Vitamin C, Zinc and Copper provide nutritional support for the other ingredients. Overall, the product helps promote complete joint-ligament support. In early March, I began to see some improvement, a slight increase in his use of the right front leg. I continued the shots of Adequan, and raised the dosage of glucosamine and chondroitin. Bugs had his last Adequan injection the first week of April 1998.
Bugs continues to show improvement.
Surely, I will never be able to credit one particular portion of the treatment plan to his recovery. The fact that I introduced an assortment of nutritional supplements along with the Adequan therapy will make it difficult to pin down which of them was instrumental in the recovery I have seen so far. I don't really believe that it matters. Adequan is likely the most active agent in Bugs' recovery, since it has been used with such positive results by Dr. Cindi Bossart in the past. No, not alone certainly, but I do believe they probably contributed to the ability of his body to deal with the OCD and its related stress.
