Glandex – Product Spotlight
What is Glandex?
Glandex is a pet-safe supplement formulated in the USA specifically for dogs and cats with recurring anal gland problems. With this tasty treat, Glandex, is the proven solution with a high rate of effectiveness against the need for frequent anal gland expressions.
How Does It Work?
Glandex uses a unique fiber blend to help create firm and bulky stools to help naturally empty the anal glands when your pet defecates. Included in the patented formula are a blend of natural anti-inflammatories, probiotics, and digestive enzymes to encourage a healthy gut.
When starting your pet on Glandex, you should give your pet half of the recommended dose to allow your pet to become used to the added fiber content to their diet.
Is it safe?
There are no known side effects to Glandex, however, you may notice larger stools. You should begin to see improvements in your pet within 3-5 weeks. For those pets with a more severe anal gland problem, results can take longer.
Glandex is available in many forms, including flavored powder and soft chews. The powder can be mixed directly with your pet’s food and the soft chews can be given as a daily treat. Please note the powder formula is approved for dogs & cats whereas the soft chews are strictly for dogs.
