Multiva Active Defense Cats

Multiva Active Defense Cats is a supplement specifically formulated to support the immune system of cats of all ages. Thanks to its combination of active ingredients, this product promotes the body's natural resistance to external attacks, helping the cat to stay healthy throughout the year, especially in periods of increased stress or seasonal change. The formulation, in practical, palatable tablets, has been designed to be appreciated even by the most demanding cats, thus facilitating daily administration. Regular use of Multiva Active Defense Cats helps strengthen the immune system, promote general well-being and prevent frequent illnesses due to a weakened or incompletely efficient immune system. It can be used as a support in cases of convalescence, environmental changes, vaccinations, stress, exposure to crowded situations such as farms or boarding houses, and during the post-operative period to promote faster physical and immune recovery.

The formulation is enriched with a mixture of nutrients selected to offer specific support: among these, we find nucleotides, lysine, beta-glucans and essential vitamins. These elements interact synergistically with each other to strengthen the cat's natural immune barrier, improve the immune response at various levels and promote better vitality. The addition of highly bioavailable substances ensures that the cat's body can quickly and effectively use the active ingredients contained in the tablets.

Multiva Active Defense Cats therefore represents a valid ally for all owners who wish to offer their felines additional protection, without sacrificing ease of use and a composition that pays attention to animal health and well-being. Tolerability is excellent, even in the case of prolonged administration, and the product can be administered both alone and in association with the usual diet. Its effectiveness can be seen already after a few weeks of constant administration, with an increase in vitality, immune response and resistance to stress. 

Therapeutic Indications

Multiva Active Defense Cats is indicated as a specific support for the strengthening and correct functioning of the immune system in cats of all ages, from the first weeks of life to elderly cats. Its administration is recommended in cases where the cat is subjected to periods of particular physical or environmental stress, for example during a convalescence phase, or when it is necessary to stimulate the natural defenses during seasonal changes, vaccinations, transfers, the presence of other animals, or when greater exposure to pathogens is expected. It is also particularly useful in debilitated subjects, subjected to antibiotic treatments or prolonged pharmacological treatments, as it helps to compensate for oxidative stress and the potential reduction in immune function caused by these situations.

The supplement can also be used as a support for growing puppies, to promote the correct development of the immune system and increase the response capacity against environmental microorganisms. In adult and elderly cats, Multiva Active Defense Gatti helps to prevent the physiological weakening of the immune defenses, keeping the animal more active and resistant. Thanks to its components, it rebalances the immune profile and is of valid help both in prevention and in the recovery of optimal levels of well-being. It is recommended to use the product in all circumstances in which you want to strengthen the natural immune response, helping to maintain high resistance to viral, bacterial or fungal infections and facilitating the body's prompt recovery following debilitating diseases.

Multiva Active Defense Cats therefore finds application both as a preventive supplement and as an adjuvant in the treatment of pathologies that involve a reduction of natural defenses or greater exposure to stress. Regular supplementation allows you to support the physiological functioning of the feline organism and promote a better quality of life at all ages and conditions.

Composition

Active ingredients: Nucleotides, Lysine, Beta-glucans, Vitamin E, Vitamin C, Zinc, Manganese and other micronutrients specific for immunity. Nucleotides work by promoting the production and repair of immune cells, essential for defense against external agents. Lysine, a fundamental amino acid, has proven particularly useful in the control and prevention of viral infections in cats, particularly against feline herpesvirus, reducing the frequency and intensity of symptomatic relapses. Beta-glucans, polysaccharides extracted from yeasts, strengthen the immune defenses, improving the body's response to infectious stimuli thanks to their action of modulating the innate immune response.

Vitamins: Vitamin E and vitamin C, two powerful natural antioxidants, protect immune cells from damage induced by free radicals, increasing the ability to react to external aggressions. The minerals contained, such as zinc and manganese, are essential for numerous immune enzymatic processes: zinc, in particular, is essential for the synthesis and maintenance of T immune cells and for the correct functioning of skin and mucous barriers.

Excipients: The excipients are selected to guarantee high palatability, absence of common allergens and maximum bioavailability of the active ingredients. Some of them include selected protein flours, natural oils with a low risk of allergenicity, meat or fish flavors safe for feline use, natural preservatives, antioxidant agents and supports that guarantee stability and integrity of the active ingredients over time. The composition, free of unnecessary dyes and additives, is designed to offer maximum safety of use even in the most sensitive subjects.

Contraindications

Do not use Multiva Active Defense Cats in animals with known hypersensitivity or allergy to any of the components reported in the composition. In case of adverse reactions such as itching, vomiting, persistent diarrhea or suspicious behavioral changes observed after administration of the product, discontinue use immediately and consult your veterinarian. Despite being a product well tolerated by the vast majority of subjects, it is advisable not to administer the supplement to cats suffering from serious metabolic pathologies or undergoing pharmacological treatments that cause known interactions with one or more active ingredients. 

The simultaneous intake of other supplements or drugs containing high quantities of lysine, zinc, vitamin C or beta-glucans must be carefully evaluated and only following the advice of the veterinarian to avoid episodes of overdose or interference between active ingredients. The safety of use in pregnant or breastfeeding cats has not been fully evaluated: its use is therefore not recommended unless expressly prescribed or veterinary supervision. In general, avoid administration in cats weighing less than the recommended range on the label, in nursing kittens or in severely debilitated cats without prior professional evaluation.

There is insufficient information available on concomitant use with immunosuppressive or immunomodulatory therapies: in such cases, always seek advice from a veterinary surgeon. Do not use in case of an exclusive diet prescribed for clinical reasons (for example renal, hepatic, metabolic pathologies), unless after professional consultation.

Safety of the drug for the species

The safety of Multiva Active Defense Cats was evaluated on a large sample of healthy subjects, proving to be high and without systematic side effects at recommended dosages. The ingredients are chosen and balanced to be compatible with feline physiology, and the risk of accumulation is reduced thanks to the presence of vitamins and minerals in physiological, non-toxic doses. The studies carried out indicate that regular long-term administration does not cause significant alterations in hepatic, renal or gastrointestinal function, being tolerated even in adult or elderly cats.

However, it is important to always respect the indicated dosage, without spontaneously increasing the quantities, in order to avoid overdoses or micronutrient imbalances. Optimal palatability limits the risk of rejection, but in case of suspected accidental overdose (e.g. multiple ingestion), monitor the animal and inform the veterinarian. There are no known serious side effects when administered to healthy subjects as directed; in rare cases, mild gastrointestinal disorders may occur, such as loose stools or a temporary decrease in appetite, which generally resolve spontaneously with temporary suspension of the product.

In subjects with pre-existing pathologies, the safety of use must be established from time to time by the treating veterinarian. In any case, avoid concomitant administration with drugs or foods that may influence the absorption or bioavailability of the active ingredients contained in the supplement.

Precautions

Store Multiva Active Defense Cats in a cool, dry place, away from sources of heat, humidity and direct light. Keep out of reach of children and pets not receiving treatment. To ensure maximum effectiveness, do not store the tablets open to the air for prolonged periods and carefully close the package after each use. Wash hands after administration. In the case of animals with particular chronic pathologies or undergoing other therapies, always consult the veterinarian before use.

Check the expiry date shown on the packaging and do not use the product once it has passed. Administer exclusively to the indicated species; avoid use in other domestic or wild animals, unless otherwise advised by a veterinary surgeon. If any side effects occur, discontinue immediately and report the event to your veterinarian. Do not administer together with other similar products containing the same active ingredients, unless expressly recommended.

Particular attention is recommended in the case of animals suffering from known food allergies, to verify the compatibility of all the ingredients of the formulation with the current diet. Safety in puppies younger than 8 weeks has not been fully evaluated. Use under the direct supervision of an adult, to avoid accidental ingestion by other animals or children.

Method of administration

Multiva Active Defense Cats comes in the form of palatable chewable tablets, easily divisible according to the weight and age of the animal. Administration can take place either directly in the mouth or mixed with normal food, if necessary disguising the tablet with a snack or morsel preferred by the cat to facilitate its intake in more selective subjects. It is recommended to follow the dosage indicated on the label or by the veterinarian: for cats weighing less than 5 kg, half a tablet per day is generally recommended; for cats over 5 kg, one whole tablet per day, unless otherwise indicated by the veterinarian.

For optimal immune support action, it is recommended to continue administration regularly for at least 30 consecutive days and, if necessary, even longer based on the subject's clinical condition and professional judgment. In case of accidental discontinuation, resume as soon as possible without the need to double the dose. The tablets should preferably be administered at the same time each day to promote compliance and effectiveness. In the case of animals that are particularly wary or have difficulty with oral intake, it may be useful to crumble the tablet and mix it with a small quantity of highly palatable wet food.

Treatment program

The treatment program with Multiva Active Defense Cats varies depending on the set objective and the general condition of the animal. Generally speaking, for preventive immune support we recommend continuous administration of the product for periods of 30-60 days, repeating the cycle in the most critical periods of the year or on a seasonal basis (for example during seasonal changes, in the colder months or in case of increased risk of infections). In subjects subjected to greater stress, such as convalescing cats, elderly subjects or growing puppies, it is possible to opt for a longer maintenance treatment or administration cycles interspersed with short breaks, based on the clinical response and any veterinary evaluation.

For healthy adult cats, a 1-2 month cycle is usually sufficient to restore and maintain the full efficiency of natural defenses, while in cases of post-illness recovery, environmental changes or exposure to new subjects, the cycle can be extended at the discretion of the veterinarian. Regularity in treatment is essential to obtain maximum benefit: avoid unmotivated interruptions and always follow the specific instructions based on the cat's profile.

Prolonged use does not involve risks of addiction or decline in effectiveness, but it is recommended to monitor the general state of the animal during use and to periodically re-evaluate the need to continue the supplementation cycle.
