Nutramax Proviable Chewable Tablets

The label for Nutramax's Proviable Chewable Tablets lists seven bacterial strains: Enterococcus faecium, Bifidobacterium bifidum, Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus helveticus, Lactobacillus delbrueckii, Lactobacillus casei, and Lactobacillus plantarum. The guaranteed analysis reads "Total Bacteria min....5 billion CFU's per tablet," so each tablet is formulated to deliver at least 5 billion CFU. The fact-pack doesn't specify whether that count is guaranteed through the product's expiration date or only measured at the time of manufacture — the label simply doesn't say. There's no prebiotic fiber listed on this version, and no other active ingredients beyond the bacterial blend. Storage is straightforward: room temperature, kept below 77°F and out of direct sunlight, no fridge needed.

What's missing from the label is any specific health claim — there's nothing here about digestion, immunity, or stool quality, just the strain list and CFU count. Dosing is flat: one tablet a day regardless of the dog's weight, with no tiered chart by size. That makes it a simple fit for owners who want a single daily chewable without doing math based on their dog's weight, though it also means a 10-pound dog and a 100-pound dog get the identical dose per the label. This version is labeled for dogs only. An Amazon listing for this product does exist (ASIN B08BW6HPCM).
