If your veterinarian recommends a smaller dose of milk thistle, those dosages are often based on milk thistle concentrated extract. Herbsmith milk thistle is whole ground seed of milk thistle and because they use the whole seed, there’s 5x more volume of powder than concentrated extract. So, while our daily recommendations are higher, there’s still a comparable amount of active ingredient (3%) needed to be effective.

Cautions: Not to be used in pregnant pets. If animal’s condition worsens or does not improve, stop product administration and consult your veterinarian. Not for use within 48 hours of surgery or anesthesia.
