Overview

An L-theanine chewable tablet from Virbac for calming small dogs and cats under 22 pounds, sold as 30 tablets at 50mg each.

Anxitane uses L-theanine as its active calming ingredient rather than melatonin, an approach different from most over-the-counter calming chews. It is sized specifically for pets under 22 pounds, and Virbac lists both cats and dogs as suitable species. The tablet is flavorless and banana-free.
