ArthroVet Complex small breeds/cats VetExpert ArthroVet Complex small breeds & cats. The product is used for small dogs and cats, both for the prevention and treatment of disorders of the normal function of articular cartilage and joints. It is recommended for young growing animals as well as for elderly animals suffering from osteoarthritis. Form of release: pack of 60 capsules.
Composition: soybean oil, glucosamine, soy lecithin, chondroitin sulfate, hyaluronic acid, Harpagophytum procumbens 33.3 mg, avocado 33.3 mg, vitamin C 25 mg, manganese sulfate 6.12 mg, copper sulfate 2.51 mg, zinc oxide 1.25 mg.
Indications for use: The growth period of puppies and kittens - formation of cartilage tissue, increase in body weight, increased load per unit of articular surface. Differences in the rate of development of joints and bones, the need for optimal or accelerated growth of cartilage tissue. Osteoarthritis at any age (an inflammatory disease accompanied by degenerative changes in the joints). Arthritis, arthrosis.
Injuries.
High load on the limbs, including in case of developmental defects. Glucosamine stimulates the synthesis of glycosaminoglycans, the structural components of the intercellular matrix of cartilage tissue, which ensure the elasticity of cartilage and normalization of the gliding function of articular surfaces, prevents the destruction of cartilage tissue, and ensures the restoration of articular cartilage. Chondroitin and hyaluronic acid normalize metabolism in cartilage tissue, promote hydration and restoration of the normal viscosity of synovial (joint) fluid, increasing the elasticity of articular surfaces and the resistance of joints to damage during physical activity. The complex of extracts of devil's claw, avocado and soybeans has a pronounced anti-inflammatory effect on the joints and surrounding soft tissues, inhibits the formation of inflammatory agents, and has analgesic and decongestant effects. Vitamin C and manganese are involved in the synthesis of proteins of the intercellular matrix of cartilage tissue: they act as coenzymes in the process of collagen synthesis in articular cartilage and thus support the process of forming the organic components of cartilage. Vitamin C neutralizes the destructive effect of free radicals on joints. L-carnitine helps optimize body weight, participates in the breakdown of fatty acids in cells, as a result of which fatty acids are converted with the release of energy and do not accumulate in adipose tissue, which leads to a reduction in the mechanical load on the joints.
Dosage: The recommended daily dose for cats is 1 capsule per day, for small dog breeds - 1 capsule for every 5 kg of body weight. Application: Can be taken whole or crushed, during or between meals. If the daily dosage involves taking several capsules, the daily dose can be divided into 2 or 3 doses. For optimal results, it is recommended to use the product for 1 to 3 months, and in cases of chronic diseases - up to 6 months without interruption. Before use or extending the duration of use of the product, it is recommended to consult a veterinarian, who may adjust the dosage and method of administration according to the individual characteristics of the animal.
