Orthomolecular nutrition for animals suffering from gum and oral mucosa conditions.
Dental diseases, especially periodontitis, affect a high percentage of dogs of various breeds and ages.
Bacteria and tartar accumulate in the oral cavity, generating free radicals and toxins. These will inflame soft tissues and damage teeth.
The GingiVet formula was created to heal gum wounds. In addition, the high antioxidant content blocks complications caused by free radicals.
Target species: dogs, cats
LYSINE
Participates in the synthesis of collagen, antibodies, hormones, enzymes, etc. It is currently administered for nutritional support in feline herpesvirus infections.
GLYCINE
It is the most important substance for collagen synthesis. It has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties at the level of the epithelial cells of the gums. Oral administration of glycine has been shown to reduce periodontal bone mass loss.
COENZYME Q10
Essential antioxidant substance for mitochondrial metabolism. The gingival tissue of patients with periodontal diseases shows clear deficiencies of coenzyme Q10. Supplementation significantly improved their condition.
VITIS VINIFERA EXTRACT (grape seeds)
Acts as a powerful antioxidant due to its levels of proanthocyanidins, which block free radicals involved in the development of periodontitis. Protects connective tissue from bacterial collagenase.
ALPHA-LIPOIC ACID
Universal antioxidant that easily penetrates and crosses the cell membrane. It is fat and water-soluble. It also promotes the recycling of endogenous and exogenous antioxidants.
ZINC
Zinc deficiency increases gum permeability, facilitating bacterial penetration. Zinc intake accelerates the healing of bleeding gum wounds.
FOLIC ACID
Facilitates wound healing and reduces inflammation, strengthening the oral barrier against infections.
VITAMIN B-12
Its levels are inversely proportional to periodontal diseases. It participates in wound healing, promotes the repair of bleeding gums.
L-SELENOMETHIONINE
Exerts a remarkable antioxidant effect: it is a scavenger of reactive oxygen species and is part of antioxidant enzymes, such as GPx (glutathione peroxidase). In addition, it has demonstrated immunomodulatory properties.
Storage conditions:

Tris-NAC® is an innovative, synergistic combination of NAC and Tris-EDTA. It is used to prevent the formation of bacterial biofilm. Where this biofilm is already present, TRIS-NAC acts to destroy it!
Target species: dogs, cats
Description:
What is a biofilm?
An aggregate of cells embedded in an extracellular matrix of polymeric substances, which protects it from antibiotics, chemical products, and the body's immune processes. It can form on medical instruments as well as on animal tissue.
This aspect causes resistance to antibiotic therapy; in fact, bacteria in the biofilm can be 100-1000 times more resistant compared to "free" bacteria.
There are bacteria that can produce biofilms, including: Staphylococcus pseudintermedius, Pseudomonas
aeruginosa (particularly in cases of otitis in dogs, Figs. 1 and 2), Proteus Mirabilis, Escherichia coli. In the case of yeasts, Malassezia spp. is the one that can produce biofilm, especially in seborrheic dermatitis in dogs.
Treatment: topical therapy is the most innovative and involves both the use of effective substances and their combination to achieve a synergistic effect.
Tris-EDTA (Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid)
Bactericidal effect on bacteria that do not grow inside the biofilm (Ciofu et al, 2017); associated with Tromethamine (Tris), it destroys the bacterial cell walls and increases membrane penetration; it is very well tolerated, non-ototoxic and acts synergistically with chlorhexidine (Guardabassi et al, 2010); recently an in-vitro study demonstrated that Tris-EDTA in combination with antibiotics is a very effective support in cases of chronic otitis with Pseudomonas with hypothetical presence of biofilms (Pye et al, 2014).
NAC (N-acetylcysteine)
N-acetyl is a derivative of the amino acid cysteine, has mucolytic action, preventing the production of exopolysaccharides and thus weakening the EPS matrix. It has recently been used in eight clinical studies as supportive treatment to destroy mature biofilm and prevent its formation, proving a safe profile with excellent efficacy. The association of Tris-EDTA and NAC on the skin and in the ear before applying topical treatments such as chlorhexidine, antibiotics and synthetic antimicrobial peptides, allows increasing the permeability of mature biofilm and consequently its disintegration, thus solving the problem of bacterial resistance to classic treatments.
Storage conditions:
Store in a place protected from moisture and direct sunlight, at temperatures up to 25°C.
Valid after unsealing: 50 days
Additional information:
For topical use. Do not administer orally!

Dia-Tab is a food supplement in tablet form for dogs with acute diarrhea. The product is an adjuvant in cases of acute intestinal absorption disorders. Pectins, derived from fruits, form a protective film on the intestinal mucosa.
Bentonite is a mineral with a water absorption capacity of up to 70%, and montmorillonite protects the digestive tract by capturing toxins. Fructo-oligosaccharides belong to the category of prebiotics and are responsible for restoring beneficial intestinal flora, while betaine acts together with pepsin and normalizes gastric acidity.
The formula also contains electrolytes to replace those lost during diarrheal episodes, ensuring prompt energy intake and complete restoration of the body's hydro-electrolyte balance.
Growing Chihuahua puppies need special food during their delicate growth period. The food must meet the nutritional needs of a developing puppy. It must ensure healthy joint development, a strong immune system, and optimal nutritional tolerance. The Chihuahua is the smallest dog in the world. Its small size makes it a popular companion, and it primarily lives indoors. Due to its compact body shape, the Chihuahua is agile, lively, and full of life. Attention must be paid to the food, especially as it needs to be suitable for the small jaw and teeth of this dog.
Royal Canin Breed Chihuahua Puppy has been developed for the characteristics and needs of Chihuahua puppies up to 8 months old.

The Yorkshire Terrier undergoes a short and intense growth period, and its delicate structure develops rapidly. At approximately 2 months, its development already reaches its peak. Towards the end of the growth period, the Yorkshire Terrier gains weight more slowly, and its bones strengthen. However, its nutritional needs will still be twice that of an adult dog.
The immune system of a growing Yorkshire Terrier is very sensitive, as its ability to produce antibodies is not yet sufficiently developed. Frequent changes in diet can negatively affect the puppy's intestinal flora, leading to sensitive digestion.
Royal Canin Breed Yorkshire Terrier Puppy dry food has been specially formulated considering the particular characteristics of dogs of this breed up to 10 months of age.
Ingredients: poultry protein (dried), rice, maize flour, animal fat, vegetable protein isolate*, dried beet pulp, animal protein (hydrolysed), minerals, soya oil, fish oil, yeasts, fructooligosaccharides (0.34%), yeast hydrolysate (source of mannan-oligosaccharides), borage oil, yeast extract (source of beta-glucans), marigold flower meal (source of lutein).

Yorkshire Terriers are very affectionate and have a strong character, and their long, silky blue-grey coat is incredibly similar to human hair. For continuous coat growth, Yorkshire Terriers need a daily diet with 35% protein. One of the unique characteristics of this breed is the absence of an undercoat. Because of this, even a small wound or a very slight blow can cause skin problems.
Yorkshire Terriers have small jaws and teeth that need protection. Due to frequent shedding, Yorkshire Terriers can become very agitated, and their food must be very palatable.
Your Yorkshire Terrier puppy has a particularly high life expectancy; some veterinarians and breeders have reported Yorkshire Terriers living up to 21 years. With advanced age, the risk of heart, kidney, and joint problems increases.
Royal Canin Yorkshire Terrier food has been specially designed for the unique characteristics of this breed.

Growing French Bulldogs need special nutrition during this short and intense period of development. Puppies' digestive systems are sensitive and can be easily upset. Therefore, this food contains easily digestible prebiotics and high-quality proteins that ensure the protection of the digestive system and help maintain a balanced intestinal flora.
French Bulldogs are very affectionate, intelligent, and playful dogs. They may seem stubborn and surly at first glance, but once you get to know them, you will discover their gentleness and charm. At the same time, these agile, strong dogs have well-developed muscle mass. Their compact body with accentuated muscles gives them their unique appearance, but it also means that their joints are sensitive and need special protection. The special shape of their head can cause breathing problems, preventing proper oxygenation of some parts of the body. This can cause, for example, flatulence.
French Bulldogs have developed a unique way of eating due to the special shape of their head and short jaw. This must be taken into account when feeding your puppy.
Royal Canin Breed French Bulldog Puppy is a dry food specially formulated for French Bulldogs up to 12 months of age.

the appropriate combination of pipettes should be used
To reduce re-infestations with new fleas, it is recommended that all dogs in a family (household) be treated. Other pets in
the same family or household should be treated with appropriate products. For fleas originating from the animal's environment,
the additional use of an appropriate product for the treatment against adult fleas and their developmental stages is recommended. The product is effective even if the animal is wet. However, prolonged exposure to water should be avoided. If prolonged exposure
to water occurs, the effectiveness of the product decreases. Even in this case, it should not be treated more frequently than once a week. If it is
necessary to shampoo the animal, it is advisable to apply Advantix spot-on solution for dogs after two weeks
to ensure the effectiveness of the product.
Method of administration.
Remove one pipette from the package. Hold the pipette upright, twist the cap, and remove it. Turn the cap upside down and use it to
unseal the pipette (by twisting and pressing on the seal, as shown in the photo).
For dogs weighing 10 kg or less:
With the dog standing, part the hair between the shoulder blades until the skin is visible. Apply the tip of the pipette directly to the skin and
by firmly squeezing several times, empty the contents of the pipette. Apply only to uninjured skin.
For dogs weighing more than 10 kg:
With the dog standing, the entire contents of the Advantix spot-on solution for dogs pipette will be applied evenly in four places
starting from between the shoulder blades and extending to the base of the tail. At each spot, part the hair until the skin is visible. Apply the tip of the pipette to the skin and
gently squeeze to release some of the solution onto the skin.
Recommendations for correct administration
For external use only.
Apply only to uninjured skin.
Do not apply a large amount of solution in a single spot, as this may run off the sides of the dog.
Withdrawal period
Not applicable.

Other information
Advantix spot-on solution for dogs is a topical ectoparasiticide containing imidacloprid and permethrin.
This combination acts as an insecticide, acaricide, and repellent.
Imidacloprid is an ectoparasiticide belonging to the chloronicotinyl group of compounds. Chemically, it can be classified
as a chloronicotinyl nitroguanidine. Imidacloprid is effective against adult fleas and their larval stages. In addition to
its efficacy against adult fleas, the larvicidal efficacy of the substance for areas in the animal's habitat has also been demonstrated.
The product provides repellent (anti-feeding) action against ticks, sandflies, and mosquitoes, thereby preventing
parasite blood feeding and reducing the risk of transmitting vector-borne diseases (Canine Vector-Borne Disease or
CVBD, such as borreliosis, rickettsiosis, ehrlichiosis, leishmaniasis).
It can be used during pregnancy and lactation.

CLINICAL PARTICULARS
Target species: Dogs
Indications for use, specifying the target species
For the treatment of flea and tick infestations in dogs when concurrent prevention of heartworm disease and/or treatment of gastrointestinal nematode infestations is indicated.
Treatment of flea infestations (Ctenocephalides felis and C. canis) in dogs for 5 weeks. Treatment of tick infestations (Dermacentor reticulatus, Ixodes ricinus, Rhipicephalus sanguineus) in dogs for 4 weeks.
Fleas and ticks must attach to the host and commence feeding to be exposed to the active substance.
Treatment of adult gastrointestinal nematode infestations of the following species: roundworms (Toxocara canis and Toxocara leonina), hookworms (Ancylostoma caninum and Ancylostoma braziliense) and whipworms (Trichuris vulpis).
Prevention of heartworm disease (Dirofilaria immitis larval stage) if administered monthly.
Contraindications: Do not use in case of hypersensitivity to the active substances or to any of the excipients.
Special warnings for each target species
Parasites must start feeding on the host to be exposed to afoxolaner; therefore, the risk of transmission of infectious diseases cannot be excluded.
Resistance of parasites to any particular class of antiparasitics may develop following frequent, repeated use of a product of that class. Therefore, the use of this product should be based on the assessment of each individual case and on local epidemiological information about the current susceptibility of the target species to limit the possibility of future resistance selection.
Maintaining the efficacy of macrocyclic lactones is essential for the control of Dirofilaria immitis. To minimize the risk of resistance selection, it is recommended to test dogs for both circulating antigens and blood microfilariae at the beginning of each preventive treatment period.
Only negative animals should be treated.
Special precautions for use
Special precautions for use in animals
In the absence of available data, treatment of puppies younger than 8 weeks of age and/or dogs weighing less than 2 kg should only be carried out based on a risk/benefit assessment by the veterinary surgeon.
Dogs living in heartworm endemic areas should be tested for adult heartworm infestation before administering NEXGARD SPECTRA. Infested dogs should be treated with an adulticide chosen by the veterinary surgeon to eliminate adult heartworms. NEXGARD SPECTRA is not indicated for the elimination of microfilariae.
The recommended dose should be strictly followed for Collie dogs or other related breeds.
Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals
This product, if ingested, can cause gastrointestinal disturbances.
Keep the tablets in the blister and the blister in the carton until use.
In case of accidental ingestion, especially by children, seek medical advice immediately and show the product label.
Wash hands after use.
Adverse reactions (frequency and seriousness)
In clinical studies, no serious adverse reactions were attributed to the combination of afoxolaner with milbemycin oxime. Less frequent reactions such as vomiting, diarrhoea, lethargy, anorexia and pruritus were observed. These reactions generally resolved spontaneously and were of short duration.
The frequency of adverse reactions is defined using the following convention:
- Very common (more than 1 in 10 animals displaying adverse reactions during the course of one treatment)
- Common (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 100 animals)
- Uncommon (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 1,000 animals)
- Rare (more than 1 but less than 10 animals in 10,000 animals)
- Very rare (less than 1 animal in 10,000 animals, including isolated reports).
Use during pregnancy, lactation or lay
Laboratory studies in rats and rabbits have not shown any teratogenic effects or any negative effect on the reproductive capacity of males and females. The safety of the veterinary medicinal product has not been established during pregnancy and lactation or for breeding dogs. Use only according to the benefit-risk assessment by the veterinary surgeon.
Interaction with other medicinal products or other forms of interaction
Milbemycin oxime is a substrate of p-glycoprotein (P-gp), and can therefore interact with other P-gp substrates (e.g., digoxin, doxorubicin) or other macrocyclic lactones. Therefore, concomitant treatment with other P-gp substrates may lead to increased toxicity.
Amounts to be administered and administration route
For oral administration.
Dosage:
The product should be administered at a dose of 2.50-5.36 mg/kg afoxolaner and 0.50-1.07 mg/kg milbemycin oxime body weight in accordance with the following table:

For dogs over 60 kg body weight, the appropriate combination of chewable tablets should be used.
Method of administration:
The tablets are chewable and palatable to most dogs. If the dog does not accept the tablets directly, they can be administered with food.
Treatment schedule:
The treatment schedule should be based on the veterinary diagnosis and the local epidemiological situation.
NEXGARD SPECTRA can be used as a seasonal preventive treatment against fleas and ticks (replacing treatment with a monovalent product acting only against fleas and ticks) in dogs concurrently infested with gastrointestinal nematodes. A single treatment is effective against gastrointestinal nematodes. After treating nematode infestations, treatment against flea and tick infestations can be continued by applying the monovalent product.
Disease: Heartworm disease:
NEXGARD SPECTRA kills Dirofilaria immitis larvae for one month after their transmission by mosquitoes, therefore the product must be administered at regular monthly intervals throughout the vector-prone periods, starting from the month after the first exposure to mosquitoes. Treatment should continue until one month after the last exposure to mosquitoes. To establish a treatment routine, it is recommended to administer the treatment on the same day of the month.
If replacing another heartworm prevention product, the first treatment with NEXGARD SPECTRA should begin on the day the previous medication was due.
Dogs living in or travelling to a heartworm endemic region may be infested with adult heartworms. No therapeutic effect against adult Dirofilaria immitis has been established. Therefore, it is recommended that all dogs aged 8 months or older living in heartworm endemic areas be tested for adult heartworm infestation before being treated with a heartworm prevention product.
Overdose (symptoms, emergency procedures, antidotes), if applicable
No adverse reactions were observed in healthy puppies over 8 weeks of age after 6 treatments with 5 times the maximum dose.
Afoxolaner is an insecticide and acaricide belonging to the isoxazoline family.
Afoxolaner acts by interacting with chloride ion channels, primarily those with a binding site for the neurotransmitter gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), thereby blocking pre- and post-synaptic chloride ion transfers across the cell membrane. This results in uncontrolled activity of the central nervous system and the death of insects and mites. The selective toxicity of afoxolaner between insects/mites and mammals is a consequence of the characteristic sensitivity of insect/mite GABA receptors versus those of mammals.
Afoxolaner is active against adult fleas as well as against some tick species such as Rhipicephalus sanguineus, Dermacentor reticulatus and D. variabilis, Ixodes ricinus and I. scapularis, Amblyomma americanum and Haemaphysalis longicornis.
The product kills fleas before they lay eggs and thus prevents household contamination. It can be used as part of a treatment strategy for the control of flea allergy dermatitis (FAD).
Milbemycin oxime:
Milbemycin oxime is an antiparasitic endectocide belonging to the macrocyclic lactone group. Milbemycin oxime is a mixture of milbemycin A4 and milbemycin A3 (in a ratio of 20:80 for A3:A4). It is isolated from the fermentation of Streptomyces milbemycinicus.
Milbemycin oxime acts by disrupting glutamate-activated neurotransmission in invertebrates. Milbemycin oxime increases the membrane permeability of nematodes and insects to chloride ions through glutamate-controlled chloride ion channels (related to GABA and glycine receptors in vertebrates).
This leads to hyperpolarisation of the neuromuscular membrane and paralysis and death of the parasites.
Pharmacokinetic particulars
Afoxolaner is very rapidly absorbed systemically. The absolute bioavailability obtained was 88%. The mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax) was 1822 ± 165 ng/ml, 2-4 hours (Tmax) after a 2.5 mg/kg afoxolaner dose.
The volume of distribution of Afoxolaner in tissues is 2.6 ± 0.6 l/kg and the clearance value is 5.0 ± 1.2 ml/h/kg. The half-life is approximately 2 weeks in dogs.
Plasma concentrations of Milbemycin oxime increase rapidly in the first 1-2 hours (Tmax) indicating rapid absorption from the tablet. The absolute bioavailability obtained was 81% for factor A3 and 65% for A4 respectively. The mean peak plasma concentration (Cmax), after oral administration was 1.6 ± 0.4 days and 42 ± 11 ng/ml for A3, 3.3 ± 1.4 days and 246 ± 71 ng/ml for A4.
The volume of distribution of Milbemycin oxime in tissues is 2.7 ± 0.4 and 2.6 ± 0.6 l/kg for A3 and A4 forms respectively. Both forms have a low clearance value of 75 ± 22 ml/h/kg for A3 and 41 ± 12 ml/h/kg for A4.

Treatment scheme
The product should be used after confirming infestation or risk of infestation with fleas and/or ticks, concurrently with the need for repellent (anti-feeding) activity against sandflies and/or mosquitoes and/or stable flies.
Depending on the recurrence of the risk of infestation with these ectoparasites, repeated treatment may be established. In these cases, the minimum treatment interval is at least 4 weeks.
ADVICE ON CORRECT ADMINISTRATION
Choose the appropriate pipette for the dog's weight. For dogs weighing more than 60 kg, the necessary combination of pipettes will be used until the appropriate quantity for the dog's weight is reached.
The product should be applied in two areas where the dog cannot reach, so that it cannot lick the application site.
These application sites are one at the base of the neck above the shoulder blades and the other on the midline of the neck between the base of the skull and the shoulder blades.
Remove the blister foil from the package and peel off a blister. Use scissors to cut the blister along the dotted line to remove the pipette or fold the marked corner and tear open.
Hold the pipette upright, away from your face or body, cut the tip of the pipette with scissors. Part the dog's fur until the skin is visible. Position the tip of the pipette on the skin.
Squeeze the pipette and apply approximately half of the content to the midline of the dog's neck, between the base of the skull and the shoulder blades. Repeat the application at the base of the neck, above the shoulder blades, emptying the pipette.
To achieve the best results, make sure you apply the product directly to the skin and not to the fur.
WITHDRAWAL PERIOD
Not applicable
SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS FOR STORAGE
Keep out of the sight and reach of children.
Store in the original packaging.
Do not store above 25 °C
Do not use after the expiry date stated on the packaging after "EXP". The expiry date refers to the last day of that month.
SPECIAL WARNING(S)
Special warnings for each target species
A single tick or a mosquito or sandfly bite may already be attached to the animal. For this reason, the transmission of pathogens by these arthropods cannot be excluded if conditions are favourable.
The product remains effective against fleas when treated animals occasionally enter water (e.g. swimming, bathing). However, dogs should not be allowed to swim and should not be shampooed for 48 hours after treatment.
Avoid frequent swimming or shampooing of treated dogs as this may affect the maintenance of product efficacy.
To reduce re-infestation due to the emergence of new fleas, it is recommended that all dogs in the household be treated. Animals living in the same space should be treated with a veterinary medicinal product suitable for their species.
To reduce the risk of environmental infestation, it is recommended to use additional appropriate environmental treatment
against fleas and their developmental stages.
Special precautions for use in animals
In the absence of specific studies, the use of this product is not recommended for dogs younger than 8 weeks or weighing less than 2 kg.
Avoid contact of the product with the animal's eyes.
It is very important to ensure that the product is applied in an area where the animal cannot lick the product and also to ensure that animals do not lick each other after
treatment.
Due to the unique physiology of cats, which are unable to metabolise certain compounds, including permethrin, this veterinary medicinal product can cause convulsions in this species, which can be fatal.
In case of accidental exposure, it is recommended to wash the cat with shampoo or soap and seek urgent veterinary advice. To prevent accidental exposure of cats to this product, keep cats separated from treated dogs until the application site is dry.
It is important that cats do not lick the application site of the veterinary medicinal product on dogs. In case of such exposure, seek immediate veterinary advice.
Special precautions to be taken by the person administering the veterinary medicinal product to animals
For veterinary use only.
This product may cause skin and eye irritation. Therefore, contact of the product with the skin or eyes must be avoided. Do not open the pipette near or towards the face. If accidentally sprayed into the eyes or if the eyes become irritated during product administration, immediate thorough washing with water is recommended. If ophthalmic irritation persists, seek medical advice.
Persons with known hypersensitivity to fipronil and/or permethrin should avoid contact with this product.
The product is harmful if swallowed. Avoid hand-to-mouth contact. Do not smoke, drink or eat during product application. Wash hands after use. In case of ingestion, rinse mouth with water and seek medical advice if you feel unwell.
As the excipient N-methylpyrrolidone can cause fetotoxicity and teratogenicity following prolonged exposure, pregnant women are advised to wear gloves to avoid contact with the product.
Avoid handling the animal until the application site is dry; children should also not play with animals until their fur is dry.
Therefore, it is recommended that animals are not treated during the day but in the evening, and that treated animals sleep alone during the night, not with their owners and especially not with children.
Keep pipettes in the original packaging and, once used, empty pipettes must be disposed of immediately in an appropriate manner to prevent further access.
Other precautions
The product can have harmful effects on aquatic organisms. Treated dogs should not be allowed to swim in watercourses for 2 days after treatment.
Use during pregnancy and lactation
Laboratory studies with fipronil and permethrin produced no teratogenic or embryotoxic effects. No studies have been conducted with this product on animals during pregnancy or lactation.
N-methylpyrrolidone, an excipient of the veterinary medicinal product, has been shown to have a teratogenic effect in laboratory animals after repeated exposure to high doses.
Use only based on a benefit/risk assessment by the veterinarian.
Overdose
Safety of use was evaluated in healthy adult dogs treated with a dose up to 5 times higher than the maximum recommended dose (treated 3 times at monthly intervals) and in puppies (8 weeks old, treated once). Among the known adverse reactions, mild neurological symptoms,
vomiting, and diarrhea may occur. These symptoms are transient and usually disappear without treatment within 1-2 days. Animals should always be treated with the pipette corresponding to their weight.
