Product Description
Zylkene Capsules for Dogs & Cats
Zylkene is a natural, non-prescription calming supplement designed to help dogs and cats cope with stressful or unusual situations. Made from a milk-derived protein called alpha-casozepine, Zylkene helps promote relaxation without causing drowsiness, making it ideal for pets experiencing changes in their environment or routine.
Widely recommended by veterinarians and behaviour professionals, Zylkene can help support pets during events such as travel, moving house, boarding, fireworks, storms, the introduction of a new pet or baby, and other situations that may cause stress or anxiety.
The capsules contain a palatable, water-soluble powder that can be given whole or mixed with food, treats, or liquids for easy administration.
Suitable for dogs and cats, including nursing queens and bitches, puppies, and kittens.
Available in 75mg, 225mg, and 450mg strengths, with 30 capsules per pack or a box of 100 x 75mg capsules.
