Protexin Denamarin Tablets provide effective liver support for dogs and cats. Protexin Denamarin contains a stabilised form of the naturally occurring and biologically active S,S-SAMe isomer and Silybin which has been complexed with phosphatidylcholine. This is known to have a greater bio-availability than silymarin alone, so more of the product is taken in and used by the body.
Tablets
Tablets should be given on an empty stomach at least one hour before a meal for optimum absorption (an overnight fast is preferred). The number of tablets administered may gradually be reduced, or increased, at any time at the recommendation of your veterinary surgeon.

Our elderly bitch had some health issues flagged up in her bloods and the vet suggested this supplement, which seems to have helped.

Definitely a great help in conjunction with low fat food to help the digestion

Well the product is fine and for 7 days I noticed it worked. Then my lucky seemed lethargic again. Turns out she had been spitting them out around the house. Little devil she is.

Unfortunately, my cat didn't like the food once this capsule powder was mixed through and I also tried the liquid version of this and it was the same.
These medication companies need to start making smaller test size packs as I've wasted almost £70 on something I can't use...
Very quick delivery etc from VioVet, it is just this product that I have the problem with.

Below are some recent questions we've received regarding Protexin Denamarin Liver Supplement for Dogs & Cats, including answers from our team.
Sally Embley
Hi can I give this to a 12 week old Deerhound puppy with liver shunt? Thanks
There is no reason this supplement will not be safe for supporting a 12 week old puppy's liver, however you should only give supplements/food/medication alongside your vets advice if they have a liver shunt. Changes to the diet can affect the condition depending on the severity so it is important your vet approves the use beforehand.

I find it very difficult to get my dog to take the tablet. Sometimes it takes two or three attempts, by which time the tablet is losing its coating. Will this make any difference to the tablet's effectiveness? We have sometimes given it with a small amount of food, is this a problem?
The enteric coating of Denamarin protects the SAMe from degradation in the stomach so that the maximum amount can be absorbed in the small intestine. If the coating is lost then it is likely to be less effective. It is better as you say to give with a very small amount of food then give a main meal one hour later.
Amanda Lloyd
Is Protein Denamarin a better option then Hepatosyl plus for liver problems?
Both products contain very similar ingredients. However it is thought that Denamarin is more bio-available so more of the product is absorbed and used by the body. Although, to my knowledge there have not been any studies which compare the two so it is difficult to say with certainty that Denamarin is better.

Hello, as per the guidelines we give our Jack Russell the Denmarin 1 hour before eating, always in the morning. shortly we will be leaving her at a kennel for 8 days, will administering it with food be an issue for this short period. Some neighbours of ours always give it with food? Many thanks. Dan
Giving it with food is often what people have to do, though it is less good than doing it as recommended. It will reduce the effectiveness of that particular dose, because the active ingredient will not be absorbed fully from the gut and will "come out the other end" without ever getting to the liver. However some will be absorbed and for a short period of a few days it is unlikely to make a noticeable difference. Ideally ask the kennels to give the medication with a minimal amount of food, then give a meal later. If they cannot then it should not be a disaster.

Is a prescription required for Denamarin?
No, Protexin Denamarin can be bought without the need for a prescription.
