When I began using (Std-c) I noticed there was a manufactures note (If you
were using feed products containing bentonite, there was a question as to
the effect of the daily wormer.) Because I use a pelleted grain (MOST
pelleted feed products contain bentonite.) I asked my vet to check if my
product would inter fear with the wormers effect. The answer was no.

If I were using a pelleted feed (grain type) and a pelleted alfalfa and/or
supliments, I would check to see if there is bentonite used in the process
and how much, then run this quantity past the manufacture of Std-c, direct
or have your vet find out. In our area even soy meal has 10% bentonite
ground into it to make it flow.

I do not know the amount of bentonite (clay) that will interfear with this
product.

For my own information, does any one know off hand.......?

Thanks Sigrid
