Royal Canin Vet Urinary U/C Canine Veterinary Dog Food | 2 Kg

The low purine protein content (e.g. wheat flour and eggs), associated with the production of alkaline urine, helps to reduce the risk of urate stones.

The combination of moderate, high-quality protein levels and reduced sodium levels contributes to a decrease in cystine stone formation.

The high levels of biotin, niacin and pantothenic acid, combined with the zinc-linoleic acid complex, help reduce transepidermal water loss and strengthen the skin's barrier function.

The synergistic complex of antioxidants (vitamins E and C, taurine, lutein) prevents the degradation of cellular DNA, strengthens the immune system and neutralizes free radicals whose negative effects increase with ageing.

Royal Canin Urinary Low U/C VVC 18 is indicated for: prevention of recurrence of urate, xanthine and cystine uroliths, support food for dogs with Leishmaniasis and treated with xanthine oxidase inhibitors (e.g. allopurinol), maintenance diet for adult dogs, particularly indicated in breeds with a high risk of metabolic stone formation.

Contraindications: pregnancy, lactation, growth, treatment with urine acidifiers.

Administration period: The duration of nutritional therapy depends on the cause of the condition. In the case of urate stones, the food should be prescribed for a minimum period of 6 months.

In the case of cystine stones, Urinary U/C Low Purine can be prescribed as the first treatment measure for 1 year.
