Product Details
Protexin lists crude protein, crude fibre, crude fat, crude ash and ash insoluble in HCl as its declared constituents but does not publish the guaranteed analysis figures on its current product page, so none are stated here. The declared figures are printed on the pack itself.
Daily Feeding Guide
Add to food once daily for as long as considered necessary, or as advised by your veterinary surgeon. Pro-Fibre must never be mixed with hot food, or added before cooking, because this kills the beneficial bacteria. Let the food cool to no more than lukewarm first.
How To Give Pro-Fibre
- Weigh your pet or estimate its weight, then find the matching row in the daily feeding guide above.
- Measure the correct amount with the scoop supplied in the tub.
- Sprinkle over your pet's usual food and let it eat. Pro-Fibre is beef-flavoured, so most pets take it without fuss.
- Feed once a day, ideally at the same time, for as long as it is needed or as your vet advises.
Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Pro-Fibre is formulated for cats and dogs.
Can Pro-Fibre be given alongside other Protexin products?
Yes. Pro-Fibre is safe to give alongside all other Protexin products.
What is the youngest age Pro-Fibre can be used from?

Does Pro-Fibre need to be given as a single dose?
Protexin recommends giving the whole daily amount at once, but if your animal will not take it all in one go the dose can be split between two meals across the day.
Can I use Pro-Fibre Rabbit for my dog or cat?

Can I cook food and add Pro-Fibre to it?
No. Heat kills the beneficial bacteria. Mix Pro-Fibre into food once it has cooled to no more than lukewarm.
Storage And Safety
Store in a cool, dry place with the lid firmly closed and keep out of reach of children and other animals. If the tub has been left in direct sunlight it will not harm your pet, but some of the ingredients may lose effectiveness after exposure to heat. Do not use any Protexin product that has passed its best-before or expiry date.
