Available in concentrated powder, concentrated capsules, standard capsules, standard powder, and whitefish-flavored tincture. Do not use in patients with Yin deficiency. Stop administration immediately if the patient develops diarrhea, vomiting, or other unusual signs. May be used as needed for up to 6 months, or as directed by your veterinarian.

Holistic veterinarians commonly recommend it for pets with cardiovascular patterns rooted in Heart Qi deficiency or systemic signs of Qi deficiency with Blood stagnation affecting the Heart, particularly when accompanied by a pale or purple tongue, a weak and choppy pulse, and signs of Cold in the chest. Do not use in patients with Yin deficiency.

For the 90g concentrated powder, the dose for dogs and cats is 0.1g to 0.25g per 10 to 20 lbs of body weight twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian; the small scoop holds approximately 0.4g and the large scoop holds approximately 1.2g. For horses, the standard dose is 3g (approximately 2.5 large scoops) twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian. For 0.5g concentrated capsules, the guideline is one capsule per 20 to 40 lbs of body weight twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian. For small dogs and cats under 10 lbs, one 0.2g concentrated capsule once daily, or as directed by your veterinarian. For the whitefish-flavored tincture, the guideline is 10 drops per 5 to 10 lbs of body weight twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian; each full dropper holds approximately 20 drops; store refrigerated for best results. Standard capsule and powder dosing varies; your authorizing veterinarian will provide specific guidance. Do not use in patients with Yin deficiency.

In patients with Yin deficiency, the warming and Yang-tonifying nature of this formula can aggravate the existing Yin deficiency, generate additional Heat from Yin deficiency, and worsen Shen disturbance and restlessness. Patients with Yin deficiency and Shen disturbance are better served by Yin-nourishing and Shen-calming formulas such as Heart Yin Tonic.

Based on a modified Yang Xin Tang, this ten-herb formula pairs a Spleen and Lung Qi-tonifying chief duo (Huang Qi, Dang Shen) with a channel-warming deputy (Rou Gui), a Blood-nourishing and invigorating pair (Dang Gui, Chuan Xiong), a Shen-calming pair (Bai Zi Ren, Yuan Zhi), an astringent Shen-calming assistant (Wu Wei Zi), a Spleen-protecting and Shen-calming herb (Fu Ling), and a harmonizing envoy (Gan Cao) to address both the root Heart Qi deficiency and the Blood stagnation and Shen disturbance that arise when Heart Qi fails to move Blood through the Heart channel. Available in concentrated powder, concentrated capsules, standard capsules, standard powder, and whitefish-flavored tincture. Do not use in patients with Yin deficiency. Stop administration immediately if the patient develops diarrhea, vomiting, or other unusual signs. May be used as needed for up to 6 months, or as directed by your veterinarian.

Holistic veterinarians commonly recommend it for pets with cardiovascular patterns rooted in Heart Qi deficiency or systemic signs of Qi deficiency with Blood stagnation affecting the Heart, particularly when accompanied by a pale or purple tongue, a weak and choppy pulse, and signs of Cold in the chest. Do not use in patients with Yin deficiency. Your authorizing veterinarian will confirm the appropriate TCVM pattern diagnosis before recommending Heart Qi Tonic.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eHow is Heart Qi Tonic administered, and what are the dosing guidelines?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eDosing varies by species and body weight; your authorizing veterinarian will provide specific guidance. For the 90g concentrated powder, the dose for dogs and cats is 0.1g to 0.25g per 10 to 20 lbs of body weight twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian; the small scoop holds approximately 0.4g and the large scoop holds approximately 1.2g. For horses, the standard dose is 3g (approximately 2.5 large scoops) twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian. For 0.5g concentrated capsules, the guideline is one capsule per 20 to 40 lbs of body weight twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian. For small dogs and cats under 10 lbs, one 0.2g concentrated capsule once daily, or as directed by your veterinarian. For the whitefish-flavored tincture, the guideline is 10 drops per 5 to 10 lbs of body weight twice daily, or as directed by your veterinarian; each full dropper holds approximately 20 drops; store refrigerated for best results. Standard capsule and powder dosing varies; your authorizing veterinarian will provide specific guidance. Do not use in patients with Yin deficiency. Stop administration immediately if the patient develops diarrhea, vomiting, or other unusual signs.

In patients with Yin deficiency, the warming and Yang-tonifying nature of this formula can aggravate the existing Yin deficiency, generate additional Heat from Yin deficiency, and worsen Shen disturbance and restlessness. Patients with Yin deficiency and Shen disturbance are better served by Yin-nourishing and Shen-calming formulas such as Heart Yin Tonic. Your holistic veterinarian will assess your pet's specific TCVM pattern to determine whether Heart Qi Tonic or a Yin-nourishing formula is the most appropriate choice based on pulse quality, tongue appearance, and clinical presentation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eCan Heart Qi Tonic be combined with other TCVM formulas or medications?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eHeart Qi Tonic is sometimes used alongside other TCVM formulas as part of a comprehensive Heart and cardiovascular support protocol, but combination use should always be guided by your authorizing veterinarian.

Do not use in patients with Yin deficiency, and stop administration immediately if the patient develops diarrhea, vomiting, or other unusual signs.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e"}
