Recently, in conjuction with treating my ferret Malachai's stomach ulcer, I heard that the buzz from a few ferret organizations in the New England area was that certain herbal treatments, such as Slippery Elm, are good for ferrets with stomach ulcers. Although I am a believer in herbal and homeopathic remedies for certain ailments, this does not feel right to me. I'd like to ask that the subscribing vets please comment on the above in this forum. I'm sticking to Carafate and Amoxicillin. Bob [Posted in FML issue 1324]
