PET | TAO Soothe Bladder Supplement (120 Tablets)

Description
Product Q&A

PET | TAO Soothe Bladder is a veterinarian-formulated urinary tract supplement for dogs and cats that combines Western botanical herbs with TCVM urinary herbs to support bladder health, reduce the risk of urinary tract infections, soothe inflamed tissues, and help maintain normal urine pH. Formulated by TCVM veterinarians and manufactured to NASC quality standards. For use in dogs over 12 weeks of age and adult cats.

What It Supports

Urinary tract health and UTI prevention: Cranberry proanthocyanidins and uva ursi arbutin reduce bacterial adhesion to bladder wall cells and provide antimicrobial activity against common UTI-causing organisms, including E. coli, C. albicans, S. aureus, and Proteus vulgaris
Bladder tissue soothing and mucosal protection: Marshmallow root mucilage forms a protective film over irritated bladder and urinary tract membranes, reducing discomfort and supporting tissue integrity during infection or stone passage
Diuretic support and urinary flushing: Juniper berry, marshmallow root, and the TCVM herbs Poria and Polyporus promote increased urine flow to help flush bacteria and dilute irritants from the urinary tract
Normal urine pH maintenance: Uva ursi converts to hydroquinone (a urinary antiseptic) in alkaline urine conditions, helping to maintain a balanced urinary environment
TCVM Kidney and Bladder support: Kochia, Poria, and Polyporus clear Damp-Heat from the Lower Jiao (the TCVM pattern underlying most urinary tract infections and inflammatory bladder conditions), promote urination, and support Kidney Qi

Common Signs of Urinary Tract Imbalance

Consult your veterinarian promptly if your dog or cat shows any of the following signs, as they may indicate a UTI or a more serious underlying condition such as kidney disease, Cushing's disease, diabetes, bladder or kidney stones, sterile cystitis, or bladder tumor:

Accidents in the house or inappropriate urination
Dark, cloudy, or blood-tinged urine
Straining or crying when urinating
Increased water intake
Excessive licking of the urinary opening
Lethargy, vomiting, or loss of appetite

Note: Dogs with Cushing's disease, those repeatedly treated with steroids, or catheterized dogs are at increased risk for E. coli-related bacterial UTIs and may particularly benefit from urinary tract support alongside veterinary care.

Active Ingredient Actions

Each ingredient in PET | TAO Soothe Bladder is selected for its specific role in supporting urinary tract health through Western botanical science and TCVM principles.

Western Botanical Herbs

Uva Ursi (Arctostaphylos uva-ursi, 210 mg):
Western: Leaves contain arbutin, which converts to hydroquinone (a urinary antiseptic) and glucose in alkaline urine; provides antimicrobial activity against UTI-causing organisms including C. albicans, E. coli, S. aureus, and Proteus vulgaris; high tannin content reduces minor urinary bleeding; antilithic properties support the body's ability to pass or prevent urinary stones; prophylactic use for one year has been shown to help prevent recurrent cystitis
TCVM: Clears Damp-Heat from the Bladder and Lower Jiao; promotes urination to relieve urinary strangury; supports reduction of Heat toxin in urinary tract infections; classified as cold in temperature and bitter in flavor
Cranberry Juice Extract (105 mg):
Western: Proanthocyanidins provide "anti-adhesion" properties that prevent E. coli from colonizing bladder wall cells, as confirmed in a 2007 study; anthocyanin pigments provide anti-inflammatory and antioxidant activity stronger than vitamin E; also contains manganese, vitamin K, vitamin C, fiber, and tannins; early research confirmed cranberry juice prevented E. coli colonization of cell walls in humans and mice
TCVM: Supports clearing of Damp-Heat in the Lower Jiao through its cold, sour energetics; mildly astringent action supports bladder tissue integrity; antioxidant compounds support Yin fluids and reduce Heat toxin
Juniper Berry (Juniperus communis, 105 mg):
Western: Volatile oil component terpinen-4-ol stimulates kidney filtration and increases urine flow, flushing bacteria and diluting irritants; antibacterial and antifungal properties have been shown to fight organisms resistant to antibiotics; boosts endogenous antioxidants including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase, and glutathione peroxidase; rich in flavonoids and polyphenols with free-radical-fighting properties; anti-inflammatory, helping reduce discomfort associated with bladder infections
TCVM: Promotes urination and clears Dampness from the Lower Jiao; mildly warming; helps flush excess crystals and uric acid; diuretic action supports Bladder Qi transformation
Marshmallow Root Powder (Althaea officinalis, 105 mg):
Western: Contains up to 35% mucilage, a gelatinous compound that forms a soothing protective film over irritated mucous membranes including the bladder lining and urinary tract; demulcent properties confirmed in a published study; antimicrobial, emollient, and immunostimulant properties; acts as a diuretic to increase urine flow; helps minimize discomfort associated with kidney stones by coating and protecting tissues during passage
TCVM: Moistens and nourishes Yin fluids of the Bladder and Kidney; soothes irritated mucous membranes by nourishing dryness and cooling Heat; complements the diuretic and antimicrobial herbs by protecting tissues while they are cleared

TCVM Urinary Herbs

Kochia - Di Fu Zi (Kochia scoparia, 79 mg):
TCVM: Clears Damp-Heat, stops itching, and promotes urination; used in TCVM for Damp-Heat patterns in the Lower Jiao presenting as urinary frequency, burning, or discomfort; classified as cold in temperature and bitter and sweet in flavor
Western: Anti-inflammatory and diuretic actions; supports reduced urinary tract inflammation and promotes urine output
Poria - Fu Ling (Poria cocos, 79 mg):
TCVM: Promotes urination, leaches out Dampness, and strengthens the Spleen to prevent Damp accumulation; calms the Shen (spirit) as a secondary action; one of the most widely used herbs in classical TCVM formulas for urinary and digestive Damp patterns; classified as neutral in temperature and sweet and bland in flavor
Western: Contains beta-glucans (pachymans) with immunomodulating, anti-inflammatory, and mild diuretic properties; supports healthy immune function alongside urinary clearance
Polyporus Extract - Zhu Ling (Polyporus umbellatus, 53 mg):
TCVM: Promotes urination and leaches out Dampness from the Lower Jiao; stronger diuretic action than Poria with additional heat-clearing properties; used for urinary difficulty, edema, and Damp-Heat conditions of the Kidney and Bladder; classified as slightly cold in temperature and sweet and bland in flavor
Western: Polysaccharide compounds support immune modulation and provide mild diuretic effect; supports renal tubular function and urinary output

Frequently Asked Questions

What is PET | TAO Soothe Bladder used for?

PET | TAO Soothe Bladder is a veterinarian-formulated urinary tract supplement for dogs and adult cats. It combines Western botanicals (cranberry, uva ursi, juniper berry, and marshmallow root) with TCVM urinary herbs (Kochia/Di Fu Zi, Poria/Fu Ling, and Polyporus/Zhu Ling) to reduce the risk of UTIs, soothe inflamed bladder tissues, promote healthy urinary flushing, and help maintain normal urine pH. It is especially supportive for pets with recurrent urinary tract infections, straining, or discomfort during urination.

What symptoms suggest my pet might benefit from Soothe Bladder?

Signs that may indicate urinary tract imbalance include accidents in the house, dark or cloudy urine, blood in the urine, straining when urinating, increased water intake, excessive licking of the urinary opening, or lethargy and loss of appetite. Always consult your veterinarian promptly, as these symptoms can have multiple causes, including kidney disease, diabetes, bladder stones, or sterile cystitis. Soothe Bladder is intended to complement veterinary care, not replace it.

How do the TCVM herbs in Soothe Bladder work alongside the Western botanicals?

The Western botanical herbs (cranberry, uva ursi, juniper berry, and marshmallow root) provide antimicrobial, anti-adhesion, anti-inflammatory, and tissue-soothing support directly within the urinary tract. The TCVM herbs address the underlying pattern: Kochia (Di Fu Zi), Poria (Fu Ling), and Polyporus (Zhu Ling) clear Damp-Heat from the Lower Jiao, which in TCVM is the root pattern of most urinary tract infections and inflammatory bladder conditions. Together, they address both the symptoms and the constitutional pattern driving urinary imbalance.

Are there any pets who should not use Soothe Bladder?

Soothe Bladder is contraindicated in pets with kidney disorders or conditions causing acidic urine, and use with caution in animals with renal disease, cardiac concerns, or those currently on prescription medications, as simultaneous drug absorption may be delayed. Do not use it long-term without veterinary supervision, and safe use in pregnant animals has not been proven. For kittens, consult your veterinarian before use. Always discuss new supplements with your veterinarian, particularly if your pet has an existing health condition or is undergoing treatment.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question

How long should it take to see improvement if given to a dog with a current confirmed infection that was not cleared with antibiotics?

Thank you for your question! We usually see improvement in 3 weeks. If there is no improvement at that point, then we recommend your dog be checked by your veterinarian for other issues like bladder stones, a tumor, or another underlying problem. Thank you for supporting Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine!
Hello, I have a 16 year old cat that has mild renal insufficiency normal for her age and otherwise very healthy and active. She has had occasional UTI's most of her life. Over that past 2 years I have had her treated for UTI symptoms such as urinating outside the litter box, lethargy, and howling during urination about every 3 to 4 months. Sometimes there is bacteria in her urine and other times blood and sometimes there is little evidence but she is treated with an antibiotic prophylactically. Would the Sooth bladder be safe for a cat her age with mild slightly elevated BUN and srcr and what would be the recommended dose?

Thank you for your question! Dr. Smith and Dr. Damron have experienced success with Soothe Bladder in their patients with similar cases as yours. The herbs in Soothe Bladder can help support your cat by making the bladder's environment less hospitable to bacteria. We recommend following the dosing on the package. If your cat is less than 5 pounds, we recommend splitting the dose in half. Thank you for supporting Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine!
Good afternoon How long can Sooth Bladder be given to a dog? I thought UVA Ursi should only be used short term not long term? Thank you

Thank you for your question! Soothe Bladder can be given long-term for prevention and maintenance of bladder issues. Uva Ursi is a powerful astringent, but since it's combined with antilithic herbs with demulcent and anti-microbial herbs such as marshmallow root in Soothe Bladder, the formula makes it safe to administer long term.
Hi, Is this product available to purchase anywhere is Australia? This product, along with the other herbal formulas for dog urinary/bladder issues, is what I'm after but cannot find anywhere else. Thanks!

Hi there, thank you for your question! We are currently working on expanding PET | TAO shipping internationally from the US. It's not located at any vet clinics or stores in Australia yet. If you're interested in PET | TAO food, treats or supplements, please fill out our contact form and provide your address and we'll get you a shipping estimate and see what ingredients are allowed to be imported. It may take us a few days to look into these regulations. If you already know what you're allowed to import, please let us know as this will speed up the process. If you're interested in Jing Tang herbals, these may already be available in Australia. We recommend contacting the Chi Institute in Australia at this link to see if there are any vets in Australia who carry the herbs: http://www.tcvm.com.au/
Could this be given to a cat, perhaps at a smaller dose?

Thank you for your question! PET | TAO Soothe Bladder is safe for cats. It comes in chewable tablets, which you can crush and mix into food, if you'd like! You can give one tablet twice daily for cats. Here's some more information about the ingredients in this soothing product:

Uva Ursi: https://pettao.com/5-ways-uva-ursi-soothes-dog-bladders/
Juniper Berry: https://pettao.com/know-juniper-berry-pet-bladder-health/
When will this product be available?

Hi there! This product should be available in about a week. Thank you for your patience.
Hello! I’m wondering if my 14 year old diabetic dog (controlled for 3 years) would be able to take this blend prophylactically? She has been free from bladder infections, but recently has had two within a month of each other. She is a spayed Aussie/Border/Kepie mix

Thanks for your question! Dogs often take PET | TAO Soothe Bladder as a preventative measure in addition to taking it during episodes of infection.

We also recommend PET | TAO Freeze Dried Beef Kidney (3-5 pieces a day) to support normal urinary tract and bladder health.

Hi, thank you for your question!
The product is made in the USA.
PET | TAO Transparency: How We Make Our Products
Why is kochia in this if when searching online it says it's toxic and poisonous to dogs?? I'm really interested in this product but that ingredient is holding me back, as I don't want to make my pet sick or kill her.

Hi, thank you for your question!

Yes, kochia (Kochia scoparia) can be toxic to dogs if eaten in large quantities and can cause nausea, vomiting, and liver and kidney issues. But to be toxic the dog would have to eat a very large amount of the plant. However, when used at a small dosage like in Soothe Bladder, it is used medicinally to treat inflammation and promote urination.

Kochia has been used in traditional Chinese and Japanese medicine for thousands of years to treat skin, eyes, and urinary tract diseases. Kochia is also currently used as herbal medicine in many pet supplements and TCVM herbs. Kochia is an excellent herb when used at the correct dosage.

Soothe Bladder was created by the TCVM-trained holistic veterinarian Ihor Basko https://www.drbasko.com/ and carries the NASC (National Animal Supplement Council) Seal. The National Animal Supplement Council (NASC) Quality Seal on a product indicates that the manufacturer has met the NASC's strict standards for quality assurance. The seal is a way for consumers to know that the company they are buying from is reputable and complies with regulations from an unbiased third-party regulatory entity. In addition, our founding veterinarians have been recommending Soothe Bladder in their clinic for many years, and it has always helped, never harmed.

Thank you for supporting Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine!

Wonderful!

My Sammie has had bladder / urinary Issues since we brought her home, beyond regular potty training. Dr Damron suggested these chews to supplement her bladder health. So far, since using these she hasn’t had to be on antibiotics! The only downfall is with this last bottle i’m having to coax her into taking them . Occasionally my other pupper will eat them if i don’t get to it fast enough..Thank you for your wonderful product that’s helping my Girl!

Jennifer, thanks for taking the time to leave us a great review! I hope Sammie continues to improve and feel comfortable. Crushing up the tablets into powder and mixing them into moist food or a little bit of peanut butter may help encourage Sammie to eat the tablets. Thank you for supporting our small business and White Oak Animal Hospital! - Sincerely, Samantha

Hopefully Optimistic

My 6 yr old doxsie had IVDD 4 yrs ago and recurrent UTI's have been an issue ever since. While it is early days she is not having as many accidents although excitement pee is an issue. I am hopeful that the UTI's will be less frequent .

Unable to give review

Unfortunately my amazing dog, Hank, passed on August 9,2024 from his Cushing's disease. I was giving him the product but his disease was already so advanced by the time I found TAO BS that I cannot determine whether or not it was helping.

Best bladder supplement for my dog

I’ve tried others from reputable brands but this is the only one that keeps my female dog’s bladder healthy as evidenced by no accidents and fully emptying. Please don’t ever discontinue this!

Still Monitoring Results

So far I have seen some improvement. But to clarify in addition to this supplement I am also using a Chinese supplement and the kidney treats. Waiting to see if this completely solves our issues. Praying for a miracle.

Together, they address both the symptoms and the constitutional pattern driving urinary imbalance.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eAre there any pets who should not use Soothe Bladder?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eSoothe Bladder is contraindicated in pets with kidney disorders or conditions causing acidic urine, and use with caution in animals with renal disease, cardiac concerns, or those currently on prescription medications, as simultaneous drug absorption may be delayed. Do not use it long-term without veterinary supervision, and safe use in pregnant animals has not been proven. For kittens, consult your veterinarian before use. Always discuss new supplements with your veterinarian, particularly if your pet has an existing health condition or is undergoing treatment.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e"}
