Way better than the gray-and-purple-factory made stuff.
Seizures are years apart since switching to this product.
Mickey likes the taste much better than others.

Unusual flavor
Most companies offer this product in a vanilla butterscotch flavor. This solution came in beef flavor and my dog has not liked this at all. I asked if I could get it in the other flavor and was told it was not available.

Significantly reduced my dogs seizures...
From FLComments about Potassium Bromide Oral Solution (Compounded)We've been giving this to our dog for years directly from Vetrxdirect. The product works great. My only complain is that the price doubled this year. Not sure why the dramatic increase as it's been the same price for nearly 8 years. -

Stopped My Terrier's Seizures
From Duluth, MNComments about Potassium Bromide Oral Solution (Compounded)My wire fox terrier developed seizures at about 5-years old. One vet was certain he had a brain tumor and wanted to put him on a harsher drug. I did hours of research and found out about Potassium Bromide. He is now 14 and has been on it for about 9 years, without another seizure. Our vet put him on a loading dose to begin with and I am not sure that is a good idea as he paced all night for a couple weeks. He is now down to .08 ml and is doing wonderful. -

In the past my dogs K Bromide has come pre packaged and was pink in color. Today when I opened a new bottle supplied by my vet the color was yellow. Does K Bromide come in different colors for the same strength? Thank You?
-
K-Brovet contains potassium bromide and is pink in color. It is possible for this new product to have the same concentration of potassium bromide as K-Brovet. The color of the medication will depend on the inactive ingredients added to the product, such as flavoring. Verify with your veterinarian that the product you received is the same dose that your dog has been taking. Thank you, VetRxDirect
