Synoquin EFA Capsules - Medium Breed
Synoquin EFA Capsules Medium Breed are a veterinary joint supplement designed for medium-sized dogs that require additional support for their joints, cartilage and mobility. They are commonly used in dogs showing early stiffness, in those recovering from orthopaedic procedures, and in active dogs whose joints experience regular impact. Synoquin EFA provides a carefully balanced combination of nutrients that work together to help maintain joint comfort and long-term joint health.
How Synoquin EFA Capsules work
Synoquin EFA contains a blend of purified glucosamine hydrochloride, chondroitin sulphate, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, vitamin C, zinc and essential fatty acids. These components support the normal structure and function of the joint in a complementary way.
Glucosamine and chondroitin are natural building blocks of cartilage and synovial (joint) fluid. They help the body to maintain and repair joint tissues, which is important for cushioning bones and absorbing impact during movement. N-acetyl-D-glucosamine further supports the production of glycosaminoglycans, which form a key part of cartilage and the protective lining inside the joint.
Vitamin C contributes to normal collagen formation, which is important for cartilage integrity, while zinc plays a role in tissue repair and general cellular health. The EFA element of Synoquin refers to essential fatty acids, including omega-3s such as EPA and DHA. These long-chain fatty acids help support the body’s natural anti-inflammatory processes, which can be particularly useful in dogs with stiff or sensitive joints.
By combining these ingredients in one capsule, Synoquin EFA offers an easy way to provide ongoing nutritional support for joint health. The Medium Breed presentation is specifically sized and dosed for dogs within the medium weight range, helping to ensure an appropriate level of active nutrients.

Description
When a joint supplement may help
Joint problems in dogs can develop for many reasons. Medium and larger breeds are often predisposed to conditions such as hip and elbow dysplasia. Ageing, previous injury, high-impact exercise, excess body weight and breed-related factors can all place additional stress on the joints.
Early signs of joint discomfort may include:
- Stiffness after rest or first thing in the morning
- Reluctance to jump into the car or onto furniture
- Difficulty climbing stairs or getting up from lying
- Reduced willingness to exercise or play
- Changes in gait, such as limping or “bunny hopping”
A targeted joint supplement can be a useful part of management alongside weight control, appropriate exercise and, where required, veterinary-prescribed medication.
Benefits of joint supplements in dogs
Joint supplements provide structural nutrients for cartilage and joint fluid, helping to maintain the cushioning and smooth movement within the joint. Many products, including Synoquin EFA, also supply vitamins, minerals and antioxidants that support the wider joint tissues and surrounding muscles.
Key potential benefits of joint supplements in dogs include:
- Support for healthy cartilage and synovial fluid
- Assistance with the body’s natural response to inflammation
- Help in maintaining mobility and range of motion
- Support for comfort during and after exercise
- Contribution to long-term joint health in dogs at risk of joint disease
For active dogs, joint supplements may help them cope better with regular training and high-impact activity by supporting the normal repair and renewal of joint tissues. For older dogs, they form part of a broader strategy that also includes controlled, gentle exercise and a suitable diet. Although joint supplements cannot reverse severe disease, they provide ongoing nutritional support that complements veterinary treatment and lifestyle management.
Administration and daily use
Synoquin EFA Capsules Medium Breed are usually given once or twice daily, depending on veterinary advice and whether a loading and maintenance programme is being followed. Capsules can be given whole, or opened and sprinkled onto food for dogs that prefer not to take tablets.
Consistent daily use is important, as joint supplements act gradually over time. It may take several weeks before the full benefits are noticeable, although some dogs may appear more comfortable sooner. This product is suitable for many medium-sized dogs that would benefit from additional joint support, including young dogs of predisposed breeds, working and agility dogs, and older dogs beginning to show stiffness. It is advisable to discuss the use of Synoquin EFA with a veterinary surgeon, especially if a dog is already receiving medication for joint disease or any other condition.
