Bock Vet Pharma

Bock Vet Pharma is an independent pharmaceutical company based in Saint Louis, Missouri, specializing in companion animal products. The company develops, manufactures, markets, and distributes products designed to improve compliance and strengthen the human-animal bond. Bock Vet Pharma focuses on providing solutions to common health issues affecting pets using innovative technology. Their product lines, branded as "Compliance Made Easy," include nutritional supplements and medications formulated to be safe, effective, and easy to administer to dogs and cats.

The company's inception in 2008 was inspired by a St. Louis veterinarian's encounter with a client struggling to medicate their Himalayan cat, Jasmine. Utilizing patented technology to mask disagreeable flavors and improve palatability, Bock Vet Pharma created specially flavored easy chews that pets enjoy taking. This approach aims to transform medication administration from a struggle into a treat-like experience for pets, thereby maintaining the quality of the human-animal relationship during treatment periods.

Bock Vet Pharma has received recognition for its innovative products. The American Veterinary Medical Association presented the company with the Best New Product award for Capilex in 2011 and for Deter-X in 2012. These accolades underscore the company's commitment to developing effective solutions for pet healthcare needs.
