I cured my kitten during a serious bout with distemper by fasting her and giving her drops of lemon balm tincture every couple of hours. I also got three bags of saline from the vet to avoid dehydration.
Juliette de Bairacli Levy recommends fasting for distemper in both puppies and kittens. The vet talked me into forcing her to take some vitamin paste, and she got much worse. Then I fasted her with the herbal drops and she was mostly recovered in a couple of days.
