What dosage is right for my dog?
The proper dosage of Yunnan Baiyao capsules is extremely important, as is taking care to keep the dog on a proper cycle. Do not treat your dog for more than 5 days with Yunnan Baiyao, as their system will then need a 5-day cycle with no medication before starting the 5-day treatment cycle again. This helps to ensure that their body does not become immune to the healthy effects of the medication and its' antibacterial properties. Extended use simply results in immunity, destroying the useful properties of the medication entirely.
Below is a useful dosage chart by weight designed specifically for dogs. Please remember to approve all treatments through your veterinarian, as you do not want to add a treatment that may counteract or even cause a reaction with any medication or treatment they are already administering to your pet.

Again, remember to stick to a 5 on/ 5off cycle in order to make the most of the benefits of the medication and consult your veterinarian for a more detailed plan for your pet if necessary. Treatment of cancer is serious and any drug interactions must be monitored closely by your veterinarian to be handled in a swift manner.
