Homeopathy is a therapy that uses only completely natural products with different healing purposes. Homeopathy was developed to be used only in people, but its effectiveness has led many people to apply it to their animals.
The products effectively help to improve certain health problems. Want to know more? There are several homeopathic products on the market, closer than you think.
Keep reading to know the different homeopathic products for dogs, knowing where to find them and how they should be managed so that they work effectively and safely.
What are homeopathic products?
There are different types of homeopathic products on the market. For this reason, let's start by highlighting some basic differences that any consumer should be aware of:
For a start, you can find solutions or simple medications, which consist of the same type of homeopathy that people take. They are medicines where only a substance extracted from a single source is included.
There are also other medications, called composite solutions. These remedies or compound solutions are products which include different substances, extracted from different sources. Generally, substances included in the same product work in synergy, which means that the action of one substance helps and complements the action of the other (and vice versa). Compound drugs are generally focused on the symptomatic treatment of different diseases.
Simple or compound: Which product is best for my dog?
If you've never tried homeopathy before, deciding which type of product is best for your dog can be a daunting task. To start with, you should pay attention to the problem or illness your puppy has (which must be diagnosed by the veterinarian).
If you only know the different possibilities, you can opt for a simple generic medicine to improve your overall health. It's a more generic product.
If, on the contrary, your dog has a specific illness, you should consider using compound drugs, since they are more individualized products, specific to a specific circumstance.
Where and how do I find out about homeopathic products for dogs?
The first recommendation that PeritoAnimal has for you is to resort to a homeopathic veterinarian, as he is the person who can best guide the tutor in this regard. In addition to having the necessary knowledge for its application, the homeopathic veterinarian is familiar with the current market and knows the best products for each case.
If what you are looking for is a simple remedy, you can find simple homeopathic medicines at any pharmacy. There is a wide variety, so just contact the person in charge of the establishment.
Finally, and in the case of composite products, there is a small obstacle: those that can be found in pharmacies are generally intended for people, not being a general product for animal use. For this reason, we recommend that you use the first option if your dog has a real problem and you want to treat him with homeopathy.
