Frequently asked questions

What exactly is an oral dissolving film (ODF) for pets?

An orally dissolving film is a thin, postage-stamp-sized strip infused with precise doses of nutritional supplements. When placed in your pet’s mouth, it dissolves in seconds upon contact with their saliva, delivering the active ingredients without the need for water, chewing, or swallowing a pill.

How do I administer the dissolving film to my pet?

Simply open the individually sealed pouch with dry hands, remove the film, and place it directly onto your pet’s tongue, the roof of their mouth, or inside their cheek. The film melts instantly. You do not need to hide it in treats or force it down their throat.

Are these films safe? Is there a choking hazard?

They are entirely safe and were specifically designed to eliminate the choking hazards associated with traditional pills, capsules, or large hard chews. Because the film dissolves rapidly into a liquid state, there is nothing for your pet to choke on or spit back out.

Will my picky pet actually accept the film?

Yes. Our films are formulated with highly palatable, pet-approved flavors (such as chicken, beef, or salmon). Furthermore, because the dissolution is instant, picky eaters do not have the time to separate the supplement from their food and spit it out, which is a common issue with traditional pills.

Are dissolving films as effective as traditional pills or soft chews?

They are often more effective. ODF technology utilizes sublingual and buccal absorption—meaning the active nutrients are absorbed directly into the bloodstream through the tissues in the mouth. This bypasses the harsh acids of the digestive tract, leading to faster onset and significantly higher absorption rates (bioavailability) compared to traditional formats.

Can I use these films for both dogs and cats?

We offer specific formulas tailored to the unique nutritional requirements of different species and weight classes. While the delivery method is safe for both, always select the product formulated for your specific pet (dog or cat) and follow the weight-based dosage instructions on the packaging.

How should I store the dissolving films? Do they expire quickly?

Store them in a cool, dry place at room temperature, away from direct sunlight. Each film is individually wrapped in a medical-grade, airtight foil pouch, which protects it from humidity, oxidation, and contamination. This individual packaging ensures a long shelf life and maximum potency for every single dose.

Do you ship overseas, and will the films melt during international transit?

We ship globally to support pet owners worldwide. Our ODFs are engineered with advanced temperature-stable polymers, meaning they are designed to withstand the varying temperatures of international shipping without melting or degrading. The films only activate and dissolve when exposed to moisture.
