How long does a hypoallergenic food trial take?
The elimination phase usually lasts 6 to 8 weeks, fed strictly with nothing else. Your vet may then reintroduce the old food to see whether symptoms return. Follow your vet’s plan, as the details vary by dog.
Can I buy a veterinary diet without seeing a vet?
Many shops sell veterinary diets without a prescription because they are foods, not medicines. However, they are formulated for specific medical conditions, and the labels recommend a vet’s opinion before use. Feeding the wrong one can cause problems, so use them under veterinary guidance.
