Therapeutic Indications

Hills Prescription Diet K/D Tuna is indicated for nutritional support in dogs suffering from chronic renal failure, both in the early and advanced stages. It helps improve kidney function and slow the progression of the disease by reducing the workload on the kidneys. It is also indicated for the treatment of conditions associated with heart failure, hypertension and other conditions that affect kidney function.

The food is formulated to manage uremic nitrogen and phosphorus levels, helping to minimize toxicity symptoms and improve your dog's overall well-being. It can be used as part of an integrated therapeutic program, in combination with specific veterinary care, to offer your pet a better quality of life.*/

The diet is also particularly useful in the case of acute or chronic kidney diseases, such as nephropathies of various origins, as it limits the accumulation of harmful waste and supports the hydrosaline balance. Furthermore, it helps maintain correct blood pressure and reduce the risk of complications associated with kidney failure.

Composition

Active Ingredients and Key Nutrients: Hills Prescription Diet K/D Tuna is formulated with selected high quality ingredients, including low protein content but high biological value, to reduce renal stress without compromising protein needs.

Contains an optimal balance of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids, known for their anti-inflammatory properties and support of cardiovascular and renal function. The presence of antioxidants helps reduce oxidative stress, often associated with tissue damage in cases of renal failure.

The formula also includes essential vitamins and minerals, with a controlled content of phosphorus and sodium to prevent the worsening of kidney disease and maintain electrolyte balance. Tuna, a source of noble proteins and a pleasant flavour, guarantees good palatability and the dog's adherence to the therapeutic diet.
