Herbal Therapy in Veterinary Medicine

Animal treatments are frequently inspired by human herbal medicine, but veterinary expertise is required to pick the acceptable formula and to deal with differences in metabolism between animals and humans, and between the various animal species. Herbal treatment must only be administered after an accurate diagnosis has been made. Because of the differences in physiology between animal species and humans, and therefore the potential for harm if herbs are administered inappropriately, only a properly trained veterinarian should prescribe herbal treatments. Herbal veterinary health products include herbal methionine, poultry feed additives, cattle feed supplements, immunity booster, veterinary medicines and feed additives etc.
