I read the article and especially do not understand the part about what kind of niacin to give my dog? It’s so confusing about the no flush, flush free???
So I want the Flushing kind???

No, you actually want Liquid B complex since your duck is having difficulty it works faster and quicker than just plain Niacin. TSC carries the Liquid B complex she'll need 1 ml if she is eating you can try over a tasty treat like chopped tomatoes or watermelon. Or mealworms . If she isn't you'll need to give it to her orally so you'll need a 1ml syringe Most pharmacies carry them for diabetics[no needle]. You don't want to give flush free or time-released ever they do not work. This is after you have gotten her back up and running. The liquid B complex will say injectable but we use it orally. Keep in the frig after opening. We have directions on how to give meds by mouth if you need them, you have to be extremely careful giving poultry meds by mouth.
