Hi Glenn,
Maybe the dose of Devils Club could be reduced?

This issue keeps popping up, but always with anecdotal
stories. Here's
another, personal experience. As is the case with all ferret
lovers, I
searched constantly for the "magic potion" that would give
my little one a
little more quality life. I tried Devil's Club on my Chuki
about a year
ago. He was 7 then and also had concurrent diseases that
ruled out surgery.
The first morning dose of Devil's Club resulted in the most
frightening day
ever, in that he became lethargic to the point that I feared
an insulinoma
seizure. I spent the day giving him hi-protein Gerbers baby
food as often as
he would take it and had the Karo syrup ready. The following
day, he was his
normal self and the Devil's Club went in the trash can.
There is no control
over the manufacturing of herbal medicine and you have no
idea what you are
putting in your ferret, nor do the people that make it.
