SYNOQUIN® for Dogs

Joint health is important for the happiness and mobility of all your pets. We would always recommend speaking to your vet practice, for further advice, if you notice:

•   Stiffness

•   Reluctance to exercise as normal

•   Difficulty getting up steps or jumping up

•   Not grooming well, so developing a matted, unkempt coat

•   Not wanting to be picked up or stroked anymore

•   Difficulty accessing litter trays

•   Limping or uneven movement

•   Difficulty climbing stairs

•   Hesitating before jumping into the car or onto furniture

•   Scuffed claws

•   Licking a limb or joint excessively

•   Changes in behaviour

•   Becoming reluctant to be touched or handled

•   Hiding away more

•   Changes in appetite

SYNOQUIN® is a joint supplement that is used to support cartilage health, maintain lubricating joint fluid and the natural systems that promote mobility. Protecting your pet's joints can improve longevity of joint function, quality of life and improve mobility long-term.

SYNOQUIN® may be used for dogs already showing signs of reduced mobility, as well as active or older dogs requiring ongoing nutritional joint support. Large breed dogs, active dogs, breeds prone to joint issues and dogs that have had joint surgery, can all be given SYNOQUIN® as part of a joint management plan, advised by your veterinary surgeon.

SYNOQUIN® can be used with a multimodal approach to get the best outcome for your pet, involving pain relief, environmental changes, good diet, weight management and exercise.

SYNOQUIN® formulation contains a unique blend of premium ingredients, rather than relying on a single ingredient. The five key ingredients in SYNOQUIN® work together to help maintain joint health, protect joint function and aid with supporting movement for your dog.

•   Glucosamine HCl 99% - Important nutrient for production of healthy cartilage and lubricating synovial joint fluid

•   Chondroitin Sulphate 95% - Essential to give cartilage its shock absorbing properties, helping with joint load transfer 

•   Dexahan - Highly purified form of krill, a rich source of Omega 3 fatty acids and Astaxanthin, a potent antioxidant

•   Ascorbic Acid - Antioxidant vitamin that neutralises free radicals and helps tackle oxidative stress in the joint 

•   Zinc Sulphate - Important in the metabolism of joint cartilage

Many supplements may not contain the required levels of ingredients, or may only contain raw material, rather than purified ingredients, so it is important speak to your vet.

There are lots of joint 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, SYNOQUIN® is used by more vets in more countries than any other joint supplement.

SYNOQUIN® tablets for dogs contain a pork liver flavouring, making them very tasty for your dog.

SYNOQUIN® capsules for dogs have no added flavouring, but do taste fishy, due to the krill in the product.

There are many different ways to help aid joint mobility in dogs and using a combination of them is the best way to help your pet. Every dog is different, so it is important to find the right management that suits each individual. Your vet practice is the best place to go for advice about this and they may want to use a combination of:

•   Joint supplements, specifically ones that are "chondroprotectives"
•   Medication
•   Exercise
•   Diets
•   Physiotherapy and hydrotherapy
•   Adjunctive methods such as acupuncture
•   Surgery
