How does Vivitonin work?

Vivitonin tablets contain propentofylline which is derived from xanthine. It has a range of affects on the body, including improving the blood flow to the heart, skeletal muscle and the brain. It also opens the airways to the lungs. It also has a mild stimulating effect on certain nerve cells in the brain. The result is an  improved blood and oxygen flow to parts of the brain and often a brighter, more responsive dog.  Many become more alert, lively and willing to exercise.

What are the Vivitonin side effects?

These are very uncommon. Vivitonin is not recommended for use in pregnant or lactating bitches because safety in these situations has not been tested. Dogs with poor kidney function might accumulate the drug in the body more than others, leading to a possible overdose. Excessive stimulation of the heart or brain could lead to a slightly increased heart rate agitation and excitement, but are unlikely to be serious. Vivitonin is generally regarded as a very safe drug.
