Supporting Circulation and Cognitive Function in Ageing Dogs
Vitofyllin 50mg is a veterinary medicine formulated to support circulation in older dogs. It contains propentofylline, an active ingredient that enhances blood flow, particularly to the brain and muscles. Improved circulation helps maintain cognitive function, mobility, and overall quality of life in senior dogs.
Ageing can affect a dog’s cardiovascular and nervous systems, leading to reduced mental alertness, lower energy levels, and difficulty with movement. Vitofyllin is designed to promote oxygen delivery to key organs, which may help delay the progression of age-related decline.
How Vitofyllin 50mg Works
Vitofyllin contains propentofylline, a xanthine derivative that acts as a vasodilator. It works by widening blood vessels, improving blood flow, and increasing oxygen supply to the brain and muscles. This effect can enhance cognitive function, helping older dogs remain more alert and responsive to their environment.
The improved circulation also supports muscle function, allowing for better mobility and endurance. Dogs that experience fatigue or stiffness may benefit from the enhanced oxygen delivery, which helps maintain energy levels and physical activity.
Propentofylline also has mild anti-inflammatory properties and may help protect cells from oxidative stress. Ageing is associated with increased free radical damage, which can contribute to cognitive decline. By improving blood flow and reducing oxidative damage, Vitofyllin supports brain health and may help maintain normal behaviour patterns in older dogs.

Benefits of Vitofyllin for Older Dogs
Older dogs may experience a decline in brain function, leading to changes in behaviour, confusion, or restlessness. Vitofyllin supports cognitive function by improving oxygen supply to brain cells, which may help slow mental decline. Dogs taking Vitofyllin may show increased awareness, improved interaction with their owners, and better adaptation to their surroundings.
Poor circulation can contribute to reduced mobility and muscle weakness in ageing dogs. Vitofyllin helps improve blood flow to muscles, promoting movement and physical activity. Dogs that struggle with stiffness or low energy levels may benefit from improved oxygenation, which can support endurance and overall wellbeing.
Some older dogs may become withdrawn or less responsive to their environment. By enhancing circulation to the brain, Vitofyllin may help improve mood and engagement. Dogs that were previously uninterested in play or social interaction may become more active and involved in daily activities.
Ageing can also affect the heart and vascular system. Propentofylline’s vasodilatory properties help maintain healthy circulation, supporting cardiovascular function. By promoting blood flow, Vitofyllin may assist in maintaining a stable energy level and preventing fatigue.
Administration and Dosage
Vitofyllin 50mg is available in tablet form and should be given as directed by a veterinary professional. The standard dosage is based on the dog’s body weight, with tablets typically administered twice daily. Tablets can be given directly or hidden in food to aid administration.
Consistency in dosing is important for optimal results. It may take several weeks before noticeable improvements in cognitive function and mobility are observed. Regular veterinary check-ups are recommended to monitor progress and adjust dosage if necessary.
Suitability and Considerations
Vitofyllin is intended for older dogs experiencing age-related circulation or cognitive issues. It should only be used under veterinary supervision. Dogs with specific health conditions, such as liver or kidney disease, may require additional monitoring.
Potential side effects include mild gastrointestinal upset, restlessness, or changes in appetite. These effects are usually temporary and resolve as the dog adjusts to the medication. If any concerning symptoms arise, veterinary advice should be sought.
Vitofyllin should not be used in dogs with known hypersensitivity to propentofylline or related compounds. It is also not suitable for use in breeding, pregnant, or lactating dogs.
Storage and Handling
Vitofyllin should be stored in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Tablets should be kept in their original packaging and out of reach of children and pets. Always follow veterinary guidance regarding dosage and duration of treatment.
