At Impromune for dogs is a dietary supplement in tablet form.

In the following guide you will learn everything about the correct dosage and use of Impromune in dogs as well as possible side effects and alternatives.
Impromune for dogs: what it is and what it is used for
Impromune for dogs is used when the fur nose’s immune system is weakened.
A weakened immune system in dogs, in turn, can be caused by a wide variety of factors, such as the following:
- Infection of the gastrointestinal tract
- malnutrition
- stress & anxiety
- overweight
- coat change
- Old
Even after drug therapy, the immune system may well have been affected, which is why strengthening it can make sense.
Medication, on the other hand, is necessary if the dog has contracted a disease caused by bacteria, viruses, fungi or parasites.
Impromune can provide daily support so that these have less chance of affecting the dog’s health in the future.
Already knew?
The dog’s immune system is complex and is formed to almost ¾ in the dog’s intestinal tract or is located there.
Impromune for dogs is also used as part of leishmaniasis treatment or even as an alternative treatment.

Good to know
If you accidentally give your furry friend too much Impromune on one day, that’s no problem. Then you simply skip the Impromune dose the following day.
You can give Impromune to your dog before, with or after food.
It is eaten by most four-legged friends without hesitation. But of course there are also one or the other niggle nose.
Here we recommend giving Impromune with your favorite treat.
For very stubborn cases, you can grind it up, mix it with water and put it directly in its mouth with a feeding syringe.
Unfortunately, despite the score line, it is not easy to break the Impromune tablet in half. You can usually only do this with a knife.
