URI treatments

ponygal1129 Mar 27, 2006 06:44 AM

My kitty seems to be coming on with a mild URI (nasal drip, occassional sneezing). I've heard that adding L-Lysine, Ecenicia(SP??) and Vitamin C will help. Can someone tell me what the recommended ammounts are of each of these and whether or not I need to increase them gradually (I've heard Vit C can be irritating to tummy).

Try 500mg each of lysine and Vit C twice a day.

Can I give any type of Vitamin C? Are there certain kinds that are better suited so as not to cause stomach problems?
