Could you please suggest a good liver supplement (syrup or tablet) for my 7 yrs old Epileptic labrador? Seizures frequency is once in 2 months for 2-4 minutes depending on what triggered it. Timing has been the same since he was 3 years old. He is on gardenal 30mg once/ day and is otherwise doing well with appetite.

Why do you feel like giving a liver supplement. First get in touch with the liver to know how it's feeling through some liver function profile. Unnecessary things should be avoided in pets.
Next Steps
Try checking his liver enzymes and phenobarbitone levels before adding anything. Your vet knows what to add or stop at a given point of time.
Health Tips
Keep screening your pet periodically. Your pet will be more happy and healthy. Hope this helps. Thanks

In case of normal use, we can use liv52 also, but pets with special needs, we need to check their liver function test to go for better products based on need.
