Direne is a tablet supplement, specifically designed to support the kidney function of dogs and cats. Formulated with natural ingredients that work in synergy, this product promotes the well-being of the urinary tract and helps keep pets' renal metabolism efficient, especially in the presence of conditions that can compromise the normal function of the kidneys. The product is available in a practical format of 40 tablets, ideal for both dogs and cats of all sizes. The palatable structure of the tablets facilitates daily administration, even in difficult-to-treat animals, ensuring regular intake of the active ingredients. Direne is not a veterinary medicine but a complementary food, useful in all those situations in which it is deemed necessary to promote a better water balance, promote urine production and help slow down the functional deterioration of the kidney. It is indicated both in the support of the initial phase of dysfunctions and as an adjuvant in standard veterinary therapies.
The tablets can be administered directly or, if necessary, crumbled and mixed with the animal's usual food. The palatable flavor favors its assimilation even in subjects with reduced appetite.
Therapeutic Indications
Direne is intended to support renal function in cases of renal failure, both acute and chronic, in dogs and cats. The synergistic action of its components promotes the drainage of toxic metabolites which, in the event of impairment of kidney function, tend to accumulate in the blood and tissues. The product also helps relieve symptoms associated with kidney disease such as loss of appetite, vomiting, increased thirst, increased urine production and weight loss. It is indicated both as a support during a therapeutic veterinary diet and as an adjuvant in the pre-diagnostic or maintenance phase, for predisposed elderly animals or with specific needs for renal protection. The continuous use of Direne can help improve the animal's quality of life, reducing the risks associated with relapses and supporting the correct intake of micronutrients useful for the protection of kidney tissues.
The product can also be used as prevention in breeds particularly predisposed to kidney problems, or in subjects who have overcome an acute phase and need to maintain the well-being of the urinary tract in the long term.
Composition
Natural active ingredients: Direne contains an exclusive mix of plant extracts with synergistic and protective action: Polyporus umbellatus, Rehmannia glutinosa, Astragalus membraceus, Lespedeza capitata. Each tablet is formulated to provide a precise and balanced quantity of each active ingredient, capable of supporting the body's natural water balance and promoting a physiological purifying activity of the kidney.
Excipients: Bulking agents, microcrystalline cellulose, natural flavorings to ensure greater palatability of the product, anti-caking agents (magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide). The composition is designed to be well tolerated even by sensitive animals or those with allergic tendencies.
The combination of natural constituents guarantees a protective effect against oxidative damage, helps regulate diuresis and promotes physiological detoxification of the kidney, without burdening the animal's organism. The raw materials are selected for purity and quality, ensuring a high standard of safety and effectiveness.
Contraindications
Do not use Direne in animals with known hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients in the formulation. In case of suspected adverse reaction after administration, immediately discontinue use and consult your veterinary surgeon. Do not administer the product to puppies or kittens under three months of age, unless expressly prescribed by a veterinary surgeon. Concomitant use with other herbal supplements with diuretic action is not recommended, unless otherwise indicated by the veterinarian, to avoid potential excessive diuretic effects or interference between phytocomplexes.
In subjects with end-stage renal failure, the product does not replace specific pharmacological therapies and cannot be considered the only support device. Do not exceed the recommended daily dose. Use during pregnancy and breastfeeding should be evaluated on a case-by-case basis, preferably under medical supervision.
Safety of the drug for the species
Direne has been designed to offer maximum safety for both dogs and cats. The herbal ingredients used are generally considered safe and free of significant side effects at recommended doses. At the indicated doses, no cases of intoxication or serious adverse effects have been reported. The product does not alter the main metabolic functions, nor does it interfere with the digestion of food. However, in particularly sensitive subjects or those already subjected to multiple therapies, veterinary monitoring is always indicated during prolonged administration of the product, so as to be able to adapt the treatment according to the general conditions of the animal.
The risk of interactions with other veterinary drugs is extremely low, but it is always preferable to inform the attending veterinarian of the integration of any phytotherapeutic product into the ongoing therapeutic protocol. The product has no psychotropic or sedative effects.
Precautions
Before starting treatment with Direne, it is recommended to always consult your veterinarian for an assessment of the functional status of the kidneys and to set the best supplementation strategy. It does not replace the prescribed diet or any associated medications in the management of impaired renal function. Store the tablets in a cool, dry place, out of reach of children and other pets.
Do not use the product if the packaging appears damaged or if the tablets show changes in colour, odor or consistency. Always wash your hands thoroughly after handling the product, especially in the case of animals with pathologies that can compromise the immune response. Store the package away from direct light and sources of intense heat. In case of accidental ingestion by people, consult a doctor.
Method of administration
Direne tablets are chewable and can be offered directly to the animal as a snack or crumbled and mixed with the main food, according to the dog or cat's preferences. In general, it is important to follow the dosage suggested by the manufacturer or by the treating veterinarian, depending on the weight and state of health of the animal.
For daily administration, place the tablet on the tongue or insert it into a tasty morsel of food for those who are reluctant to take supplements. Regular intake allows for better effectiveness and consistency of lower renal support, especially in cases of chronic pathology. Do not suddenly stop treatment without veterinary advice.
Treatment program
The treatment program varies depending on the severity and type of the kidney condition. As an indication, for dogs and cats the recommended dose may be administered once or twice a day, preferably divided morning and evening to facilitate the absorption and constant maintenance of blood levels of the active ingredients.
The duration of treatment can be extended to several months, depending on the clinical needs and indications of the veterinary doctor. In chronic subjects, continuous treatment can favor the stabilization of conditions and minimize relapses of renal failure. It is always advisable to combine the use of Direne with a specific diet for kidney pathologies, so as to maximize the effectiveness of the support, and regularly monitor the clinical conditions through blood and urine tests according to veterinary indications.
