The worldwide trend towards the return to natural remedies in human medicine has led a number of livestock owners, but also owners of pets, to application of phytotherapy as one of the basic treatment methods of supplementary medicine in animal health care.

   Phytotherapy is a therapeutic method based on the use of medicinal plants in treatment, prevention, support and supplementation of treatment of sick people and animals. Phytotherapeutics are multicomponent mixtures, characterized by wide therapeutic spectre thanks to the large quantity of substances, are gentle to animal organism and have substantially less side effect compared to synthetically produced preparations.

  Although phytotherapy in veterinary practice is as old as domestic animal breeding itself, and is being used by a lot of animal owners in animal health care today, scientifically based, specifically oriented veterinary phytotherapy is still at the development stage. This is why large human medicine studies in the field of medicinal plants should be applied to adaptation to veterinary phytotherapy.

  PHYTOVET preparations use in their composition medicinal plants whose favourable effects on the individual types of illnesses have been known for years not only from traditional popular medicine, but whose efficiency and active substances have been scientifically examined and approved.

  Obviously safer approach of herbal treatment also corresponds with the interest in environmental protection and natural remedies growing all over the world. Application of phytotherapy in veterinary practice offers extension of therapeutic means and in combination with other therapeutic approaches it ensures safe, animal friendly and environmentally friendly treatment.
