Herbal Tinctures Explained
Proflax tinctures explained
The herbs used in Proflax tinctures have been carefully selected for their therapeutic benefits. The dried herb is taken and put through a process called maceration, which means that the herb is steeped in a solvent in order to extract the beneficial bioative compounds. The solvent used is called ethanol.
How safe are tinctures that have been macerated in ethanol?
Tinctures are generally safe for dogs when used as directed, thanks to the extremely low amount of alcohol in the final product. Although ethanol is used during the extraction process to pull out beneficial plant compounds, most of the alcohol is removed afterward. What remains is a minimal amount—far below harmful levels—which is then further diluted when blended with our oils (either flax or fish). In fact, 75% of the final mixture is oil, and only 25% is the herbal tincture blend.
To put this into perspective, it would take around 375 drops of pure alcohol consumed all at once, to pose a danger to dogs, which is far in excess of what would ever be used in a single serving. Plus, tinctures aren’t pure alcohol to begin with. The small doses recommended for dogs contain alcohol levels that are well below any toxic threshold, making them both safe and effective when used properly.
Should you be at all concerned about using Proflax tinctures, please consult your own vet for advice, as they will have your dogs medical history.
Let customers speak for us
from 1059 reviewsI wouldn't want to be without it now!
This has literally healed my dogs gut from the inside out! He previously had hair loss, allergic type skin and constant itch. After a tub of this, his hair has completely recovered, so much so, anyone I meet compliments it. He’s now a shiny black lab that doesn’t suffer from constant itch! I’ve tried everything else from diet to laundry powder, nothing beats this. Highly recommend
Arrived in schedule
Brilliant service, fast despatch and the products I have bought really do work.. Thank you.

I have been giving this to my spaniel for about 6 months
It just seems to take the edge off her shadow chasing so I can manage it better, without taking away from her lovely spanielness

Ive only just started using these but their tummytastic has done wonders for my elderly pooch so there is every reason to think these will work.
I bought this for a friend who's Staffy has been struggling with mobility since an operation to remove broken plates in his back leg, he has also been identified as having a reduced immunity, he has been taking this without a problem for two weeks and he is now keen to go for a walk, and is wanting to walk further
Love all the products you do , proflax oils really help my dogs coat
One of my dogs is always on high alert & naturally anxious. Following discussions with the vet we are working on helping him relax through training & changes in routine. Additionally I started using this oil & have noticed it is helping him relax & concentrate & as an added bonus his coat is silky and shiny.
