Dietary Supplement Use in Canine Epilepsy
Owners of newly diagnosed epileptic dogs often introduce dietary supplements or changes in diet in an effort to reduce seizure frequency or severity and/ or to prevent or reduce the adverse effects of antiepiÂleptic drugs (AEDs). In a recently published study, clinicians evaluated the frequency with which owners administered dietary supplements, which supplements were commonly given, and the owners’ rationale for or against using those supplements.
