Information on Gut Health

A healthy digestive system is important for nutrient absorption, hydration, normal stools and your pet’s general wellbeing, however digestive upsets are common. The digestive tract is also home to a large and diverse community of microorganisms, collectively known as the gut microbiota. Beneficial intestinal bacteria contribute to normal digestion and help maintain balance within the gastrointestinal system. Digestive upset can occur when this normal balance is disturbed or when the stomach or intestines become irritated. Common causes include: Frequent reasons pets experience them include: • Eating rubbish, leftovers or spoiled food • Scavenging while outdoors • A rapid change of diet • Food intolerance • Stress or a change in routine • Travel or kennelling • Parasites • Bacterial or viral infection • Medication, including some antibiotics Some digestive upsets are mild and short-lived, but we would always recommend speaking to your vet for further advice if you notice: • Vomiting • Soft faeces • Blood and/or mucous in the faeces • Changes to faeces colour • Changes to appetite • Lethargy • Bloating • Flatulence

How can PROMAX® support my pet ?

PROMAX® contains ingredients to support a normal healthy digestive tract with several forms of nutritional digestive support in one convenient paste. • Montmorillonite clay has a large adsorptive surface and can help bind excess fluid and unwanted substances within the digestive tract. Its coating properties also provide physical support for the intestinal surface. • Enterococcus faecium DSM 10663/NCIMB 10415 is a probiotic, which are live microorganisms that help support a balanced population of intestinal bacteria. • The formulation also contains prebiotic ingredients, including pectin, inulin and mannan oligosaccharides. Prebiotics provide a nutritional source for beneficial bacteria already present within the digestive system. • Glutamine and L-threonine provide additional nutritional support for the intestinal lining. Glutamine is an important energy source for cells within the small intestine, while threonine is involved in the production of intestinal mucus. These complementary actions allow PROMAX® to support normal digestive function during short-term gastrointestinal disturbance.

Why does my vet recommend PROMAX® ?

PROMAX® contains a complete range of nutritional ingredients, to help support gastrointestinal health quickly. Because the Bentonite (Montmorillonite) clay is highly effective and supieror to other forms of clay, PROMAX® works rapidly. Due to the wide range of action from the other ingredients in the formulation, PROMAX® only needs to be given once-a-day and has pre-measured feeding guidelines, making it as simple as possible to use. Your vet may recommend it alongside other options, to support your pet's digestive health. There are lots of different supplements available, however it is important to trust your veterinary surgeon’s advice on which one is right for your pet and why. At VetPlus, animals deserve the best. This is why we always produce the best products for the pet, from the best possible ingredients in our state-of-the-art UK facility. As a result, PROMAX® is used by vets in many countries globally.

How does PROMAX®  taste?

PROMAX® has a highly palatable pork liver flavouring, making it tasty for dogs and cats. The paste can be administered directly from the syringe. Give it slowly and allow your pet time to swallow.

What else can help?

Your vet will be able to recommend the appropriate management for your pet depending on the signs they are showing. Every animal is different so it is important to find the right management for the individual. This may involve smaller, more frequent meals, diet changes, fluid support, certain medication and other supportive care.

How to give PROMAX® 

Give PROMAX® once-a-day for three days, using the weight-appropriate syringe. PROMAX® does not need to be given multiple times a day. Turn the calibrated ring on the syringe to measure the correct daily amount. Remove the cap and administer the paste slowly into the side of your pet’s mouth. Many pets will lick the paste directly from a plate. • Cat and Small Breed dogs under 10kg - 9 ml syringe - 3 ml once-a-day for 3 days • Medium Breed dogs 10-25kg - 18 ml syringe - 6 ml once-a-day for 3 days • Large Breed dogs over 25kg - 30 ml syringe - 10 ml once-a-day for 3 days
