Continue to Canada sitePhycox MAX HypoAllergenic (HA) Soft Chews use the same Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein and allergy-free formula as Phycox HypoAllergenic, but with increased Phycocyanin and additional active ingredients for older or severely arthritic dogs with common allergies. The balanced blend of natural ingredients in Phycox HA MAX also helps improve and maintain total body health. These chews contain no mammalian protein or grains, yet have the same proprietary blend and efficacy as our other formulations. Only Phycox contains Phycocyanin, a natural anti-inflammatory and antioxidant derived from blue-green algae. Phycocyanin is clinically proven to inhibit COX-2, an enzyme that causes inflammation, and is more effective — with fewer side effects — than similar ingredients in other joint supplements. Phycox MAX HypoAllergenic contains additional phycocyanin and additional active ingredients to meet the needs of older or severely arthritic dogs. Pet owners and veterinarians alike trust Phycox for quality and effectiveness.

I give one a day to my dog, which is under the recommended doseage for his size. He has been taking these since he was 2 years old. He is now 7 and has no hip issues whatsoever. I really thing this works.
The vet recommended this product, and I'm happy to give it to my dog. She gobbles it down without problems. Since I just started her on it, I can't say how much it has helped her.
I purchase Phycox from Chewy and Amazon. This order was stale from chewy.
Dog won't touch them. Turned out to be an expensive waste of money. Unfortunately.
I was so excited to find a glucosamine supplement for my dog who is on a HA diet and also has arthritis and a bad knee. Unfortunately, he will not easily eat these. So far the only way I have tricked him into it is if I cut them into two and cover them in a pill pocket, then he will consider them. And if I then alternate a treat, marshmallows, of course for the HA baby, with each half, I can, over many minutes, convince him to maybe eat some of the pieces. Super frustrating for such a pricey product! I will keep trying and hope I come up with new strategies to help his leg and not aggravate his food allergies!
Our 2 American Labs just love these chews and think that they are the worlds best "treats". They will do anything for them. They had been experiencing some back and hip troubles, but by adding these into their diet, they seem to be doing a good job. They are happy, so we are happy!!
This product is excellent. It is palatable for my pup and he takes it easily with or with out food. I compared the cost of buying the ingredients separately and this is really cost effective. sure beats trying to pill him or opening up a bunch of capsules. Also no worries whether or not he is allergic to any of the ingredients.
excellent products my dog is responding I will definitely buy again
My senior dogs have severe arthritis. I use the “max” for this reason and along with their prescriptions. When phycox is added to their daily diet, they seem to feel better. If took a couple of weeks but the difference is worth it. Any improvement in an old dogs movement is better than nothing. I do see improvements in mobility. The HA bite is a little too chewy for them, so i break it into pieces. My dogs aren’t crazy about the flavor, but eat it fine included in supper bowl.
These chews are extremely dry, my dog hardly takes them where before she’d gobble them down. They will expire in June 2022, but never had such a dry batch.
