FlexJoint for small animals contains a combination of vegan glucosamine and MSM* (a naturally occurring supplement) that may assist with relief from debilitating arthritic symptoms in small herbivores (such as rabbits and guinea pigs). Flavoured with Vetafarm’s Crittacare Herbivore, pumpkin and carrot, with no artificial binders, colours or flavours.
Arthritis is a commonly seen issue in small animals as they begin to age. Other factors that may contribute include, obesity, restricted exercise, previous injuries and poor nutrition.
Some symptoms may include:
- Difficulty/slowness moving
- Limping or favouring one leg
- Swollen joints
- Reluctance to move or play
*MSM is a naturally occurring supplement known for its anti-inflammatory and antioxidant benefits.
Starting Dose: Provide 1 chew per 1kg of body weight once daily with food for the first 4 weeks.
Maintenance Dose: Provide 1 chew per 1kg bodyweight with food every second day.
FlexJoint is designed to be a long-term solution and as such, signs of improvement within your animal should be noticeable after 3-4 weeks of continuous use. This time allows for the active ingredients to be properly absorbed by your animal and for their natural repair process to begin.
