Product Details
Virbac GlucoCARE Advanced is supplied as a 250g powder for daily addition to dog food. The formula is registered in South Africa as an animal-use nutritional product.
| Product Detail | Information |
|---|---|
| Brand | Virbac |
| Product type | Chondroprotective joint-support supplement |
| Suitable for | Dogs |
| Format | Powder |
| Pack size | 250g |
| Administration | Sprinkled over food |
| Guaranteed moisture | Maximum 10% |
| South African registration | V31851, Act 36 of 1947 |
The Advanced formula provides a concentrated combination of glucosamine, MSM and chondroitin, together with collagen and selected supportive nutrients. These ingredients are commonly included in canine joint supplements to support cartilage structure and normal mobility.
The 250g container is suitable for dogs across different weight groups. The duration of the container depends on the dogβs body weight and the daily serving used.
Virbac recommends both short- and long-term use. Once improvement is well established, the manufacturer advises reducing the daily amount to half of the standard recommendation rather than stopping completely.
Ingredients
Each 5g serving contains the following active nutritional ingredients:
| Ingredient | Amount per 5g |
|---|---|
| Glucosamine hydrochloride | 1,800mg |
| MSM (methyl sulphonyl methane) | 750mg |
| Chondroitin sulphate, low molecular weight 7β10kDa | 600mg |
| Omega-3 | 50mg |
| Hydrolysed collagen | 50mg |
| Ascorbic acid | 50mg |
| Manganese | 3mg |
Glucosamine and chondroitin are structural components commonly used in cartilage-support supplements. MSM supplies an organic sulphur source, while hydrolysed collagen contributes additional protein components associated with connective tissue.
Omega-3, vitamin C and manganese complete the formula. Vitamin C and manganese contribute to normal connective-tissue and cartilage-related nutritional processes.
The guaranteed analysis lists moisture at no more than 10%. Keep the powder dry and use only the measuring scoop supplied with the product.
Directions for Use
Sprinkle the recommended daily amount over the dogβs food. Determine the dogβs body weight before selecting the serving and ensure the full portion is eaten.
| Dog Weight | Daily Feeding Recommendation |
|---|---|
| Up to 20kg | Β½ scoop daily over food |
| 20kg to 50kg | 1 scoop daily over food |
| More than 50kg | 1Β½ scoops daily over food |
The supplement is recommended for short- or long-term use. Once improvement is well established, the daily amount may be reduced to 50% of the standard recommendation. Completely discontinuing supplementation may allow signs of discomfort to return.
- For animal use in dogs only
- Use the supplied scoop for consistent measurement
- Mix the powder with the dogβs normal food
- Ensure the dog consumes the complete serving
- Do not exceed the recommended amount without veterinary advice
- Consult a veterinarian before combining several joint supplements
