Best Herbal Remedies For Pet Vomiting

image for: Best Herbal Remedies For Pet Vomiting

Pet vomiting can be scary when it lasts longer than a few days.

Chronic pet vomiting lasts longer than a few days.

Although your pet may have periods of no vomiting, if it persists for a long period of time, consult your veterinarian.

What Causes Pet Vomiting?

There are many causes of chronic pet vomiting.

For example, some of the most common include:

  • Bacterial infection
  • Foreign body
  • Gastritis
  • Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD)
  • Kidney disease
  • Liver disease
  • Neoplasia
  • Pancreatitis
  • Toxicity
  • Viral infection

Most importantly, your veterinarian can diagnose chronic vomiting and rule out other diseases and health problems.

Furthermore, most veterinarians recommend bloodwork and radiography for the first round of diagnosis.

Additionally, if answers are still not obtained, your vet might recommend an endoscopy with or without biopsy for a definitive diagnosis.

Lastly, some vets also use ultrasound.

Motion Sickness And Pet Vomiting

Did you know 1 in 5 dogs experience dog motion sickness when traveling?

Furthermore, 37% of dog owners took a dog on overnight car trips in 2016, according to a survey by the American Pet Products Association.

However, only 6% of dog owners who observed signs of motion sickness reported them to a veterinarian.

3 Symptoms of Pet Motion Sickness

Firstly, pet motion sickness and a virus have similar symptoms. However, pet motion sickness often manifests in a very specific manner through the following signs:

1. Lip Licking – after the car starts moving, you may notice your pet licking their lips. This behavior is a common, early symptom of motion sickness. Next, you may notice dry heaving, whining, or yawning.

2. Drooling – drooling is another common symptom of pet motion sickness. Your pet’s nausea causes their mouth to water like they’re waiting for a treat.

3. Shaking – your pet may shake, pace, or seem restless. Furthermore, if they aren’t antsy, they might seem inactive. Sometimes they just want to lie down and wait to feel better.

Solutions For Pet Vomiting

Treatments vary depending on exactly what is going on with your dog.

For example, if your dog is dehydrated, your vet will probably recommend fluid therapy to rehydrate.

Intestinal bacterial overgrowths require antibiotics.

Western medicine usually treats inflammatory bowel disease with steroids.

Some vets recommend anti-emetic and acid-reducing pharmaceuticals to keep dogs from vomiting.

However, pharmaceuticals only treat the symptoms of vomiting, not the root cause.

Kan Essentials Harmonize the Stomach is composed of a blend of herbs specifically designed to alleviate pet vomiting. Learn more about Western herbs to treat your pet’s digestive upset.

Cang-zhu Atractylodes Rhizome

Veterinarians recommend cang-zhu atractylodes rhizome for indigestion, stomachache, bloating, diarrhea, and loss of appetite.

Tangerine Dried Rind Of Mature Fruit

Most importantly, dried tangerine rind aids digestion and reduces nausea.

Magnolia Bark

Firstly, magnolia bark has been used in formulas to treat nausea and vomiting for centuries.

Red Jujube Fruit

Veterinarians recommend red jujube fruit to improve appetite.

Chinese Licorice Root And Rhizome

Most importantly, the flavonoids present in licorice root were shown in studies to reduce nausea, stomach pain, and heartburn.

Ginger Rhizome

Firstly, in studies, ginger’s effectiveness was comparable to dimenhydrinate (Dramamine). Veterinarians often prescribe dimenhydrinate to pets to treat nausea and vomiting.

Secondly, ginger may help dogs at early stages of bloat by stimulating movement in the stomach.

Thirdly, ginger helps relieve dog upset stomachs by preventing and expelling gas from the digestive tract.
