Great experience!
From UndisclosedComments about Visbiome Vet Probiotic for Pets 40 CapsulesMy dog has had some digestive issues in the past and began giving her Visbiome daily. It was hard to find locally and I was pleased to find it at Vet Rx Direct. The price is better than at my vet. I was concerned about doing mail order as it has to be refrigerated. I was impressed with the insulated packaging and cold packs. There was even an indicator on the label to let you know if it had not been held at an appropriate temperature. It arrived in perfect condition and in a timely manner. It was a great experience. -

Q & A
-
I see that a puppy should wait until 6 months of age to start visbiome. How much should a 6 month old puppy weighing 7 lbs get of visbiome daily??
-
Per the manufacturer, dosing after a puppy is 6 months of age or older is based on its weight. Animals with a weight <20lbs should take 1-2 capsules daily. Animals weighing 40-60lbs take 2-3 capsules and those weighing over 60lbs should take 4 capsules daily. It is recommended to contact your veterinarian to discuss appropriate dosing for your dog.

My dog eats home cooked food; recipe prepared by a university nutritionist vet. Food gets warmed in microwave. Does this heating diminish the effect of Visbiome Vet High Potency??
-
According to the manufacturer, Visbiome should not be microwaved. High temperatures may diminish the potency of Visbiome. It is recommended to heat your dog’s meal separately before adding Visbiome. Visbiome should be stored in the refrigerator, although it can be left at room temperature for up to one week without adversely affecting potency.

I always return bottle to fridge..but I woke up this morning and found that the remaining 7 capsules were in pill bottle on kitchen counter. I failed to return bottle to the fridge. :/ I have put bottle back in fridge. Will the be safe to give him??

My cat has ibd and is currently taking 5 mg of prednisolone twice daily. She is also going through a stretch of serious diarrhea. I started her on Visbiome Vet Probiotic 1 cap daily 5 days ago and seems that her diarrhea has gotten worse. I give it to her for dinner w/ her food and her pred within an hour.?
-
Nausea, vomiting, and/or diarrhea are possible side effects of prednisolone. Visbiome may also cause an upset stomach, and for these reasons, it is recommended that both medications be given with food. The concern with prolonged and/or worsening diarrhea is dehydration. In your case, it is strongly recommended that you contact your veterinarian, to ensure your cat isn’t losing too many fluids.

I ordered regular visbiome (in the green bottle) can I give that to my dog or do I need to order the one for pets?? I didn't realize they were different products.?
-
According to the manufacturer’s website, Visbiome Vet contains the same 8-strains proprietary blend of probiotic bacteria as is found in the human Visbiome product (in the green packaging). Both products contain the same amount of probiotic bacteria per capsule. The human Visbiome product is also available in packets containing 450 billion live bacteria per dose, which can also be used for larger dogs/other animals with higher probiotic needs. Please speak to your veterinarian about which product is best for your dog.

If kept refrigerated, how long does the product maintain its potency? I'd like to order to have on hand but may delay starting my dog on the probiotics for a week or two.?
-
It is recommended that Visbiome be kept refrigerated at all times, however the manufacturer does say that it can be stored at room temperature for up to one week without adversely affecting potency. If it is stored under refrigeration the product is guaranteed through “best if used by” date.
