Abstract: The present study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of herbal-probiotics combination regimens in amelioration of acute gastritis in young dogs. The main clinical signs on presentation were vomiting, abdominal pain, anorexia and dehydration. Group 1 served as the healthy control. Affected dogs were treated with Zingiber officinale (Hindi ‘Adrak’) aqueous extract @ 100 mg/kg + Lactobacillus acidophilus + Sacharomyces boulardii @ 2 g PO, OD for 5 days (group 2), or Fennel (Hindi ‘Saunf’) seeds aqueous extract @ one teaspoonful + Lactobacillus acidophilus+ Sacharomyces boulardii @ 4 g PO, OD for 5 days (group 3), or Elettaria cardamomum (Hindi ‘Elaichi’) aqueous extract @ one teaspoon+ Lactobacillus acidophilus + Sacharomyces boulardii @ 6 g PO, BID for 5 days (group 4). Statistically significant changes were observed in the circulatory potassium titres. The combination regimen in group 2 was adjudged most effective on restoration of normal serum electrolytes balance.
