    Please keep in mind that posts on this forum are from members of the public sharing personal opinions. It is not a replacement for qualified medical advice from a veterinarian. Many illnesses share similar symptoms but require different treatments. A medical exam is necessary for an accurate diagnosis, without which appropriate treatment cannot be given.

    You should always consult your vet before following any suggestions for medication or treatment you have read about. The wrong treatment could make your rabbit worse or mean your vet is unable to give the correct treatment because of drug interactions. Even non prescription drugs can do harm if given inappropriately.

I’ve been giving Phillip one of these a day for the past week for his arthritis, and they seem to be really helping. He’s zooming about all over the place and doing those on the spot binkies. It’s the most active I’ve seen him in months, he’s obviously feeling very happy in himself :love:

Anyway, I suddenly had a slight moment of panic this morning when I was giving him his heart medicine. Is it possible that it would interfere with this? For example I know John said not to feed too much willow as that can affect his heart. I’m sure it’s fine but just wanted to check? Will ring the vets for clarification if nobody knows! Phillip is on metacam and frusol daily. The oxbow ingredients are below plus a photo of Phillip waking me up this morning :love:

Apart from Frusol what other 'heart meds' is he on ? If I were you I'd give JC a call anyway, as Professional advice about potential interactions would be my preference :)
