightly cautious if a pet is taking full doses of commonly prescribed anti-inflammatories such as Rimadyl, Deramaxx, Metacam and Prednisone.  The same can be said of patients on heart medications, as Yucca may predispose to mild fluid retention in such patients.

I would consult your veterinarian in those individual cases.  I often find that animal guardians can often use this product along with natural antioxidants and omega 3 fatty acids first, often eliminating the need for stronger prescription drugs.  The only occasional problem I have seen is in palatability in certain pets, as the oral drops are quite concentrated. However, when mixed with a little broth, gravy, olive oil, canned food, yogurt or peanut butter,  as well as pet’s favorite treat, this problem of strong taste is often avoided.
