Instructions on how to use Tsamax
Before giving your dog any drug, you must carefully study the instructions, otherwise you can only seriously harm its health! Everything is calculated in great detail, and the ideal effect of the drug can only be achieved if its quantity is calculated by weight. It is also worth noting that for treatment in certain situations, doses may vary slightly, but the standard amount is half a gram per kilogram of animal weight.
If you do not have special scales, then you should calculate using a teaspoon, which holds about 7 grams. This way, of course, it will not be possible to make accurate calculations, but this is the best option. As for preventive use (yes, it is also possible), then in this situation it will be enough to count 0.3 grams of the drug per 1 kilogram of weight. Please note that the drug should be taken once a day, and it is advisable to take it at the same time.
Be sure to read the instructions for the drug itself, from it you can glean additional information that is necessary for your pet. Don't ignore even the little things! They are also important! Self-medication should continue for at least 3 weeks, but more often its duration is about a month.
It is also worth mentioning the use of powder. Remember that it must be applied strictly evenly to the damaged area. If you are planning to treat otitis media, then you need to prepare the ear canal and, strictly following the instructions in the instructions, pour the medicine inside.

Operating principle of Tsamaks
As already described earlier, the main components of Tsamax for dogs are substances such as the mineral zeolite, which is contained in more than 90% of this medicine, as well as elemental sulfur. As for the structure of the product, it is worth comparing it with a simple sponge, the principle of which is to draw something inside. In this situation we are talking about some toxic substances that pose a particular danger to the dog. The drug is also capable of absorbing various heavy metals, as well as decay products of harmful microorganisms.
But Tsamaks also has another role, the essence of which is to perform the function of an ion exchanger, that is, to release beneficial substances while absorbing harmful ones. Thus, it is possible not only to protect the body, but also to significantly enrich it with minerals and other necessary compounds. As for sulfur, its role lies entirely in the synthesis of amino acids, which affect an important indicator - blood clotting. Sulfur also significantly activates the process of collagen production, while simultaneously strengthening the animal’s bone skeleton. It also affects the ligaments.
These compounds also have a unique complex effect, unique only to this drug. We are talking about the fact that the dog’s body begins to better resist various infections, and the exchange of microelements changes significantly, and only in a positive direction. The entire digestive system begins to perform its functions better. It is also worth noting the general changes affecting the coat and many internal organs, the functions of which return to normal.
Contraindications of the drug
It is also worth noting that Tsamax has no special contraindications for dogs, but it is still not recommended to start a course of treatment without the advice of a veterinarian. Don’t be alarmed if you notice changes after you start taking it; for example, many dog owners begin to complain about loose stools, this is normal! Thus, the body reacts to the beginning of the cleansing.
As for the principle of action of the powder, it is prescribed only for external damage, for example, for wounds or deep abrasions. The product helps to resist suppuration and many other skin diseases, but do not forget to consult a specialist.
It is also worth noting the additional components of the medicine, which are created to help the body, as well as to improve its condition:
- carbohydrates;
- lipids;
- unique additives;
- a nicotinic acid;
- carotene;
- vitamins of groups C, E, B;
- phytonutrients;
- amino acids;
- polyunsaturated fatty acids.
Is it possible to overdose?
Before the instructions regarding the drug Tsamax for dogs are discussed, it is worth discussing information about possible overdoses. Fortunately, it is completely absent. The fact is that during the entire period of using the drug, not a single case of an unfavorable outcome was identified. The manufacturer also did not report the possibility of any side effects resulting from an overdose of this medicine. And, as mentioned earlier, it is possible to state only one existing contraindication, the essence of which is the dog’s specific intolerance to a certain component, but such situations are almost impossible to predict in advance.
