Myristin® Hip & Joint Health Supplement for Dogs and Cats

 Members of the American Holistic Veterinary Medical Association have been giving Myristin® to dogs and cats, and other animals, since 1996.

Myristin® Hip & Joint Health Supplement for Dogs and Cats combines the best joint health products, including Glucosamine Sulfate and Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM), with our signature product, Cetyl Myristoleate (CMO), in a chewable tablet. The CMO Complex in each tablet offers 100mg of CMO.

Will dogs or cats like the taste?

An all-natural bacon flavoring makes tablets highly palatable for dogs and cats. Some competitors' joint formulas omit MSM from their products because dogs, in particular, do not like its taste. The MSM in our formula is coated, so there is no taste to it and no need for excessive flavorings.

How much should I order?

Myristin® Hip & Joint Health Supplement for Dogs and Cats comes in two convenient sizes: a small 120 count tablet bottle and a large 240 count tablet bottle. The 120 count bottle is an appropriate amount (see instructions below) for small dogs, cats, and other small animals. The 240 count bottle is preferable for customers with large or multiple dogs, and dog breeders.

Side Effects and Allergies

This product is formulated with dogs and cats in mind. Please ask a veterinarian about suitability and amount before giving to other animals.

Some choose to instead give a combination of our Myristin® softgels and Myrist-Aid capsules to pets with allergies to ingredients in Myristin® Hip & Joint Health Supplement for Dogs and Cats. This is a useful alternative that offers many of the same benefits to your dog or cat.
