How to Administer

Animals' Apawthecary Herbal Tinctures taste sweet and contain little or no alcohol, most can be squirted directly into the mouth of your pet or can be added to his drinking water or food. However, please keep in mind that no two animals are alike -- the amount needed for effectiveness will vary from animal to animal. With that in mind, the following guidelines represent a typical feeding regimen for most of tincture formulas.


Feeding Guidelines
Cats: 12-20 (0.5ml) drops, twice daily
Dogs: 12-20 (0.5ml) drops for each 20 lbs. of animal body weight, twice daily

Duration of Use: 5 days on, 2 days off (to monitor results). If your animal's condition worsens or shows no improvements, please consult your veterinarian.

How Long Will A Bottle Last?

A one fluid ounce bottle will serve most cats and small dogs one month. Dogs over 30 lbs. will likely require two ounces or more per month. Because these products contain no synthetic preservatives and have a shelf life of less than two years, we encourage you to buy only what you need for a few months. To determine a more exact feeding amount and to establish duration and frequency of feeding, we encourage you to consult a holistic veterinarian.
