Reconcile Chewable Tablets for Dogs 32mg (Fluoxetine) Pack of 30 are a veterinary prescription-only medicine specifically designed to aid in the treatment of separation-related disorders in dogs.

These palatable, beef-flavoured tablets contain fluoxetine, an active ingredient that helps manage behaviours such as destructive actions, excessive vocalisation, and inappropriate urination or defaecation when your dog is left alone. Reconcile is most effective when used as part of a comprehensive behavioural modification programme recommended by your veterinary surgeon.

Description

Understanding and addressing separation anxiety in dogs can significantly improve their quality of life and your bond with them. Separation anxiety is a common condition where dogs exhibit extreme distress when separated from their owners or attachment figures. This can manifest as barking, howling, destructive chewing, or house-soiling, often causing distress for both the pet and the owner.

How Reconcile Helps with Canine Separation Anxiety

Reconcile Chewable Tablets for Dogs 32mg (Fluoxetine) Pack of 30 works by modulating serotonin levels in the brain, helping to reduce anxiety and fear. As a Selective Serotonin Re-Uptake Inhibitor (SSRI), fluoxetine helps your dog feel calmer and more receptive to behavioural training. It's important to remember that Reconcile is an aid and should always be used alongside a tailored behavioural modification plan from your vet.
