FAQ

Can I use products with xylitol on my pets?

No, xylitol should never be used on pets. While it’s a natural and safe sweetener for humans, xylitol is toxic to animals and can cause serious health issues, even in small amounts. Please keep products containing xylitol, like our Herbal Toothpowder Tabs, out of reach of pets. If you’re looking for oral care products for your pet, consult your veterinarian for safe options.
