Kaolin
別名: Kaogel VP, Prokolin

Ensure your pet has access to plenty of fresh water. * **Administration**: Shake the liquid well before measuring the dose. * **Timing**: Give this medication at least 2 hours apart from other oral medications, as it can bind to them and stop them from being absorbed properly. * **When to call the vet**: If the diarrhea persists for more than 48 hours, contains blood, or if your pet becomes lethargic, stops eating, or starts vomiting, contact your veterinarian immediately.
劑量必須由獸醫按你寵物的個別情況決定。切勿在沒有獸醫指導下給予人類藥物或其他寵物的處方藥。
