Question re: vaccination nosodes. LINK ADDED

My lot are due for their fortnightly dose tomorrow but Blue is extremely poorly at the mo.
I know with regular vaccines vets generally advise not to give the vacs until the rabbit is better incase there is an adverse reaction, is this the same for nosodes?

Thanks in advance,
Su.x

How do these work Su??

Basically, they`re a homeopathic type of vaccine, in tablet form.
Each nosode contains the bacteria that causes the disease, so you`re effectively helping bunny to build up an immunity to the disease. Similar to a live vaccine.

Sorry if that`s not a very good explanation, ( my brain ain`t working to well at the mo )! :oops: Hopefully someone with more knowledge of homeopathy will be able to explain it better than me. :D

I know I'm not answering your question but I am bumping it up for you :wink: but do you have a website link?
 
I would assume the same principle applies :? The Bun would need a good immune response for the nosodes to be effective and if their poorly their immune system will be under too much stress.
Dont know for sure as my Buns have conventional vaccinations

Thanks Jane :D Your probably right, will err on the side of caution & not give them to Blue until he is better.

Kayjay: Will post up the link for you later as it`s on my laptop ( I`m on mark`s at the mo) as he carrying out some essential maintenance for me! :D
