This is a miracle!
These pills are a miracle. My guinea pig had two rounds of different antibiotics over more than six weeks and was still squeaking and arching her back when she tried to pee, and was peeing blood. She couldn’t control her bladder and had to be separated from her cage mates so I could keep her clean and dry during her illness. She would barely eat hay and stopped drinking water and I had to spray her greens (romaine, cucumber, fennel) with distilled water to help keep her hydrated, and then sprinkle on some Critical Care Herbivore powder for nutritional support. We were probably days from euthanasia when I stumbled upon these tablets in a desperate internet search. I honestly didn’t think they would work, but I had to try everything before giving up. They arrived quickly with Amazon shipping but she was so ill I was afraid she wouldn’t survive to try them. Twice a day I crushed 1/2 tablet, mixed it with distilled water to applesauce consistency and syringe fed it to her while she sat in my lap. It must taste good because she was very willing to take it. Within four days, she was noticeably better, seemingly no longer having pain, was getting her appetite back and eating hay again. After a week there was no blood in her urine and soon she was back with her cage mates, acting completely normal. She has gained back all the weight she lost (over a pound!) and is happy, playful and full of energy again. These tablets literally saved her life and I will always have them on hand from now on. I highly recommend them and if nothing else seems to be helping, please try these before you give up. Everything I’ve been told and have read says there’s no way to dissolve bladder sludge or stones, but it sure worked for my guinea pig. I hope it helps yours too!

Love this! Visible improvement (recommend using a pill crusher)
Our 4-year old guinea pig started arching her back and squeaking when she peed. After a few days on this, she went from being somewhat inactive to being a kook! She wasn’t slowing down from age but from urinary problems! It’s been two weeks now, and we’re going to follow-up with the vet, but with such dramatic improvement, we might give this more time to work before getting an X-ray.Per the package and her weight, we’re giving 1 pill a day, and we split it into two doses. She doesn’t want to chew the pill, so we crush it and sprinkle it on a strip of wet red bell pepper. With the daily pill breaking and twice daily grinding, I recommend getting a pill breaker and a pill crusher. They’re cheap and super handy.

Good stuff!
I have one guinea pig with a bladder full of stones. He will need to have surgery for them (boo!) but in the meantime I needed a supplement to give to him and his brother to support their urinary health. They both love this supplement and gobble it up immediately every morning. I like that it also has vitamin c in it because they don’t care for other forms of Vitamin c supplements I’ve tried. I don’t expect this supplement to work miracles like dissolve all of my guinea pigs bladder stones but I hope that it will keep them both healthy for a long time!

Great for uti and bladder stones
I have a older guinea pig, he’s very picky, he don’t like the pill, I had to crush innfine pieces and add water to make it a paste, and force feed, dont feed any small pets fresh veggies or fruits, its bad for them….This product works great…

Worked quickly
Sherwood has always been a stellar brand for rabbit products, I am thrilled that these worked so well for my male angora bun that was having urine dribbling. After cutting down pellets and feeding mostly hay with these tablets, he had a complete turnaround. I highly recommend giving it a try.

Love it
Here’s the corrected version of your text:“My guinea pig had a urinary infection all the time. This was my last chance to do something for her, and she loved it. Now, she doesn’t have any problems, but if it starts again, I just double the dose for two days.”

Did not work for my guinea big
My guinea pig was on this product for 6 months. It did not dissolve his stones/sludge and it certainly did not reduce his infections. This product did not live up to its lofty claims in my case.

URINARY SUPPORT TABLETS
This product is tasty for pet’s consumption but….. it is too hard to chew. However, crushing tablet into a powder and placing it in a favorite treat and pet seems to be “enjoying” the new “treat”.
