Without knowing what you have used, Sammys full history and current condition this is very difficult to discuss. The cornerstones of treatment generally revolve around: specialist hydrolysed diet (royal canin analergenic / hills z/d ultra), immunosuppressive medications, injectable and oral vitamin b12/folic acid supplements and natural antiinflammatory supplements. Please repost or request a consultation if yo have further questions about his condition
