Respiration or Xanthis?
- Respiration: supports the airways and the self-cleaning capacity of the mucous membranes. Suitable when mucus forms and a cough lingers.
- Xanthis: for animals that are sensitive to pollen and dust, as soon as the grass flowers or the hay starts to fly.
Both formulas contribute to free, quiet breathing, and they combine well with each other.
Mind the environment
Dust, smoke and a stuffy room do the airways no favours. Make sure there is fresh air, shake out cushions and beds outdoors and keep hay as dust-free as possible. That way you help what the herbs do from within.
When to have it checked first
If your animal is short of breath, or is listless and feels warm, always have it seen by a professional first. Our herbs are complementary feed and can support alongside.

Frequently asked questions
Respiration supports the airways in general and the self-cleaning capacity of the mucous membranes. Xanthis is meant for animals that are sensitive to pollen and dust. The two combine well.
Yes. Respiration and Xanthis are suitable for dogs, cats, sheep and goats. Only the dose differs per species.
Many people start as soon as they notice their animal reacting, for example when the grass flowers or when hay is being handled. For the first ten days you give a higher dose, then a maintenance dose.
