Glacier Peak Holistics HerbAprin is an herbal blend formulated to provide relief from pain and inflammation in dogs, targeting discomfort from injuries, joint issues, and chronic conditions. The combination of herbs works synergistically to reduce pain, alleviate tension, and promote relaxation. This blend can be particularly beneficial for dogs suffering from arthritis, muscle soreness, or post-surgical discomfort.
The active compounds in the herbal ingredients work by inhibiting pain pathways and reducing inflammation in a natural manner. Several of the ingredients target the prostaglandin synthesis pathway, which is a key process in the body's inflammatory response, while others calm the nervous system to reduce stress and tension related to pain.
Ingredients
White Willow Bark – Often referred to as "nature's aspirin," white willow bark contains salicin, which the body converts into salicylic acid. This compound reduces inflammation and relieves pain, particularly in joints and muscles. It acts by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, which are responsible for the pain and inflammation sensation.
Feverfew Herb – Feverfew has been used traditionally for its anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties. The active compound parthenolide helps reduce the production of inflammatory markers and can be effective in reducing chronic pain, especially in conditions like arthritis.
Skullcap Herb – Skullcap has calming and anti-spasmodic properties that help ease tension and pain in the muscles and nerves. It is particularly effective in soothing pain from nervous system disorders and muscle spasms, as it works by reducing the excitability of nerve cells.
Valerian Root – Valerian is well-known for its sedative effects, which can help reduce the sensation of pain by relaxing the nervous system and muscles. It also helps to lower anxiety and stress, which can exacerbate pain levels, providing a sense of calm to dogs experiencing discomfort.
Chamomile Flower – Chamomile has anti-inflammatory, antispasmodic, and calming properties. It helps relieve pain by reducing muscle spasms and inflammation. Its ability to soothe the digestive and nervous systems also makes it beneficial for dogs experiencing pain-related stress.
Passion Flower – Passionflower acts as a mild sedative and relaxant, helping to reduce nerve-related pain and stress. It works by increasing levels of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) in the brain, which slows down nerve activity and provides a calming effect.
Rosemary – Rosemary contains antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds that reduce oxidative stress and inflammation in the body. It has been used to ease muscle pain and improve circulation, which can help in reducing the discomfort caused by inflammation and injury.
Capsicum (Cayenne Pepper) – Capsicum contains capsaicin, a compound that provides a warming sensation and works as a natural pain reliever. Capsaicin depletes the substance P neurotransmitter, which is responsible for transmitting pain signals to the brain. By reducing substance P levels, it diminishes the perception of pain.
Glacier Peak Holistics HerbAprin harnesses the power of these natural herbs to provide safe, effective relief for dogs experiencing pain and inflammation.

This was a must have for my arthritic girl. I noticed a huge improvement when it was given. She would sleep comfortably through the night. I’ve used both the powder and tincture. Can’t go wrong with either.
