Vetoquinol packs 30 capsules in the box, and the product is labelled for cats and dogs between 10 and 22 lb. The capsules are lactose-free, so the ingredient list stays to that milk protein at its stated amount.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eWhat the active ingredient is\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach capsule delivers 75 mg of hydrolyzed milk protein from a bovine source, and that protein provides alpha-casozepine according to the manufacturer.
