Verified Purchase

I was originally prescribed this by my vet for Diarrhoea but getting it direct from Viovet saved me pounds. Having a dog that will always eat anything he can find while on his walk I always keep some in the cupboard ready for use.

This produce always works well for my dog. She has a nervous disposition and hence sometimes we have loose stools . This product solves the issue promptly .

35 too small a volume
Verified Purchase

By on 5 February 2024

For my Labrador, 15mls is 3 doses. Unbelievably expensive! Ive previously bought 60mls and it was nothing like this price. However, I couldn't find anywhere less expensive.

Q & A

Below are some recent questions we've received regarding Protexin Pro-Kolin Advanced, including answers from our team.

6 March 2023 at 8:03am

Is it safe for cats ?

Melek Sasa

  • VioVet customer since 2021
  • From: Leicestershire, United Kingdom

I bought 30 ml for dogs by mistake. Can I use it for my cats ? Is it safe ?

  • VioVet Staff

We would best recommend using the formula for cats.

What size dose

Maurice Wilcox

  • VioVet customer since 2012
  • From: South Staffs, United Kingdom

The pro-kolin advanced 60ml only scales from 25kgs, what size dose for a 15kg spaniel.

  • VioVet Staff

Your 15kg dog will need a 15ml or 30ml syringe as the dose is 3ml twice daily (or 5ml if over 15kg). A 15ml should be enough if dosing at 3ml twice daily, this will last 2+1/2 days.

Can it be added to the food?

Marie

  • VioVet customer since 2021
  • From: Kent, United Kingdom

My cat doesn't like being held and having a syringe put in her mouth, it stresses us both out a lot, can this be added to her food instead?

  • VioVet Staff

Yes, this can be added directly to the food.

4 July 2022 at 11:51pm

Cobalaplex and /or Pro Kolin

Marie and Daisy

  • VioVet customer since 2021
  • From: Kent, United Kingdom

My cat has been diagnosed with a sensitive tummy and has become allergic to regular cat food and biscuits so the vet advised me to totally change her diet which I've done and to give her cobalaplex to help her regain the weight she's lost and to help firm up her stools. This has been ongoing for about 5 months. I was wondering if Pro kolin would help her and if we can use it instead of the cobalaplex, alongside it or not at all? Ideally I would like to help her regain the weight she'd lost and firm up her stools and generally make her feel better. She's 14 and weighs aprox 1.9kg, she's always been small so it's really important for me to help her in any way I can.
Your advise would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

  • VioVet Staff

It is recommended to discuss this with the vet who advised to give Cobapalaplex. Pro Kolin and Cobalaplex do have different ingredients and there may be a specific reason your vet has advised one over the other.

Syringe

MAS

  • VioVet customer since 2007
  • From: , United Kingdom

How do you use the syringe for calculating the correct dose?

  • VioVet Staff

The syringe itself comes with volume measurements on it. You will need to move the wheel up these measurements to choose the correct dose, as in the image below. The packaging will contain further guidance on how this is done:

Advance and normal

Nicky

What is the difference between the normal pro-kolin and the advanced? I’ve always used the normal before so what makes it different? I’m wanting to know before I make a purchase

  • VioVet Staff

Both Pro-kolin+ and Advance contain the following:

  • Probiotics
    A natural 'friendly' bacterium, Enterococcus faecium (DSM 10663/ NCIMB4b1707, which helps to keep the level of beneficial bacteria high and exclude pathogenic species.
  • Preplex prebiotics
    A prebiotic, consisting of fructo-oligosaccharide (FOS) and acacia (Gum
    arabic), which helps to feed and stimulate the growth of beneficial
    bacteria.
  • Kaolin
    A natural binding agent which helps to firm up the faeces.
  • Pectin
    To help soothe the gut lining.
  • Artificial flavouring
    To improve palatability and compliance.

Pro-kolin advanced contains the following extras:

  • Montmorillonite (an extra binding agent to firm up faeces)
  • Psyllium (to absorb extra water in the intestines and to regulate intestinal motility)
  • Beta glucans (to support the immune system).
  • Taurine (in cat Pro-Kolin Advance only, vital protein for normal feline function).

Pro-Kolin Advance has also had a clinical trial done, with it used on
Dogs with acute diarrhoea. It significantly improved speed of recovery
from acute diarrhoeas, a link to this research paper can be found here.

How long should I use this product for maximum effect?

Clare

Hello. I am using this once daily (not twice because one of my cats requires my friend to visit to help..) at 2ml. How long should I do this for, for maximim effect? I've been giving them 2ml daily for five days. The little one hasn't vomited since day one (she has bouts of vomiting: sensitive tum) and the boy's soft poo is firming up. I've also changed their food to Royal Canin Gastro-Intestinal. I'll appreciate your advice. Both products bought at good prices from Viovet, and quick delivery. Thanks. Clare

  • VioVet Staff

Protexin can be used daily indefinitely if required. It should not be needed for more than 5 to 7 days for the average episode of intestinal upset though, if the signs persist then I advise seeing your vet to check this is the correct treatment.
