From Dolittler, Dolittler’s back on the Xylitol attack! (the Rescue Remedy and Tic-Tac edition) :
....newest loser product to adopt Xylitol: Rescue Remedy.
You heard that right. This bach flower extract-containing product we often recommend to soothe our dogs’ high-strung souls has succumbed to the Xylitol dogpile. No longer can I safely recommend Rescue Remedy now that its pastilles contain the ingredient. Though its other products have reportedly not yet been tainted by this sweetener’s potentially dog-toxic effects, I can no longer trust the manufacturer to keep its products Xylitol free without fair warning....
Personally I only use the drops - but this is SUPER scary. Please be aware!

crap! that's scary!
I know - I can just imagine people thinking the pastilles are easier than the drops.
OK, forgive me for sounding ignorant--but isn't Rescue Remedy specifically for animals? and if so, why would they put in an ingredient that is toxic to said animals?? Seriously, am I missing something?
No, Rescue Remedy was originally designed for use with people. But all flower essences can be used for animals. The pastilles are lozenges/mints for those high strung people who want to take RR on the DL. The fear is that people might see the pastilles as an easy way to give RR to dogs. Of course, the liquid RR is still okay.
