Indication
A nutritional aid in the prevention and management of intervertebral disc disease (IVDD) in small and chondrodystrophic breeds — dachshunds, corgis, French bulldogs and the rest of the long-backed, short-legged group whose discs degenerate early.
Recommended from as young as three months, because in these breeds the useful window is before the first episode rather than after it.

Notes
- No glucosamine or chondroitin. Deliberately formulated for disc support rather than synovial joint support.
- Prevention is the point. Proven to help prevent degeneration of the intervertebral discs, which is why the start age is so early.
- Palatable tablet. Easy to dose daily over years, which is what the indication actually requires.
