No Bute, Bute Free etc.... how long to work?

[Bounty]

Am considering trying Cybele on a 'natural' bute alternative, seeing as she'll be needing anti-inflammatories on a longer term basis than previously thought!

How long do they take effect, and would it be safe to keep her on proper 'bute while there is a transition period?
I imagine any bute substitute will take a couple of weeks to reach it's full capabilities, like any other herbal supplement?
Just want to check!

Hi,
My boy is on Buteless for inflammation of the coffin joint. He went straight on to it from 1/2 sachet of Bute every other day.
I have to say he is feeling very well on it at the moment

I like Buteless as you have got the option of using the high strength version, which he is on now as the ground has been hard.
