I have posted here about my dogs problems. He has had grumbling pancreatitis for years though we didn't know that's what it was just thought he had a sensitive tum to something in his diet. However he has been diagnosed 18 months ago approx. by vet and a couple of months ago had a really bad turn with d & V and lost a lot of blood from his bottom. He recovered after 2 days in vets with drips etc. and we have him on Hills I/D low fat diet and an acid reducing pill with rantidine. However he is still having days when he is out of sorts in the mornings mainly and wont eat and seems depressed. I have seen a Pancreatic Enzyme Capsule on the net and wonder if anyone has used it ? Lypex.
 
Thanks v much, have read with interest. Interesting it says antacids not shown to be beneficial , as this seems to be a favourite medication.
Will mention this to vet tomorrow !
This little dog was my late husbands dog and followed him everywhere, now he sticks to me like glue, the thought of losing him to anything
(which I know is inevitable,) fills me with despair.
 
Sorry I've never heard of it. However, it does take my mum's JRT a while to get over a pancreatitis flare-up.
