So far I haven't noticed much improvement yet but it's only been 5 days. I started him on Friday morning and then I noticed on Friday evening that he had spit out one of the pills so I gave it to him as soon as I noticed this. I stopped using the vaporizer one night and Sky seemed to be breathing much worse the next day so I guess this is also helping him a little bit.

The name of the chinese herbal pills are Er Chen Teapills by Plum Flower. They are also called Er Chen Wan and they come in a bottle of 200 pills. I don't know how long a cat can take these pills because my holistic vet made it sound like it would be short term and then she's most likely put him on something else. The great thing is that once he's healthy again, he'll only need to be on something for 1 week prior to the allergy season so she said it would 1 week 2 times a year. I'll continue to keep you updated. I sure hope that these will be able to help some other cats. Good luck.
