Why Dr Jane Miller Recommends It
“I recommend the Synbiotic DC to almost everyone. You just open the capsule and sprinkle it on food, and dogs and cats eat it without even noticing. It is a month's supply per bottle, and owners genuinely see the difference in stool consistency and overall gut health. Particularly after a course of antibiotics or a bout of gastroenteritis, re-establishing healthy gut bacteria with a pre and probiotic combination makes a real difference to how quickly pets recover.”
— Dr. Jane Miller, Veterinarian at Newtown Veterinary Clinic & Vets Love Pets Partner

Started this to help the sensitive tummy our senior gsps daily dose of meloxicam was giving her. Anytime she ate anything out of her normal diet it was giving her the runs. With this daily probiotic those weekly runs stopped.

How Synbiotic Supplements Benefit Your Four-Legged Friends
Understanding the importance of gut health is crucial for every pet parent. Synbiotic supplements work by introducing beneficial bacteria to your pet's digestive tract while simultaneously providing the nourishment these good bacteria need to thrive. For cats and dogs alike, these formulations can help restore balance after antibiotics, reduce occasional digestive upset, and support a healthy immune response. Our veterinary-endorsed Synbiotic D-C capsules are specially formulated to address the unique digestive needs of both dog supplies and feline companions, making them an excellent addition to your pet care routine. With regular use, you'll likely notice improvements in your pet's overall wellbeing, from more regular bowel movements to increased energy and vitality.
Frequently Asked Questions
Synbiotic D-C is a daily probiotic and prebiotic supplement for dogs and cats, used to support a healthy gut microbiome and improve digestive function. It is commonly used after antibiotic treatment to restore beneficial gut bacteria, during or after digestive upsets, and as an ongoing daily supplement for pets with sensitive digestion or recurring gut issues.
Synbiotic D-C and Pro-Kolin+ Probiotic Paste both contain Enterococcus faecium and Preplex prebiotic, but serve slightly different purposes. Synbiotic D-C is a higher-potency capsule (2 billion live probiotics per capsule) better suited to daily supplementation and post-antibiotic recovery. Pro-Kolin+ paste additionally contains kaolin and pectin, which actively firm stools, making it better suited to acute diarrhoea where immediate stool-firming support is needed. Synbiotic D-C is also soya-free.
Synbiotic D-C can be given during antibiotic treatment, though timing matters. Ask your vet for guidance on spacing. Continuing Synbiotic D-C after the antibiotic course ends is particularly valuable for restoring the gut microbiome.
Synbiotic D-C capsules can be opened and the contents sprinkled directly onto food. This makes them easy to administer to cats or dogs that resist taking capsules whole. The probiotic and prebiotic contents remain effective when mixed with food.
Synbiotic D-C is safe for long-term daily use and can be given indefinitely as an ongoing gut health supplement. For post-antibiotic recovery, a course of at least 2–4 weeks following the end of antibiotic treatment is commonly recommended. For acute digestive upsets, continue until normal stools are consistently restored.
