Treatment duration:
Although CALM should be administered for a period of 2 or 3 months, the absolute safety of the product allows it to be administered throughout the life of the dog, if necessary. In principle, CALM should start to be administered ten days before any foreseeable stressful situation (a trip, a move, the arrival of a child, a home renovation, etc.).
Tryptic hydrolyzate of a milk protein (alpha s1 casein), which contains an active peptide (patented), with stress-regulating properties: alpha-casozepine. L-tryptophan is a precursor to serotonin, a neurotransmitter that plays an essential role in regulating anxiety, sleep, and appetite.
Synergistic action of a patented cocktail of 4 vitamins (pantothenic acid, inositol, niacin and choline) and 1 amino acid (histidine), which reinforces the effectiveness of the skin barrier and limits the risk of skin irritation, promoting the synthesis of ceramides and limiting the transepidermal water loss.
A combination of highly digestible proteins (LIP proteins***), chicory pulp and fish oil, which guarantees maximum digestive tolerance.
The mechanical effect of friction that dry food exerts on the teeth can be increased by including active ingredients derived from sodium phosphate. These calcium binders limit the concentration of calcium in saliva and indirectly delay the calcification of dental plaque.
Additional Information:
CALM contains a tryptic casein hydrolyzate, which has been shown to be effective in dogs with anxiety disorders, at a dose of 15 mg/kg body weight/day. After 8 weeks, the EDED* score in dogs in the alpha-casozepine treatment group was comparable to the score in dogs treated with Selegiline, the selected reference drug (Béata C., 2006). On the other hand, CALM takes into account the risk of developing urinary stones in smaller dogs.
