Recommended by holistic veterinarians, Herbsmith Rx Frankincense Relieve Soreness is a Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM) herbal formula that moves Blood, addresses Blood Stasis, and supports comfort and normal tissue recovery after activity in dogs and cats. This focused six-herb combination brings together San Qi (Notoginseng root), the Frankincense-Myrrh pair, Hong Hua, Dang Gui, and Niu Xi for complementary Blood-moving, channel-opening, and nourishing actions. In TCVM, stiffness and tissue discomfort following exertion may be assessed as Qi and Blood stagnation; your veterinarian determines whether that pattern fits your pet rather than assuming all exercise causes clinically significant Blood Stasis. San Qi contributes traditional stasis-resolving and bleeding-stopping actions, while Ru Xiang and Mo Yao move Qi and Blood, Hong Hua broadens Blood movement, Dang Gui nourishes Blood, and Niu Xi supports the sinews and bones and guides action downward. Use after a specific activity or as part of an ongoing care plan depends on the veterinarian's assessment and follow-up. Available in powder (75g-1200g) for dogs and cats and tablets (90-count and 270-count, 900mg) for dogs. Dosing varies by species and body weight; your authorizing veterinarian will provide specific guidance. Not to be used in pregnant pets.

The existing tablet ranges do not specify a dose for a dog weighing exactly 10 lbs and leave a gap between the under-10-lb and 11-lb categories. The powder ranges overlap at 80 lbs. Confirm these boundary doses with your authorizing veterinarian rather than choosing a range. No feline tablet dose is supplied; use the prescribed feline powder directions. Continue for the prescribed duration, or as directed by your veterinarian. Not to be used in pregnant pets. Review medications, bleeding concerns, and planned procedures before use. Stop administration and contact your veterinarian if a suspected adverse reaction occurs.

Frankincense Relieve Soreness combines stasis resolution through San Qi, paired Qi and Blood movement through Ru Xiang and Mo Yao, broader Blood movement through Hong Hua, Blood nourishment through Dang Gui, and downward direction with sinew and bone support through Niu Xi.
Herbsmith Rx Frankincense Relieve Soreness contains Blood-moving San Qi, Dang Gui, Hong Hua, Niu Xi, and the Frankincense-Myrrh resin pair. San Qi's traditional bleeding-stopping action does not remove the need to assess possible effects on bleeding or medication compatibility. Dogs and cats taking prescription medications should use this formula under veterinary supervision because herb-drug interaction research in dogs and cats is limited. Not to be used in pregnant pets.
Medication categories warranting extra caution include anticoagulant or antiplatelet medications, NSAIDs used for musculoskeletal management, and multiple concurrent prescription medications. Discuss any bleeding disorder or planned procedure with your veterinarian before use. Stop administration and contact your veterinarian if a suspected adverse reaction occurs; active bleeding or rapidly worsening signs requires prompt veterinary care. Your veterinarian can determine appropriateness based on your pet's condition, current medications, and laboratory results.

It provides a focused Blood-moving and channel-opening strategy for dogs and cats whose stiffness and soreness fit a veterinarian-confirmed Qi and Blood stagnation pattern, including presentations following activity. San Qi contributes stasis resolution, Ru Xiang and Mo Yao move Qi and Blood, Hong Hua extends Blood movement, Dang Gui adds nourishment, and Niu Xi supports sinews and bones and guides action downward. Your veterinarian evaluates persistent or worsening signs rather than assuming they are a normal consequence of exercise.

For dogs 30-80 lbs, give 1 teaspoon twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian. For dogs 80-120 lbs, give 1½ teaspoons twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian.

Confirm the tablet dose for exactly 10 lbs or other weights in the gap between the under-10-lb and 11-lb categories, and the powder dose at the overlapping 80 lb boundary, with your authorizing veterinarian. No feline tablet dose is supplied. Continue for the prescribed duration, or as directed by your veterinarian. Not to be used in pregnant pets.
Daily or ongoing use is an individualized veterinary decision, not a blanket safety claim based on the formula's six-herb composition. Review prescription medications, bleeding disorders, pregnancy status, and planned procedures before starting. Not to be used in pregnant pets. Continue for the prescribed duration, or as directed by your veterinarian, with reassessment of comfort, function, tolerance, and any appropriate laboratory results. Stop administration and contact your veterinarian if a suspected adverse reaction occurs. Active bleeding, sudden inability to bear weight, or rapidly worsening signs needs prompt veterinary care.
Frankincense Relieve Soreness centers on six ingredients for Blood movement, Qi movement, and channel support, with San Qi and the Frankincense-Myrrh pair prominent in its strategy. A broader constitutional formula may address additional patterns alongside stagnation. Selection depends on the pet's actual signs, underlying deficiencies, medications, and response, not simply whether the problem is recent or longstanding. Your authorizing veterinarian should review the current composition of any comparator and decide which approach fits; do not combine formulas without reviewing overlapping ingredients and the care plan.
