Thank you for your response Dr. Falconer. The vitamin C was actually given IM not IV. Most importantly, thank you for educating us on homeopathy. I used a homeopathic remedy very successfully, on the advice of a human homeopathic physician decades ago, in ridding my dog of giardia. Of course when I mentioned it to my regular veterinarian he said "oh no sometimes it just goes away on its own." I have also used flower essences successfully on some conditions. The flower essences are less "scary" for me than homeopathy. I have been strongly cautioned not to use homeopathic remedies based on just symptoms. Which remedy to use and at which potency and for how long is daunting to me to say the least. You mentioned the "difficult things about using homeopathic remedies" in your article, but also the safety in your replies. I will check out your snake bite kit. Thanks again.
PS I am using a homeopathic remedy currently with an older spayed bitch for urinary incontinence. It seems to be a slow process; would love an article on this in the future if not already archived somewhere.
