There is a possibility of mild side effects when first starting your pet on Glandex.

How do I give Glandex® to my pet?

Glandex® Soft Chews

Glandex Soft Chews have a taste that your pet will love. Simply give once daily following the recommended amount on the label.


Glandex® Powders

Glandex comes as a naturally flavored powder that you give with your pet's food once a day using the recommended amount on the label. The best way to give Glandex Powder is to sprinkle it directly on top of your pet's dry food. It can also be mixed with a small amount of warm water to create a gravy that your pet will love! Pets overwhelmingly love the taste of Glandex Powder and tend to eat their food more eagerly with Glandex mixed into it. Should your pet be extremely particular you can mix Glandex Powder into some canned food, yogurt, cottage cheese, peanut butter or any of your pet's other favorite food or treats. Glandex Powder can also be administered directly into your pet's mouth using a syringe or dropper with a small amount of water added.

How much is in one bottle of Glandex® and what is the daily amount?

Use the following Glandex® administration charts to determine the how much per bottle of Glandex and how long each bottle will last depending on the size of your pet. These charts also show how much to give your pet.

What is the difference between Glandex® Powder and Glandex® Soft Chews?

Our Glandex Powder and Glandex Soft Chews both contain the same active ingredients and both work equally well to help support healthy anal gland function. The main differences is that the Glandex Soft Chews are in a treat form while the Glandex Powder comes in a powder form that you sprinkle onto your pet's food. Also, please note that our Glandex Soft Chews are recommended for dogs only.

How many calories and grams of fat are in Glandex® Powder and Glandex® Soft Chews?

Glandex® Powders have 8 calories and 0.36 grams of fat per teaspoon serving (2.96 g)

Glandex® Peanut Butter Soft Chews have 13.7 calories and 0.54 grams of fat per 1 chew serving (4.0 g)

What is the main difference between the three size bottles of Glandex® Powder?

All three sizes of Glandex Chews or Powder contain the exact same ingredients, concentration, and dosing and the only difference between the different sizes is the amount of Glandex contained in each bottle. We offer three sizes of Glandex to give pet parents more options when purchasing Glandex and since larger pets will need a larger daily amount.

Does Glandex work for cats?

Yes, our Glandex® Feline Powder is designed and recommended to help support healthy anal glands in cats. Cats enjoy the delicious tuna flavor and it is easy to administer using the recommended amount on the label.

Will Glandex® help if my pet's anal glands are "leaking"?

Yes, Glandex can help support pet's that have leaking anal glands who may suddenly leave a discharge or have their anal glands empty spontaneously. Glandex can help in these situations as many pet's with leaking anal glands are either not emptying their glands properly on their own, or have very irritated and inflamed anal glands that are over secreting liquid.

Will I still need to have my pet's anal glands expressed?

It is recommended (but not necessary) to have your pet's anal glands emptied prior to starting Glandex. Intermittent or regular anal gland emptying may still be needed depending upon the severity of your pet's condition, however Glandex helps to support natural emptying of the anal glands. If you ever feel that your pet's anal glands need emptying, please seek proper veterinary attention.

What else can I do to help my pet's anal gland problems?

Along with using Glandex regularly, it is important to feed a diet that is made from high-quality ingredients and free from excessive fillers to help maintain firm and solid stools. Maintaining your pet's ideal weight is important as overweight pets may have increased difficulty emptying their glands. Regular exercise can help to tone and strengthen some of the muscles that help to empty the glands. If your pet has allergies than reducing exposure to these allergies can help to reduce anal gland problems. In conjunction with using our oral Glandex supplement it is also helpful to use our Glandex Wipes. Glandex Wipes help to maintain proper hygiene and also contain Vitamin E and Aloe to help soothe and clean the area.

I have been using Glandex® for a few weeks and do not see any improvement. What should I do?

Although typical results occur within 3-5 weeks, some pets may require a longer period of time to see the full benefits of Glandex. In general it may take up to 2-3 months to see the full benefits of Glandex. If you have been using Glandex for several weeks without any improvement, we recommend to increase to twice the recommended amount. Some pets may require more Glandex (and fiber) to see positive benefits. Finally, if you have not seen any improvement after 8-10 weeks (even with a higher amount) you may return your order for a full refund. All of our Glandex® products come with an unconditional 100% satisfaction guarantee that allows you to return Glandex for a full refund within 90 days of purchase.
