...give 250 mg of L-Lysine TWICE a day (so a total of 500 mg), and during a flare-up they double that. In extreme cases, some folks add Lactoferrin to the mix. As far as Bovine, Bovine what? Pancreas? Bovine simply implies "cow or steer", does it not? Maybe you are actually thinking...

Yes, Bovine Lactoferrin is what I meant. I said it in my head, but it didn’t get typed out. I bought the L-lysine at our local Pet Supply Plus & directions are 1 scoop once a day, which is 500 mg. I’ll contact our vet Monday morning & see if it’s possible to pick something up without having to...

...ml twice/day (this one is quite expensive, since I am outside the US. Would appreciate references if someone is currently using it!) 3) Lactoferrin 250 mg/day ---> I have seen people seem to divide the dose into two oral administrations of 125 mg by splitting the capsule and dividing the...

...virus. Sounds like it, and it's very common. Many people add L-Lysine to their cats diets to help with it, and some people also add Lactoferrin. If they are having an outbreak, sometimes antibiotics actually help because there can be a bacterial secondary infection. For the teeth and gum...

L-lysine is in my opinion like a human taking vitamin D, it’s good for you but not a cure or a way to stop the illness. Herpes is a very intense virus and in my experience will require more than anything otc can provide. If you can see an ophthalmologist, I highly recommend doing so. Like humans...

...ointments are definitely needed, as well as an increase in the amount of L-Lysine (IF you are using it at all). And some people also add Lactoferrin to the mix to help with immunity. Here are a couple articles that may be helpful: https://thecatsite.com/c/ocular-eye-herpes-in-cats/...

@Ellereh, have you tried Lactoferrin as part of the regimen?

Hey, I forgot to ask about something. Did you find that antihistamine helped your cat right away or after a couple of weeks of use? Thank you.

...We use a hard sided carrier draped with a towel when we do breathing treatments with our asthmatic kitty. We use a human nebulizer and hold it up to the carrier. I haven't had success with lactoferrin for my kitties when using it to treat other things, so I can't help with that question.

...into his foods may be the only way to treat this. Now I think the best thing to do is wait to hear back. If it's Feline Herpes causing this, in future you may be able to help keep it at bay by using L-Lysine and/or Lactoferrin mixed in his food on a daily basis, or at least when he's around.

...issues, we try to economize where we can whenever possible. :) Also, is there anything new that's being recommended as an alternative to lactoferrin to help modulate a kitty's immune system? It really worked wonders to help calm Buddy's wonky immune system, but it makes him throw up every...

...and acting as if she feels well, apart from the episodic behaviors I've described, which began several months ago and seem to be getting a bit worse. I also have ordered lactoferrin in case this is an unusual presentation of a herpes flare, but the more I read, the more I think that's unlikely.

My thoughts exactly. I immediately thought, ok, immune system suppressed with the steroid, this could be Feline Herpes! So I, too, would try the L-Lysine and possibly Lactoferrin Here's a (long) thread about using them together: Stubborn herpes infection? Add Lactoferrin in addition to Lysine

...For the Herpes, many people use L-Lysin everyday, 250 mg twice per day, then if there is a flare-up, give it at a dose of 500 mg twice per day. Some people also give Lactoferrin. Here is a thread where one poster gave her daily regimen for her cat with Herpes with good results: Herpes Virus

...better solution? I don't have a specialist close, we live in a small european country. So if anyone had similar experience, please let me know. Do you think that her congestion progressed into asthma? Also, would you recommend giving Lactoferrin to an FIV+ cat who developed asthma? Thank you.

Sounds like could be the herpes virus? Stubborn herpes infection? Add Lactoferrin in addition to Lysine

Sounds like could be herpes. What's more effective than lysine is lactoferrin, the bovine kind. https://thecatsite.com/threads/stubborn-herpes-infection-add-lactoferrin-in-addition-to-lysine.267703/

...to fly him that far immuno-comprimised. Anyone ever treat an FiV pos. cat w/ ANY ideas? Supplements I've been told are; Spirulina, Lactoferrin & S. Boullardi for GI health. TY for any ideas anyone has. ;) I SOO want to help his Immune System. I know also Lysine Powder can help but I've been...

...I know, I know, some folks think it doesn't work, but a lot of people use it anyway on their FHV cats and swear by it. And some add Lactoferrin to the regimen during flare-ups, if this is what is happening. But why not go with option 1 & 2. And 3 for that matter, if the Vet thinks there...

What is a good quality brand of Bovine Lactoferrin for my cats? I was going to purchase Jarrow Lactoferrin but it is either discontinued, out of stock or on back order everywhere I look!
