Below are some recent questions we've received regarding Samylin Liver Supplement for Dogs, including answers from our team.
Helen Gilbert
Having difficulty getting my dog to swallow the medium tablet now. Can I crush it and add to food? Thanks
Yes it is fine to crush the tablet and give it in food. Samylin is also available in powder form which might be easier the next time you buy it.
Patricia Hickey
Can I get a refund then
If you accidentally order the wrong product, you can return it to us (at your own expense). It it arrives back to us and you have taken appropriate care with the product, we will be happy to refund your full purchase price.

I've just ordered Samylin Liver Supplement for dogs is it okay to give to cats because my have it to me last time
Samylin is marketed just for dogs by the manufacturer and so we have to follow this lead and advise that it is intended just for dogs. However all the active ingredients are sometimes used in cats and the main ingredient is indeed regarded as helpful and very safe for cats with liver trouble. If you choose to use it in a cat this is up to you, but I think it would be safe.

hi, doc, i bot samylin for years and always mixed with food and other supplements like fish oil, probiotic and vitamin c. my dog has been ok and didnt have any stomach upset. i am wondering if this way of feeding is ok and any restriction when feeding samylin. thank you!!
Samylin is usually given with food and it can certainly be given with the other supplements you mention. I do not see any problem with you doing this. There are some supplements which can potentially cause trouble in themselves, particularly those containing vitamins A or D. Overdosing those can cause trouble. As long as you avoid that and you generally only give supplements in the quantities recommended by the manufacturer, it should be safe. You might not need to be giving so many supplements; most dogs do not need them if the general diet is good quality. However this is up to you. Obviously check with your own vet if you are unsure about anything, or about your dogs medical conditions generally.

Because dog is higher levels of liver saemilli
to be eating falls was bad liver numbers, Could you recommend if you have anything
better. We ask, please! "please"
Samylin is regarded as one of the best liver supplements and it is likely to be as good as any supplement of this type. Some liver conditions can respond to antibiotics or steroids or other prescription medication, so your own vet can advise you on these. Ideally you need to make a precise diagnosis and then treat that condition as well as you can. Raised liver enzyme levels usually indicates liver damage, but tells you nothing about why that damage has occurred. This should be investigated. Sometimes it can be caused by a bad reaction to other medication which has been given, so if your dog is on any other medication which could be causing the damage, you should consider stopping that immediately.

Are these given on an empty tummy as there are no details in the box.. I assume the powder is sprinkled on the food but are the tablets also to be taken with food
Thank you
This product is normally taken with food. The tablets can be given whole or crushed, but some food is normally given at the same time or afterwards. The powder is much better given with some food.
Maryann Rice
If the dog stops taking this can it damage it thanks
Hi Maryann,
If the vet has recommended you stop giving this to your dog then that's fine. Otherwise the dog would just not be getting any liver support.
Hope this helps,
Thanks

What is the difference between small and medium breed?Is it only capacity of difference or there are other differences or ingredients?
The difference is purely in the amount of ingredients per sachet, they are the same otherwise.
Allan Feliciano
My cat weighs seven kilos and his ALT has been so high. We have been giving him two packs of samylin for months. Should we be giving him ONE or TWO?
It is safe to give 2 sachets for such a large cat, but I would be tempted to give just one sachet daily from now on. I would also suggest that if your cat is overweight (it certainly sounds like it must be) then very gradual weight loss would be very helpful too. Fat builds up in the liver and is not a good thing.
