Can my rabbit take Oxbow digestive & skin supplements for hairballs?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

Pet's info: Small Animal | Rabbit | Female | unspayed | 1 year and 2 months old | 4.5 lbs

Hello! I was wondering if I could feed two different Oxbow tabs a day. I am feeding my bunny the Oxbow digestive Support mixed in with her daily food. I got her the digestive support tabs because she cleans herself a lot more than any rabbit I have ever owned, I was hoping They would help with fur balls. Do they? Also can I feed her two different oxbow tabs a day meaning that she would get 1 1/2 tabs of the digestive tabs and also 1 1/2 of the skin and coat tabs. Thank you!

Yes, you can give both together. The Digestive Support does not do anything for hairballs though. Here is an article on how to prevent hairballs in rabbits. Hope this helps. ( https://www.thesprucepets.com/how-to-prevent-rabbits-from-getting-hairballs-1237206 ) Best wishes.
