ROYAL CANIN FELINE URINARY S/O MODERATE CALORIE DRY FOOD
Veterinary diets are formulated for the nutritional support of cats with specific clinical conditions and are recommended to be used under veterinary advice. For more information on feeding Urinary Moderate Calorie to your cat, please consult your veterinary surgeon.
Royal Canin Urinary S/O Moderate Calorie is for the nutritional support of cats in cases of:
- Dissolution of struvite uroliths
- Reduction of recurrent struvite and calcium oxalate urolithiasis using a single diet.
Note: In cases of recurrent idiopathic cystitis, Urinary Wet is recommended. In older cats, renal function should be checked before Urinary S/O Moderate Calorie is fed.
Not recommended in cases of:
- Pregnancy, lactation, growth
- Chronic renal failure, metabolic acidosis
- Heart failure
- Hypertension
- Use of urine-acidifying drugs
Royal Canin Urinary S/O Feline effectively dissolves struvite stones.
Diluting urine decreases the urinary concentration of struvites and calcium oxalates. The larger urinary volume also ensures regular bladder wash-out.
The reduced calorie content of the diet makes it possible to limit weight gain in cats with a tendency to obesity.
Glycosaminoglycans (GAG) that are naturally found on the healthy bladder mucosa but decrease in diopathic cystitis. This causes increased permeability of the bladder to bacteria, toxins and ions, resulting in bladder inflammation and stimulation of pain-sensitive receptors.
