Low Calcium Preventative Homeopathic Drops: Natural Support in Late Pregnancy and Lactation
Support your dam through late pregnancy and nursing with our Low Calcium Preventative Homeopathic Drops. Expertly sought by The Dog Herbalist and prepared with the guidance of our homeopathic consultant, these gentle drops, made with calcarea phosphorica, are traditionally used in holistic care to support the body's natural mineral balance during the demanding weeks of late pregnancy and lactation. With over 40 years of holistic expertise, we’ve created a gentle option for breeders.
The Wisdom Behind the Blend
Nursing a litter places big demands on a dam's body, particularly with large litters. Homeopathy takes a whole-dog approach, and calcarea phosphorica is traditionally used in homeopathy to support the body during times of growth and high demand.
Is This For Your Dog?
This blend is for breeders and owners who would like to include gentle homeopathic support in their dam's routine in late pregnancy and while nursing, especially with large litters. A good-quality diet suitable for pregnancy and lactation is essential, and please speak to your vet before giving any mineral supplements during pregnancy. These drops are not a treatment for eclampsia (low blood calcium), which is an emergency.
When to Begin the Protocol
Many breeders begin in the final weeks of pregnancy and continue through the peak weeks of nursing, following the directions on the product page, after discussing it with their vet.
Why Homeopathy Matters
Homeopathic drops are quick and easy to give, with nothing to mix into food, which makes them easy to fit into a busy whelping routine.
The Restorative Effects
Breeders who use these drops often tell us their dams seem calm, settled and comfortable while nursing. Every dam is different, so please watch her closely and keep a little diary to share with your vet.
Herbalist’s Tip: Make sure your dam always has fresh water and a high-quality diet suitable for pregnancy and lactation, as advised by your vet. Many breeders also use our Milk Boost Homeopathic Drops during nursing.
