Dr. Wilhelm Schuessler, a German doctor, established the theory of Biochemic medicine in 1873. Dr. Schuessler combined the principles of biochemistry with homeopathy to give us these 12 natural cell salts, each derived from one of the 12 inorganic mineral compounds most important to an animal's cellular health. Biochemic tissue (or cell) salts are not drugs, instead they are vital, natural cell-foods.
They can stimulate the body’s natural healing mechanisms to satisfy mineral imbalances. In his biochemic theory, Dr. Schuessler states that deficiencies in these minerals are the source of common health problems and the cell salts derived from these minerals give the body what it needs to heal and be well.

The instructions for use found on the container pertain to human use. Please use the serving suggestions found below for your dog or cat.
Cell salts are natural mineral salts found in the body so they are very safe. It is recommended they be treated similar to homeopathics with as little handling as possible and provided away from meals.
You may use the cap or a spoon to place in your dog's mouth. Use your fingers as a last resort if it is easier that way.
Cats can be a little more difficult if you can't get a pellet in their mouth. Then we would suggest dissolving the pellet in a small amount of water, like 1/2 tsp, and then using a dropper to squirt into your cat's mouth. If this is still difficult, then use a smaller quantity of water in their water bowl and place two or three pellets in their water daily.
If more than one cell salt is recommended the serving instruction apply to each different cell salt.
There is an older style pellet that is smaller and then a newer style that is larger and a round tablet. It depends on available inventory which one you will receive until the older style pellet inventory is depleted. How will I tell the difference? The smaller pellets are in 500ct and the larger tablets are in 100ct bottles
Storage - store at room temperature and keep dry.
