I used immuno regulin on my Smokey when he was having
high fevers. The vet also gave him injections of
Winstrol every other week for about a month or maybe a
little longer. The immuno regulin helped Smokey. He
hasn't had a fever since we started him on it (fingers
crossed). I give it to him subq not IV. Smokey hates
the vet so much I don't think they could even give it
to him IV. He gets worst every visit. Now I give it
to him every month or every other month. I did read
hear that I think it is Best Friends uses it every
month on their babies. I think I will do every month
now. That is the only treatment I have used on
Smokey. So far the only problem he has had was the
fevers. I hope this might help you.
