URINARY U/C LOW PURINE CANINE For dogs over 1 year old Urathur stones: at least 6 months. In cases of unchanging metabolic disorders, the diet can be fed for life. Cystine urinary stones: initially up to one year. The course of therapy should be monitored through regular check-ups. Note: To ensure the effectiveness of this diet, a prior examination by your veterinarian is essential. Incorrect use may even worsen your pets symptoms. Urant reserve Selected proteins with a low purine content (e.g. wheat flour, egg) in combination with an alkaline urinary pH can help reduce the risk of urinary stones. Cystine screening The composition of URINARY U/C LOW PURINE CANINE helps to prevent the formation of cystine stones. skin barrier The very high levels of biotin, niacin and pantothenic acid, in combination with zinc and linoleic acid, help to reduce fluid loss through the skin and strengthen its barrier effect. Protection through antioxidants A synergistic combination of antioxidants (vitamin E, vitamin C, taurine, lutein) can protect body cells from attacks by aggressive metabolic end products. Indications Adjunctive therapy for leishmaniasis when using xanthine oxidase inhibitors (e.g., allopurinol), maintenance nutrition for adult dogs of certain breeds predisposed to the formation of metabolic urinary stones (e.g., Dalmatians), recurrence prophylaxis of metabolic urinary stones (urate, xanthine, cystine) Counter-argument Pregnancy, lactation, growth up to castration/sterilization, treatment with urinary acidifying drugs Further information Pet owners should feed affected animals exclusively URINARY U/C, otherwise the effectiveness of the product will be limited.
