How to give the drops
For optimal results, apply drops directly onto the mucous membranes of the mouth, including the lips.
- Dogs: pull out the labial pouch and apply drops directly
- Cats: raise the head gently until the mouth opens
- If direct administration is stressful, the liquid may be added to food, water, or milk
- Allow 10–20 minutes for dilution if the pet is sensitive to the alcohol preservative
- Some animals may briefly shake their heads. Cats may salivate temporarily
- Food, water, milk, or a light aerosol mist may reduce that sensitivity
