Zylkene 225mg Capsules - Pack of 20

Zylkene 225mg Capsules - Pack of 20

Zylkene is a supplement that contains alpha-casozepine, a milk-derived ingredient obtained through a careful enzymatic process. It has been developed to support dogs that experience anxiety or stressful situations on a regular basis. The 225mg strength is often used for medium-sized dogs, although individual needs may vary.

Zylkene is designed to be given daily or as needed, based on guidance from a veterinary professional. It comes in capsule form, which can be offered whole or opened and sprinkled onto food. The aim is to encourage a relaxed demeanour without causing drowsiness or inhibiting the dog’s normal routines.

Anxiety in dogs can manifest in various ways. Some may pace, pant, or show signs of restlessness and agitation. Others might whine, bark, or exhibit destructive behaviour when left alone. Certain dogs become withdrawn or appear uninterested in their usual activities. Anxiety can be triggered by numerous factors, such as loud noises, unfamiliar environments, or changes in daily routine. Some dogs develop separation-related stress if they are not accustomed to being alone for extended periods. Others may react to sudden triggers like thunderstorms or fireworks. Prolonged anxiety can have a negative impact on a dog’s health and wellbeing, including loss of appetite or a decline in their general condition.

Zylkene 450mg Capsules - Pack of 20

Zylkene 450mg Capsules - Pack of 20

Zylkene 450mg for Dogs is designed to assist larger breeds that experience signs of stress or anxiety in everyday life. Each capsule contains alpha-casozepine, a decapeptide derived from casein. This compound is extracted through a specialised process that isolates the calming components of milk protein. The formula offers support to dogs that display restlessness, nervousness, or other indications of discomfort in specific situations. The aim is to help dogs feel more at ease when confronted with common triggers, without causing drowsiness or making them lethargic. This supplement works alongside your dog’s natural responses, promoting steadiness and composure.

Alpha-casozepine is at the core of Zylkene’s mode of action. It influences certain receptors in the central nervous system involved in regulating mood. By interacting with these receptors, alpha-casozepine can encourage a state of relaxation in dogs, making it easier for them to cope with unexpected events. This approach does not sedate or immobilise the dog but instead helps maintain balanced behaviour. The 450mg strength is intended for larger dogs, though individual requirements can vary. Some medium-sized dogs might also benefit from this potency. Guidance from a veterinary professional is advised to determine the most appropriate dosage.

Anxiety in dogs can manifest in many forms, depending on the individual dog’s temperament and environment. Certain dogs appear agitated by small changes, while others react only to more intense stimuli such as thunderstorms or fireworks. Some common signs include panting, whining, destructive chewing, or a general inability to settle. Others may lose interest in normal activities, refuse food, or hide away from people. Persistent anxiety can impact a dog’s overall wellbeing, leading to health concerns if left unaddressed. It is important to observe the dog’s behaviour patterns and consider any environmental factors that might be causing discomfort.

Zylkene Equine - Zylkene for Horses - 20 x 1g Sachets

Zylkene Equine - Zylkene for Horses - 20 x 4g Sachets

Zylkene Equine is a scientifically formulated calming supplement specifically designed to help manage stress and anxiety in horses. Utilising a natural milk-derived protein, Zylkene supports relaxation in horses facing challenging or stressful situations. Common scenarios include transportation, vet visits, competitions, training sessions, and changes in their environment. The supplement's gentle action promotes a calming effect without causing sedation or affecting performance negatively.

Horses, despite their size and strength, are sensitive animals prone to stress and anxiety when experiencing unfamiliar environments or circumstances. Signs of stress in horses may include pacing, pawing, sweating, behavioural changes, agitation, refusal to eat, or diminished performance. Prolonged stress or anxiety can also lead to further health complications, highlighting the importance of effective stress management strategies.

Zylkene Equine is developed from a unique ingredient known as alpha-casozepine. Alpha-casozepine is a naturally occurring peptide extracted from bovine milk that has demonstrated calming properties. Its effectiveness is backed by extensive scientific research, which shows that this peptide works by mimicking the action of calming substances naturally produced in the horse's body. Alpha-casozepine interacts positively with receptors in the brain associated with stress and anxiety responses, thus helping the horse to feel calmer and more at ease.

Unlike many traditional calming supplements or sedatives, Zylkene does not cause drowsiness or impair a horse's ability to perform normal activities. Horses receiving Zylkene remain alert, responsive, and fully capable of participating in training, competitions, or routine activities. Instead, the supplement facilitates a balanced and relaxed mental state, enabling the horse to better cope with stressful situations. By using Zylkene, horse owners and trainers can manage behavioural issues arising from stress without compromising the horse’s natural abilities or safety.
