Copied from page 10 of the post I mentioned. My post goes into more detail about it.
What I used to get Tucker out of this war with GI Stasis.
Simethicone: It's an infants' gas relief drops and you canpurchase it at a pharmacy. The price I paid was $5.27. This helps thegas within the hairball to break down.
Pedialyte: In the baby section of a pharmacy. This helps prevent hydration. I paid $5.53
Papaya Tablets: Has to be the tablets. Papain is the ingredientyou most want from the tablets. You can get these tablets at manygrocery stores, a pharmacy, or a health food store. I paid about $5
Tetracycline: An antibiotic for the bacteria that can build as aresult of the blockage. It can be purchased at a Tractor Supply Companystore for $5 and change. You can get it at feed stores. It's claim tofame is an antibiotic for chickens, cattle, sheep and bees.
NutriCal: A dietary supplement that will keep your rabbit'snutrient supply going while he/she's not eating. It can be purchased atthe same place as the Tetracycline usually. A feed store, TractorSupply, or something of that line for about $10.
Fresh Pineapple Juice: Canned pineapple juice won't do the jobof breaking down the hairball with the acids that fresh pineapple has.Grocery store, of course.
Canned Pumpkin: It has to be canned.
Syringes: At least one 3 cc syringe purchased at pharmacybecause chances are, you'll have to force feed many of the above.
You can use a meat tenderizer that has less sugar, but more salt.You'll find that if you ask 5 different professionals, they're advicewill overlap and what one says isn't what another agrees with.
In the end, it's your call. As Pamnock said to me, you just have togather all the information you can, think of the research and make adecision as to what treatment you'll use.
