affects the functional state due to the normalization of metabolism and effects
on cerebral circulation through increase in the blood flow velocity and a reduction in vascular
tone. Phenibut has a pronounced
stress-correcting effect, provides the normalization of the processes of

also used to prevent kinetosis (airsickness syndrome).
ROUTE OF ADMINISTRATION AND DOSAGE
Administer to cats
orally in a forced onto the tongue root, into cheek pouches or combined with a
small quantity of sweets taking the body weight, nervous state, and excitation
degree of the animal into account at the following daily doses:

manifestations of airsickness (vomiting) appear, the intake of the medicinal
product is of low efficacy.
To correct
behavior in case of increased sexual activity, administer the medicinal product
at the same doses in combination with contraceptive agents. The duration of the
