There are a number of benefits to compounding pet medications, one of which being the ability to flavor the medications. We often get asked questions about what flavor will be best for a certain medication or species. While it does depend on the specific pet (just like how humans have different flavor preferences), here’s some guiding information on pet medication flavoring based on what we’ve seen to be popular.
Did you know for companion animals, we have 30 different pet-friendly flavors backed by our flavor guarantee? If a pet won’t take a medication because of flavor palatability, we’ll replace the flavor within 7 days for free! Not only is great customer service important to us, but so is pet compliance.
Additionally, all our flavors are vegan and hypoallergenic. Our pet medication flavorings are made of a proprietary blend of medium chain triglycerides or MCTs. They do not contain any proteins or allergens like meat, soy or nuts.
We get asked flavor questions all the time, but it really does come down to the preference of each animal. As humans, we try different flavors all the time. Why not let our furry friends in on the fun too?
Here are a few general tips from our pharmacists:
We took a look at the most popular pet medication flavors by species from Mixlab orders over the past year.
Some other fun flavors we have are Piňa Colada, Cherry, Raspberry, Vanilla, Butterscotch, Cheesecake, Turkey, and Venison. Just because a flavor is popular for a certain species doesn’t mean every pet will like it. That’s why we have 30 pet medication flavorings to choose from to maximize compliance!
We also took a look at some of our top medications from 2023 and the most popular medication and flavor combinations we saw. Keep in mind that in 2023, our most common species served were dogs and cats and the flavors by pet medication are likely reflective of that.
