I can't find any interaction between metronidazole and milk thistle, so you can give them to Alaska. I would give her Denamarin instead, which has Silymarin (found in milk thistle) + SAMe (not found in milk thistle. It has been tested in pets that Denamarin is far superior in effectiveness because of this added component; therefore, I always reach for Denamarin over Milk Thistle. Denamarin is often used for pets that have liver malfunction, to help promote liver regeneration. I hope this helps.
