Pup's Allergies Acting Up? Turmeric or JAK-inhibitors - ...
There are many cases of allergies in dogs that can cause a hypersensitivity reaction to pollen, mites, or a particular food ingredient. Typical symptoms of food allergy are itching and changes in the skin, which may be accompanied by symptoms in the gastrointestinal system. As skin problems tend to be treated symptomatically, in most cases corticosteroids are the first and the most rapid therapeutic choice, which is unfortunately not always advantageous for the animal. Janus kinase inhibitors (JAK-inhibitors) are another therapeutic option used in conventional Western medicine that, in most cases, stops pruritus but does not solve the problem. In addition to the characteristic clinical findings in dogs with hypersensitivity reactions, there are often corresponding findings of hematological and biochemical parameters. Many authors using blood tests in allergic patients describe the occurrence of eosinophilia.
The observations made in this study cannot be presented as unequivocal and comprehensive instruction in solving the problem of allergy in dogs. The aim of this study was to show and pay attention to the existence of alternative diagnostic and therapeutic treatment methods that have been used in the past and which are becoming extremely popular nowadays. According to much worldwide research on traditional therapeutic methods, such as acupuncture, phytotherapy and others, which have been used for centuries, such practices are also greatly beneficial in the treatment of allergies. If these non-invasive methods are used properly, they can significantly improve or even stabilize many health problems and diseases with minimal side effects. Alternative options are safe, without the risk of side effects, and they do not harm the body. They can be used separately or in combination with other therapies; and they can be used as an independent or complementary therapy for both animals and humans.
