Abstract
Blind placebo-controlled study of the antistress drug Anoten was conducted on 32 stressed shelter cats. Animals were divided into 2 groups based on the emotional and mental status.

Results of the Blind Placebo-Controlled Trial of the Novel Anti-Stress Drug Anoten Efficacy against Neurotic Disorders in Dogs
Abstract
The blind placebo controlled trial was conducted in 20 dogs with signs of neurotic disorders to confirm the efficacy and safety of the anti-stress and antianxiety drug Anoten. Clinical and emotional-psychological state of animals was recorded every day during the 14 days.

Differences between groups were statistically significant. Clinical scores of animals were similar in Anoten and placebo groups, which proves the drug’s tolerance and safety.
