I have cat, 4 years old. He has FIV. We gave him virbagen omega 10, 0-5 14-19 60-65 day and finished with treatment. He was better for few days and then he lost his apetite. I live in small town, my vet isnt sure can we give him more interferon, how often, how many days...we give him vitamins injections once a week and antibiotics. im waing for immunosupport vitamins for him. any help and advice will mean much to my cat ant me. thank you.

hi and welcome, I am so sorry about your little guy. Your Vet needs to do his research on treatment, even if he's not familiar with treating this he can learn so he's better able to help.
I will send you one site that will give you tons on knowledge. and try to find more.

I will also tell you to use LACTOFERRIN. an amino acid supplement available from a good health food store.it has excellent ANTI VIRAL effects. open the capsule and sprinkle a small amount on his food.
this will help strengthen his immune system.
It is important for cats that you use the brand Jarrow or Life Extension...you can also order from iherb.com

hope this helps, don't give up on kitty, many with FIV still live long lives...
