Hi: Do I need a prescription to order Denamarin chewables? Thought a prescription was needed? Thanks, Lawrence

No, Scott. There is no prescription required. We had previously been getting them from our vet, but they didn't have chewable. Chewable works best for us (although pill pockets are wonderful). Our 13 old schnauzer has liver problems but his lab values have improved on Denamarin.

I don't think we needed a prescription. We have a Toy Schnauzer that has liver problems. Since being put on Denamarin her liver test has gone down from 300 to 110, the Vet wants it lower so we are continuing to give Denamarin to her. They also thought she had a liver shunt. Hope this helps you.

Scott, You do not need a prescription. Our 12 year old Mini Schnazer did see an improvement in liver function.

Not that I'm aware of; you'd need to get the chewable ones. My kitty takes her meds mixed with her moist food 2 x/day. Has never been an issue that way. These were much harder to crush, so I went back to the chewables, also available thru Amazon. Hope that helps.

Sorry - I transferred the contents to an airtight jar. My 130 pound 11 year old black lab with Cushings Disease much prefers these chewies to the tablets. I believe the ingredients are the same as the pills - check on line. I break two of them up in his food every morning and they are not left behind like the tablets. Good luck.

My dog threw up with chewables but had no problems with the regular tablets. I read a lot on line about both. Both work. It seems to be a per dog preference. Noticed more small dogs seemed to have difficulty with the chewable which are large (almost quarter sized) and have a strong odor like valerian root.

I purchased the chewable tablets and use a mortar and pestle to crush it and place into her food. I never had the soft chews but I doubt that my dog would eat them. She will not eat any chewable medication. I bought the stainless steel mortar and pestle from Amazon and it works and cleans well.

I have found it difficult to get either into my dog, but I think I'd go with regular. If you have a large dog (mine is 65lbs), the regular pill is so big that it is hard to hide in food and difficult to force them to take. Similarly, the chewable is not tasty, so my dog won't take it voluntarily, and it's so smelly that you can't hide it in food either, and again, it's a lot of pill to hide (does is 2 1/2/ tables for mine). So, since both are hard to get them to take, it's easier to hide/ force 1 pill that 2+. But I really wish they'd find a way to make these smaller.

It does not list Sylibin; however, it does list 80mg of Milk thistle and Sylibin is supposedly a "standardized extract of milk thistle seeds." I'm not sure if they consider that the same thing or not. My vet from Banfield told us to give our dog the Adenosyl for his liver and it has improved the numbers a lot. You don't need a prescription to buy it. I think you need a prescription for Denamarin. You may want to ask your vet about the milk thistle and whether it's the same as Sylibin or not...

The last time we ordered them they came in a "new smaller capsule" that was really tiny. I'm out of them right now or I'd measure for you. They are not chewable. I don't know if they could be opened up and added to liquids.

As long as the bottle says, "chewable", they are. My dog likes the taste. However, he's a huge boy and I think he swallows them whole most of the time. I still only buy the chewable because he will not swallow the capsules without them being hidden in food. I've researched Denosyl and found that it is most effective when given an hour before eating in the morning. That means that a sleepy owner (Me) had to get it down a sleepy dog. The chewable is 1000 times easier to do at that hour. I will also add that my dog takes Rimadyl and Denosyl took his liver enzymes from very high to normal in about 3 weeks, so its been well worth the investment and effort.

They are not chewable....I've changed to Piping Rock vitamins (available on line from Piping Rock Vitamin site)...I've never purchased chewables. All I have gotten are either gel or powder inside. Have you done a search on line with "chewable" in the search line? Sorry I can't be more helpful.

No prescription is required for purchasing any of the foods we offer. There are no medications in the food. They are simply formulated to help with or not do harm for the different ailments that they are made for. Thanks

I think this should be a question for the manufacturer. It seems too much like medical advice to say whether to take a supplement without it's "sealed container." I have started taking mine every other day because I do notice a 'fishy" burp occasionally. Otherwise I like them. I would look for a smaller pill for your son, even if he has to take more than one to get the necessary amount.
