For over 20 years melatonin implants have been used in the treatment of millions of fur bearing animals including: ferrets, mink, fox, raccoons, dogs, cats, rabbits along with large animals. The original function of the melatonin implant is to stimulate the furring process. However, research by caring veterinarians that work with ferrets have determined that the melatonin implant provides an effective treatment for adrenal disease by both fighting the adverse effects of the disease and by stimulating new hair growth.
Our company is proud to introduce "FERRETONIN" and "DERMATONIN" , an injectable melatonin implant that time releases the 100% natural melatonin consistently over a 120 day period. Stimulating the regrowth of hair and fighting the effects of Adrenal Disease in ferrets and A-Typical Cushings - Alpoecia-X in dogs.
