Dry Dog Food Royal Canin Hepatic 1.5 kg — Adult, Veterinary Dietetic Feed for Liver Disease, Gluten-Free, Meat Flavor

Royal Canin Hepatic 1.5 kg Adult Maize Rice Antioxidants is a veterinary diet for adult dogs formulated to support liver function in conditions such as chronic hepatitis, portosystemic shunt, hepatic encephalopathy and disorders of copper metabolism. The formula is based on maize and rice and provides concentrated energy while addressing specific nutritional factors that affect hepatic health.

Advantages

The diet contains highly digestible vegetable protein (soy protein isolate) which is better tolerated in dogs with hepatic encephalopathy. It has a reduced copper content together with increased zinc to help minimise intracellular copper accumulation and reduce hepatocellular injury. A synergistic antioxidant complex is included to slow hepatocyte degradation. High energy density from fats helps prevent protein catabolism and loss of body condition often seen in hepatic patients.

Suitable for

• Adult dogs with chronic hepatitis
• Dogs with portosystemic shunt
• Dogs with hepatic encephalopathy
• Dogs with disorders of copper metabolism
