I did. I gave Roxy some before/after a vaccine last year. She had, what I believed to be a reaction to the rabies vaccine. When she was due for something else, I gave milk thistle before and after. I didn't see any reactions to the vaccine, but I can't say for certain it's due to the milk thistle or if she just didn't react anyway. She's never reacted to a vaccine before, just the one rabies vaccine she received, and even that is debatable if it was the vaccine or some other underlying issue. i didn't see any negative effects of e milk thistle, but that's about all I can say really.

Interesting, I've never heard of milk thistle used for vax reactions.

It's supposedly good for detox. My vet had said there isn't a ton of research supporting it, but there were no issues with me trying it (no reactions with current meds, etc.) so I thought I would try to see if it did anything, not realizing until after that there wasn't any way for me to know if it "really" worked or not.

Think I'll give this a try next time I have to do rabies.
