How to use an Adaptil Express Tablets
Adaptil Express Tablets should be orally administered to your dog before a stressfully noisy event takes place. They take approximately two hours to begin working, so are best given in advance of a specific event. Additional tablets may be given after six hours have elapsed. Dosages do vary based on the size of the dog receiving them, though. They are as follows:
- Half a tablet for dogs weighing up to 10kg
- One tablet for dogs weighing 10-20kg
- Two tablets for dogs weighing 20-30kg
- Three tablets for dogs weighing over 30kg
These tablets may be safely used in conjunction with other Adaptil products such as collars and the Home Diffuser, but are only suitable for occasional individual events. Adaptil Express Tablets should not be used for ongoing issues as veterinary intervention is more appropriate. Similarly, Adaptil Express Tablets should not be used in an attempt to reduce a given dog’s aggression towards humans or other animals.
Adaptil Express Tablets are not suitable for use in pregnant or lactating dogs, and can be used from eight weeks of age.
