With antioxidant nutrients Vitamins E and C, along with zinc, to support the body's natural defenses
|
This daily formula gives your pet both Omega-3 and Omega-6 fatty acids for skin support at an economical price. Contains a more-preferred ratio of these two fatty acids than both Derm Caps and Shed Stop. Also contains the antioxidant nutrients Vitamin E and Vitamin C, plus zinc, to help maintain the body's natural defenses. We recommend combining with Biotin.
How the key ingredients work
- Omega-3 helps stabilize normal cells against the effects of potentially damaging substances.
- Linoleic acid is an Omega-6 fatty acid that helps keep moisture in the skin. When the skin has a normal amount of moisture, it supports a healthy, lustrous haircoat.
- Vitamin E, Vitamin C and zinc are antioxidant nutrients. Antioxidant nutrients help neutralize outside cell invaders called "free radicals." Free radicals oxidize components of the cells, including those in the skin, and damage them, like rust oxidizes and damages steel.
- Zinc also works with over 200 enzymes in the body for proper cell health and metabolism and skin function.

Frequently Asked Questions
| Q. |
Do Drs. Foster & Smith Vitacaps have to be taken with a Biotin Supplement? |
| A. |
Drs. Foster & Smith Vitacaps do not have to be taken with Biotin, but Vitacaps work even better when given with Biotin.
|
| Q. |
What is the difference between Vitacaps and Vitacoat? |
| A. |
Vitacaps is a concentrated source of Omega 3 fatty acids, with vitamins and minerals (including antioxidant nutrients). Vitacoat and Vitacoat Plus contain high concentrations of Linoleic and Linolenic Omega 6 fatty acids. Vitacaps supports healthy skin and coat. We recommend Vitacoat for a shiny coat.
|
| Q. |
Can Vitacaps be given with other daily vitamins? |
| A. |
Yes, there is no danger of providing a dog or cat excessive levels of vitamins, minerals, or fatty acids when using the products as recommended.
|
| Q. |
How long before I can expect to see results? |
| A. |
Vitacaps is a nutritional supplement that works from the inside out to give your pet healthier skin and a shinier coat. It will take approximately 4 to 8 weeks before you begin to see results.
|
| Q. |
Can I give Vitacaps to my pet with diabetes? |
| A. |
There are no ingredients in Vitacaps that should cause your diabetic pet's blood sugar levels to rise. If you are concerned about what kind of supplements your diabetic pet needs, consult your veterinarian.
