chewable tablets are available in 8, 16, 32, and 64 mg tablet
strengths for oral administration to dogs.
The active ingredient in RECONCILE chewable tablets is fluoxetine
hydrochloride, a selective
serotonin reuptake inhibitor (SSRI). The molecular weight of

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION:
The recommended dose of RECONCILE chewable tablets is 1-2 mg/kg

alone.

The effectiveness and safety of RECONCILE chewable tablets was
demonstrated in a field study in
client-owned dogs (see EFFECTIVENESS and ADVERSE REACTIONS). At the
end of the 8-week
study, 73% of dogs treated with RECONCILE chewable tablets showed
significant improvement
(p=0.010), as compared to behavior modification alone (51%). During
the course of therapy, 42% of
®
dogs showed improvement within the first week, which was significantly
greater (p=0.005) than with
behavior modification alone (18%)
