The smaller size makes them ideal for small breeds, picky eaters, and senior dogs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eQ2: What is phycocyanin, and how does it support joint health? \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eAns: Phycocyanin is a natural anti-inflammatory and antioxidant derived from blue-green algae. It is COX-2 selective, meaning it inhibits the inflammation-causing enzyme without the side effects associated with COX-1 inhibition seen in many traditional anti-inflammatory drugs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eQ3: How quickly will joint improvement become visible? \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eAns: An initial loading dose is given for 4 to 6 weeks at double the maintenance amount for maximum benefit. Many dogs show improvement during this period before transitioning to the lower daily maintenance dose for ongoing support.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eQ4: Should the chews be given with food? \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eAns: Yes, administer during or after meals. Feeding alongside food helps reduce the chance of gastrointestinal upset, such as soft stools or vomiting, and supports better absorption of the active ingredients in the formula.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eQ5: Are there any drug interactions to be aware of? \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003eAns: High doses can enhance the effects of anticoagulants.

The glucosamine ingredient is derived from shellfish, so dogs with severe seafood allergies should not be given this supplement.
