Homeopathic Medicine for Dog Epilepsy

Hi Melissa,

When treating an illness using holistic medicine, whether it’s Homeopathy, Acupuncture/Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine, Chiropractic, etc. you must treat the WHOLE patient. You are currently treating the ‘imbalance’ in the patient, the symptoms, rather than the underlying root issue that is causing the seizures.

Therefore, when you wrote,
“I’ve been looking for homeopathic medicine online to give her as well as the phenobarbital. I’m so confused as to which one I should give her. Can you please recommend one?”

A remedy must ‘fit’ the patient. Choosing a single remedy without taking into account the ‘constitution’ of the patient would be similar to prescribing a conventional drug.

In this case, your dog had a seizure and was prescribed phenobarbital. In Holistic medicine, every patient is an individual. Therefore, one patient with a seizure, may NOT get the same remedy as another patient that also has seizures.

It would be best to seek the help of a holistic veterinarian, to ‘take the case’ and work out the best remedy to fit your dog! As you are in Las Vegas, Nevada, I offer MY services to you at the Animal Kingdom Veterinary Hospital! Call for an appointment!

It is also very important to adjust the diet, so that it’s the healthiest diet possible. This will help immensely with the healing process. 10 Best Dog Food Options
