Q: Can I give Promaxol to my young pet?

A: Both mature pets and their younger counterparts can benefit from Promaxol, and it is safe for regular use in any pet, at any age.

Q: My pet just had surgery, is it too soon to start Promaxol?

A: Right after surgery, pets are vulnerable and should not move around too much. Because Promaxol helps relieve pain and support mobility, it could encourage premature movement in some pets, leading to possible injury. Continue working with your veterinarian to decide when the time is right for your post-surgery pet to start Promaxol.

Q: How do I give my pet Promaxol?

A: Pets love taking Promaxol because, when added to water, Promaxol is odorless, tasteless, and effortless. Simply add your pet’s daily serving to the water dish (even if it’s a community water dish – other pets can benefit from Promaxol too!), or if preferred you can add directly to your pet’s mouth. Please Note! Do not use a metal serving bowl for Promaxol, as the metal will neutralize the solution.

Q: How often should I give my pet Promaxol?

A: Your pet’s body will rely on a consistent stream of Promaxol, so it’s important that you give your pet a Promaxol serving at the same time every day. We recommend a minimum program of 3-6 months, up to 18 months for maximum results. Stopping or pausing the program could negate the benefits your pet has gained, so consistency is key. If you do forget a day, do not worry, just continue with the same serving size tomorrow.

Q: My pet’s joints and muscles appear very painful. How can Promaxol help?

A: Promaxol is a highly potent formula, so you donotneed to increase your pet’s serving. For fast-acting relief inside and out, you should have your pet take Promaxol orally, and you can also (gently!) massage a few drops of Promaxol topically onto the affected pain area. We encourage you to talk with your veterinarian and visit our Pain and Your Pet page for more information.

Q: Can my pet safely take Promaxol with medications?

A: The ingredients in Promaxol are completely natural, and Promaxol is safe to use in conjunction with any other natural health product. We recommend that you ask your veterinarian about any specific medication concerns you may have.

Q: How safe is Promaxol?

A: Promaxol contains only natural ingredients that are shown to be beneficial, without side effects. The homeopathic ingredients in Promaxol are listed in the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States, and Promaxol is listed with the FDA using a National Drug Code. Promaxol is manufactured under strict cGMP regulations.

Q: How long does one bottle of Promaxol last?

A: Your mileage with Promaxol may vary, depending on your pet’s individual weight and pain relief needs. We have found an average, one bottle of Promaxol lasts approximately one month. For pets that require more than one bottle per month, or for multi-pet households, we recommend you take advantage of our bulk order options for a significant savings on Promaxol.

Q: What is a homeopathic and oligotherapeutic therapy?

A: Homeopathy is based on the truth that our mental, physical and emotional health are all connected, and what affects one, affects all three. Oligotherapy is simply the practice of using trace minerals for therapeutic support, increasing metabolism and supporting enzyme functions. Conventional pain relievers typically only deal with physical symptoms, which is why 74% of Americans are turning to complementary forms of medicine for total healing.

Q: I still have more questions. Who can I ask?

A: We are happy to help you online when you email service@promaxol.com, or via phone when you call 1-87-PROMAXOL.

Q: Did Faith find Promaxol, or did Promaxol find Faith?

A: This is the most common question and one that everyone behind Promaxol feels so good about. Faith had many offers from businesses asking her to try their product. And the fact is, she had tried other products. Then her vet referred her to Promaxol because it was the only one that she knew of that was completely natural. She tried it and contacted us!

Q: How often does Faith take Promaxol?

A: When Faith became part of the Promaxol family, we gave her owner enough to supplement Faith’s brother’s and sister’s diets as well. They get a serving enough for three dogs in their community drinking water. Because Faith drinks more (her chow mix makes her pant quite a bit), she gets a little more than the others, although she doesn’t need to take more than the average serving size because of Promaxol’s sheer strength, potency and continual effect on the cells.

Q: Does Faith need Promaxol in order to live?

A: As with any supplement, Promaxol does not cure or treat any illness or disease. Faith takes Promaxol as a supplement in order to keep her immunity at top notch for all the traveling and appearances she makes. Because her body has evolved into the posture it has, she needs to take it, but she would not become sick and debilitated if she discontinued use. In fact, if she were to stop taking it, she wouldn’t even notice the change right away because of the extent that her cells have regenerated. Over time she would notice a difference, and joint pain could become too much to bear.

Q: How long has Faith taken Promaxol?

A: After receiving offers from many companies, her owner Jude was told by her vet to be wary. Faith had a lot of time yet for her body to grow and develop from a puppy to a dog. By the time she was age seven, her vet was sure she did all the growing that was necessary and her body was at a hiatus, and she could start to take a supplement for maintenance and regeneration. So at age seven she started Promaxol.

Q: Why does Promaxol help Faith?

A: The accomplishments that one dog can perform are enough to wear most humans out. At an early age their bodies are telling them go go go, and they are always full of life. Short attention span or not, dogs are born with bursts of energy that seem limitless until their age catches up to them or arthritis sets in. Promaxol helps in the way that most preventative medicine helps people. She takes Promaxol just like her water or food, and it keeps her cells at optimum performance through proper hydration and mineral absorption. When her cells are functioning properly, her body can make the necessary changes to keep her feeling as good as she can. Why? Because she is a jet setter, mover and shaker, and she has no time for doggy rehab!

Q: How common is joint or muscle pain in pets?

A: Many pets will naturally lose flexibility and strength as they age, but nature and nurture both play a role. Some pets and breeds are more susceptible to joint damage than others, and the quality of your pet’s diet and exercise can make a significant difference. Joint and muscle pain are much more likely for any pet who is not in good overall health. Obese pets are especially at risk, because of extra weight the joints must carry. According to the Arthritis Foundation, one in every five U.S. adult dogs suffers with arthritis.

Q: What causes joint and muscle pain in pets?

A: Several factors can play a role in pain formation:

• Infection
• Excess weight
• Lack of exercise
• Immune system complications
• Previous injuries
• Breed and genetics

Q: Does my pet have joint or muscle pain?

A: You can tell by paying attention your pet’s behavior. If your pet gives you any of these signs, consult your veterinarian.

• Stiffness or soreness
• Slower movement than usual
• Weight gain
• Resistance to touch
• Abnormal walking
• Hesitancy to use stairs or do any climbing
• Lethargy or depression
• Hot or swollen joints

Q: Could my pet’s pain be linked to arthritis?

A: Arthritis is a common condition among humans and their pets, so it’s a possibility. Older and out-of-shape pets are more likely to develop arthritis. Your veterinarian will be able to give your pet a thorough examination and proper diagnosis.

Q: What is arthritis?

A: Arthritis is literally “joint inflammation”. It might involve a deterioration of the cartilage or synovial fluid imbalances. If it is a problem with the cartilage, your pet may not feel it until the problem is well advanced, as cartilage has no nerves. Arthritis can develop in various forms, such as bacterial arthritis, osteoarthritis, or rheumatoid arthritis. Symptoms of arthritis in pets include pain, swelling, and stiffness.

Q: What is the average age a pet develops arthritis?

A: Arthritis can happen at any age, but even a healthy dog has a 65% chance of developing arthritis between the ages of 7 and 11.

Q: What can I do to help my arthritic pet?

A: There is no cure for arthritis, so prevention and maintenance throughout your pet’s life is the best plan. If your pet is already experiencing arthritis, try any of these tips to help ease the pain:

• Organic diet for weight control and overall health
• Moderate exercise
• Joint-supportive supplements
• Gentle massage
• Careful affection and petting
• Plenty of soft warm places for your pet to rest
• Reduce stair use, even with a baby gate

Q: Can I still take my arthritic dog for walks?

A: Absolutely! Even dogs with arthritis can benefit from walks as a chance for exercise and joint movement. Time your walks so they aren’t too long, and walk over a softer surface, like grass, rather than pavement.

Q: My pet seems withdrawn from me and my family. What about affection?

A: As with any disease, some pets with arthritis will get depressed, but they will always need our love and attention. Just be very careful about how you caress your pet, and avoid tender areas.

Q: Can I give my pet human pain medicine?

A: Certain drugs – like aspirin and acetaminophen – can be dangerous or even toxic for pets. For more information, please visit our Pain and Your Pet page, or consult your veterinarian.
