    Re: Here is another stupid question // you're probably sick of me, but

    Why looking for alternative medications, a RI is something serious and while alternative medications may alieviate the simptoms the RI keeps lingering and ultimately becomes fatal.

    A RI is not the equivalent of a cold in human but more of pneumonia obviously you would not try to get rid of a pneumonia with tree oils.

    A GOOD vet (not one talking about tree oil ) will run a culture to established what kind of RI you are dealing with, prescribe the right anti-biotics (injectable not oral) and will do so for a length of at least 30 days.

    Now if a RI persist even with proper treatment the animal immune system might be weak and compromise or you might be dealing with something different that does present itself as a RI but that more difficult to treat.
