Anxocare is a herbal behaviour modifier that helps control anxiety, hyperexcitability and aggression in pets, using calming adaptogenic herbs, and can also enhance learning and receptivity during training.
Composition: Brahmi (Bacopa monnieri) 136mg - a nervine tonic that relieves nervous irritation and enhances mental performance; Ashwagandha (Withania somnifera) - an adaptogen with anti-stress properties; Mandukaparni/Gotu Kola (Centella asiatica) - supports memory and protects against cognitive dysfunction.
Indications: Anxiety due to fear, separation, travel, unfamiliar people/pets, new environments, or loud noises; hyperexcitability, restlessness, and aggression; enhancing receptivity and learning during training.
Dosage: Small-breed dogs: 1-2 tablets twice daily. Large-breed dogs: 2-3 tablets twice daily. Cats: 1 tablet twice daily, or as directed by the vet.
Directions for use: Give directly as a treat or mixed into food, twice daily - ideally starting before a known stressful event (travel, fireworks, vet visits) for best effect.
How does the medicine work? : Brahmi calms nervous irritation and enhances cognitive receptivity, Ashwagandha provides adaptogenic anti-stress support to increase physiological resilience, and Gotu Kola supports memory and protects against cognitive decline - together reducing anxiety while supporting mental clarity.
Possible side effects: Generally well tolerated as a herbal formulation; this is supportive care and not a substitute for vet-directed management of severe or diagnosed anxiety disorders.
