Clomicalm (Clomipramine) Tablets

Clomicalm (Clomipramine Hydrochloride) Tablets for Dogs

Product Description

Clomicalm is a veterinary-prescribed tablet formulated specifically to help manage anxiety-related behaviors in dogs—particularly separation anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorders. By balancing serotonin and other neurotransmitters in the brain, Clomicalm helps reduce undesirable behaviors (such as excessive barking, inappropriate urination, and destructive chewing) that can strain the human-animal bond. Unlike temporary “quick fixes,” Clomicalm provides a sustained approach to mental wellness that improves quality of life for both pet and owner.
Prescription items are NON-RETURNABLE and NON-REFUNDABLE. Packaging may arrive in a HardyPaw Pharmacy vial.
