When the first symptoms of nervous excitement appear due to heat, moving or another stress factor, it is recommended to give the pet a sedative, preferably on a natural basis. These include the drug Kot Bayun, which helps correct behavioral disorders in cats and dogs. It helps to calm the animal, eliminate anxiety, and relieve spasms.
Let's find out what components contain different dosage forms of the drug Kot Bayun, and also study the features of its use.
Instructions for use
Depending on the form of release, cats need to be given tablets in a certain dosage. Each package contains paper instructions that indicate doses, indications and contraindications. It is better to consult a veterinarian before treatment.
Drops
The drops are a herbal decoction that smells pleasant even to such picky pets as cats. The medicine is available in glass containers, and a special pipette is attached to it to maintain the dosage. The decoction includes 17 herbs, and the most effective of them are considered:
- oregano;
- valerian;
- Melissa;
- mint;
- hop cones;
- thyme;
- hawthorn;
- St. John's wort;
- nettle, etc.
If desired, you can give drops to your cat from a teaspoon, but most often a pipette is used.
How to use drops:
- The rubber plug must be removed and replaced with a dropper cap.
- Measure out the required dosage.
- Open the cat's mouth and, lightly pressing the pipette, let the liquid fall onto the tongue.
- Make sure your pet swallows the medicine.
The dosage recommended for adult cats is usually 2 ml at a time, and it is recommended to give drops 3-4 times a day. The duration of treatment usually does not exceed a week.
It is best to store the medicine in the refrigerator. But, in order not to give the cat a cold tincture, it is better to slightly warm the solution before the next use.
Pills
Giving a cat a tablet is always more difficult than giving drops, but this form of medication is considered more effective and is most often used by animal owners.
However, it is considered acceptable to crush the tablet and dilute it in a small amount of water, and then give it from a pipette or teaspoon. The recommended dose at one time is 2 tablets, and they should be given to the cat 3-4 times a day. The course of treatment, like the tincture, should be 5-7 days, but can be changed by the veterinarian.

Infusion
It is a herbal decoction contained in a small 10 ml bottle. It has a mild sedative effect and saturates the animal’s body with useful substances.

The drug in drops
The medicine is a liquid infusion of yellowish or brownish color with a light herbal aroma. During storage, a small sediment may form, which is easily mixed by shaking the bottle with “Cat Bayun” drops. The instructions inform you that the medicine is packaged in glass bottles with a capacity of 10 or 16 ml. One cardboard package contains a dispenser cap, instructions and two bottles of 16 ml or three of 10 ml.
All bottles must be marked with the following data: name, quantity, storage conditions, date of manufacture, series and batch number, expiration date. They must also have the following signatures: “The raw materials have passed radiobiological control”, “Sterile”, “For animals”, a bar code, a specification designation and a quality mark. This is what the original medicine “Cat Bayun” looks like. Customer reviews confirm the presence of counterfeits on the veterinary market. Bought at one pharmacy, it helps remarkably in solving problems with the animal’s psyche, but bought at another, it does not give any effect. You should be vigilant and buy from trusted retail outlets.
Storage conditions
Tablets and tincture are stored closed in original containers. After removing the aluminum cap from the bottle, Kot Bayun drops are placed in the refrigerator on the bottom shelf, since there are no preservatives in the composition.

It is not recommended to place the drug together with food, cat food, household goods, or in places accessible to small children.
During long-term storage of the liquid preparation, sedimentation may occur. It is eliminated by gentle shaking. In this case, the solution becomes slightly cloudy. This circumstance does not serve as a sign of poor quality and does not affect the intake of drops.
The shelf life of the medicine is one year. After this period, the drug must be disposed of.
Contraindications and side effects
The drug should not be given to kittens under 10 months of age.
Many owners are interested in whether “Cat Bayun” is suitable for cats during pregnancy. No harmful effects on the offspring have been noted, but if your pet is simultaneously being treated for some disease or the pregnancy is difficult, you should definitely consult a veterinarian before using the product.
No overdose symptoms were identified.
Side effects are rare and only in cases of individual intolerance to one of the components of the drug. In case of an allergy, stop using the product, and after consultation with a veterinarian, symptomatic treatment is prescribed.
"Cat Bayun" has proven itself to be an effective and safe remedy for most animals. However, do not forget that a sudden change in your pet’s behavior may be a symptom of a dangerous disease, and in this case, consultation with a veterinarian is still necessary.
Owner reviews
Larisa, owner of several cats:
“New animals often appear in our house. To make friends with each other, I use a herbal infusion. Pets drink it themselves. The drug helps reduce aggression, but there is no drowsiness or other side effects. There are always several bottles of Kota Bayun in my house.”
Marina, owner of a mongrel cat:
“There was a cat at the dacha. She lived with us all summer. When we moved to the city, we took it with us to our apartment. For Margot this turned out to be very stressful. She became restless and aggressive. The veterinarian recommended Kot Bayun. After 3 days, the behavior returned to normal, and the cat began to allow itself to be stroked and picked up.”
About the drug composition, release form, action
The use of medications is justified in stressful conditions for the cat. "Cat Bayun" reduces the risk of anxiety and excessive excitability.

Indications for use
When is the medication prescribed:
- if there is stress in the pet, which can occur during contact with the veterinarian, animals, during moving to a new territory, etc.;
- if the cat has fear, and the pet looks hunted;
- when a pet behaves aggressively, attacks animals and people;

How it works and when it is indicated for use
The composition of the drug Kot Bayun is based on natural plant components. They have a gentle effect on the animal’s body and do not have a negative impact on the functioning of internal organs and systems. The components have the following effect:
- calm the nervous system;
- relieve fear and nervousness;
- help correct behavior;
- relieve spasms.
The medicine does not have a mutagenic effect and does not interfere with the normal development of offspring.
Cat Bayun is necessary for cats in the following cases:
- Fear of something. Fear can be caused by noisy devices, such as a vacuum cleaner, car rides and other phenomena. It can manifest itself in different ways. Some cats hide and refuse to make contact, others close themselves off, and still others behave aggressively towards members of the household (they can scratch and throw themselves).
- Stressful situations. They usually occur when going to the veterinarian, having guests, having animals in the house, visiting exhibitions or crowded places. The animal feels uncomfortable, which is why its behavior changes (it shuts down, refuses to play, shows aggression, and so on).
- Aggression. Sometimes aggression manifests itself in an animal due to its natural origin. Cats are predatory animals. The hunting instinct can arise in them even for no apparent reason.
- Change in behavior caused by sexual estrus. Without a partner, the animal may scream loudly, mark territory, imitate sexual intercourse, or become overly excitable in other ways.
- Hyperactivity and changes in natural behavior. If pathological changes are noted in behavior, for example, eating feces, excessive licking, measures should be taken immediately.
Taking the drug allows you to normalize the behavior and mental state of the animal, avoid damage to furniture and other property, and ensure a calm environment in the house. The phytocomplex will help the animal more easily survive stressful situations caused by events that are unusual for it.
