Vitamin supplement to improve the skin and coat for dogs.

NEKTON-Dog-H is a specialized vitamin supplement designed to meet all the essential vitamin needs of dogs. It contains a generous amount of biotin. This high biotin content ensures dogs have beautiful, shiny coats and optimal fur development. NEKTON-Dog-H is highly effective in addressing issues like rough and brittle coats, unnatural light spots, or changes in the skin.

Biotin plays a crucial role in various metabolic reactions and supports the overall growth, feeding, and reproduction of dogs. It specifically contributes to the health and condition of their skin and fur. When using NEKTON-Dog-H, it is important to avoid administering any other vitamin supplements simultaneously.

In many cases, animals are unable to produce enough biotin on their own, which is why it needs to be provided externally. When dogs lack sufficient biotin, they quickly display typical signs of biotin deficiency. This deficiency manifests as brittle, dry, and dull fur, often accompanied by graying hair that eventually becomes brittle and falls out. Additionally, biotin deficiency can affect the dog's skin, causing flakiness and a faded appearance. In more severe cases, it may even lead to eczema and itching.

Another factor contributing to biotin deficiency is the use of antibiotics or sulfonamides. Certain proteins, like avidin found in raw egg whites and turkey chicks, can bind to biotin and render it unusable for dogs.

Once NEKTON-Dog-H is used for a short period and the symptoms have improved, it is recommended to switch to NEKTON-Dog-VM as a supplement.
