When I saw he was getting worse l stopped giving him his medicine, as he could keep nothing on his stomach. He was troubled with collie very much, and used to scream when he had a touch of it. I did not know what it was to close my eyes, day or night. I gave him few drops of LAXAKOLA and it relieved him. 1 gave it to him few times and it worked like charm, and he now rests pretty fair all night.
