Natura Petz Organics Break It Up! Herbal Medicine for Stone Breaking for Cats, 150 count

There is no “magic” timeframe of use, however, if it is the first stone cycle and a small breed animal, then 3 months is generally an appropriate time of use. If it is not the first stone cycle, then the time frame of use is 4-6 months. If it’s a large breed, then 4-6 months is the norm for the first cycle, and generally, even if it’s a second cycle or more, usually a 6 month period of use is sufficient. Generally symptoms are a strong indicator of how the pet is responding. Crying, yelping, straining, inability to void (this could be a medical emergency referred to as urethral blockage), little to no urine emitted anxiety, pacing, panting, etc. are all symptoms of stones and/or urinary inflammation and infection. If the pet is displaying any of these signs, and after 3-6 months use, they return, that indicates more time is needed, but it is usually rare. Always consult with your veterinarian for best results.
