Introducing a new range of products by Select Healthcare from NVS


We’re delighted to introduce a new selection of products in the Select Healthcare from NVS range, all developed to support specific areas of digestive health in dogs and cats. Each product targets a distinct aspect of the digestive system – from supporting the intestinal mucosa and development of puppies and kittens to tackling hairballs, impacted glands and ingested toxins.

ProRestore

Multi-level microbiome support

Triple-action symbiotic combining multispecies prebiotics, probiotics and postbiotics to support gut integrity and enhance gut-associated immune function in companion animals.

The combined approach of prebiotics, probiotics, and postbiotics can help:

  • Restore the balance of intestinal microflora
  • Digestion and nutrient uptake
  • Create a healthy intestinal immune system
  • Reinforce the intestinal mucosa
  • The barrier to pathogenic bacteria
  • Allow for immediate support alongside helping reestablish the healthy, balanced microbial population

Prebiotics: Fuel for good bacteria

  • FOS (fructo-oligosaccharides) – stimulate Bifidobacteria and Lactobacilli
  • MOS (mannan-oligosaccharides) – help prevent pathogenic adhesion and modulate immune responses
  • Beta-glucans – derived from yeast; activate immune cells via Dectin-1 receptors

Probiotics: Live microbial allies

  • Enterococcus faecium – improves stool consistency and microbial balance
  • Lactobacillus acidophilus – supports mucosal immunity and digestion

Postbiotics: Bioactive molecules from non-living microbes

  • Include short-chain fatty acids, peptides, and cell wall fragments
  • Offer benefits without requiring colonisation
  • Strains – L. helveticus, L. paracasei, L. plantarum provide anti-inflammatory and barrier-protective effects.

Code: 958773, ProRestore, 150g


Duostart

Complimentary feed for puppies & kittens

Complementary feed with colostrum and beneficial bacteria to support the natural development of new-born puppies and kittens, strengthen the immune system and promote both innate and adaptive responses. 

Benefits:

Passive immunity – provides immediate protection against infections.

Specificity – contains antibodies that target specific pathogens that the mother has encountered, also modulates macrophage and T lymphocyte activity.

Gut protection – protects the intestinal lining and reduces gastrointestinal infection risk.

Enhanced immune response – stimulates the developing immune system to build its own responses.

Long-term benefits – helps shape and strengthen future immune responses.

Active ingredients: Nucleoglobulin, Enterococcus Faecium, vitamins and minerals

Code: 956056, Duostart Puppies & Kittens, 15ml


Glandvet

Targeted GI support for anal gland health and associated problems such as itching and discomfort.

  • Promotes good anal gland function
  • Helps to improve gut microbiome
  • Promote better stool consistency
  • Rich in soluble and insoluble fibre
  • Decreases flatulence

Active ingredients:

Probiotic – Enterocous faecium, Lactobacillus acidophilus

Prebiotic fibres S. cerevisiae, Beta-glucans, MOS, psyllium and oat fibre.

Enzymatic and antioxidant – Ananas comosus (bromelain), Carica papaya (papain), Aspergillus oryzae (alpha amylase) and Vaccinium myrtillus.

Essential minerals & nutritional support – sodium, potassium, magnesium, iron, selenomethionine and zinc, L-glutamine, glycine and nucleotides.

Code: 955619, GlandVet Chews, pk 30


Movipet

Complimentary feed for cats & dogs

To support healthy intestinal movements and aid in the removal of hairballs.

Active ingredients:

Vitamin E – an antioxidant that protects the gut from oxidative stress and inflammation and supports the intestinal barrier function.

Malt – rich in soluble fibre, which enhances the gut microbiome and promotes overall gut health. Also provides vitamins and minerals.

White mineral oil – lubricant function which coats the ingested hair and mild laxative.

Soya oil – lubricant, mild laxative and source of omega 6-fatty acids which can promote overall health.

Glycerine – moisture retention, laxative effect by softening stool.


Code: 955851, Movipet, 30ml

Activated Charcoal


A formulation with a high concentration of activated charcoal to help with absorption and excretion and promote good hepatic and kidney function.

Activated charcoal also contains:

Glycerineacts as a cathartic, increasing the urge to defecate, and decreasing GIT transit time and systemic absorption of toxins.

Sorbitolretains water in the large intestine through osmotic pressure, exerting a diuretic, laxative and cathartic effect.

Curcumin – aids in renal and liver protection by reducing the expression of tight-junction proteins, suppressing proinflammatory cytokines, and the reduction of oxidative stress within the liver.

Piperineenhances absorption of curcumin, thereby increasing clinical outcomes of free radical scavenging and downregulation of inflammatory mediators.


Activated Charcoal Liquid (first administration)

  • Bottle with applicator syringe to deliver directly to tubes

Activated Charcoal Paste (Follow on)

  • Dial-a-dose syringe for easy administration
  • Wide nozzle bore for ease of flow
    • Reduces pressure needed on plunger
    • Reduces risk of blocking and sudden product release
    • Up to 75% wider than other products

Code: 958451, Activated Charcoal Liquid, 110ml

Glycerineacts as a cathartic, increasing the urge to defecate, and decreasing GIT transit time and systemic absorption of toxins.

Curcuminaids in renal and liver protection by reducing the expression of tight-junction proteins, suppressing proinflammatory cytokines, and the reduction of oxidative stress within the liver.

Probiotic Digestive Paste for cats & dogs

Probiotic Digestive Paste combines Diosmectite with prebiotics and probiotics for the reduction of acute intestinal absorptive disorders during periods of and recovery from acute diarrhoea.

Probiotic Digestive Paste contains:

Prebiotic – MOS prebiotic supports the intestinal flora and binding of pathogens, preventing adhesion to the intestinal wall so they are excreted.

Probiotic – live bacteria and yeasts to aid recovery

Amino Acid – glutamine is a major source of energy for enterocytes that supports and enhances the absorption of water and salts.

Energy Supply – instant source of energy for when the digestive system is compromised.

Immune – beta glucan helps provide favourable conditions for natural flora.

Electrolytes – helps restore electrolyte levels

Designed for ease of use:

  • Paste in dial-a-dose syringe
