SPECIFIC™ Adult Cat FKD Kidney Support, Dry Cat Food With Pork, 2kg

Specific Adult Cat FKD Kidney Support

- Chronic renal failure
- Hepatic insufficiency (except in patients with biliary obstruction)
- Heart failure, increased blood pressure, edema
- Urinary stone disease (urates, oxalates, cystines)

COMPOSITION CHARACTERISTICS AND RATIONALE
Reduced phosphorus is necessary to prevent hyperphosphatemia and slow the progression of renal failure.

Why choose Kidney Support?

• Lower mineral and protein levels to reduce kidney workload combined with proteins of high biological value, providing all of the protein requirements even with the reduced levels.
  

• It contains high level of fish oil to support heart rhythm and blood pressure – this can also support kidney function.
  
• Restricted phosphorus content supports normal blood pressure and slows decline in kidney function.
  
• Lower protein, added potassium citrate and alkaline urine helps to prevent the formation of calcium oxalate, urate or cystine stones.
  
• Packed under nitrogen to preserve the precious and fragile Omega 3 fish oils.

MORE INFORMATION

- The feed has a high content of water-soluble vitamins and potassium to compensate for their excretion in the urine in patients with heart problems treated with diuretics.

- The excellent taste properties of SPECIFIC™ FKD Kidney Support feed create the maximum conditions to meet the patient's nutrient needs even when the patient has a poor appetite.
