For Gas: “I have used activated charcoal from a number of different companies. I use it personally to treat excessive gas when it becomes frequent and stinky, but I also give it to my mixed breed dog when Famotidine doesn’t seem to help enough. She seems to have IBS, poor thing. I have her on a homemade diet. It is a Godsend.”
