| KEY CHARACTERISTICS3 | KEY BENEFITS | |
|---|---|---|
| Magnesium Phosphorus Calcium | Reduced | Helps reduce the urinary concentration of struvite constituents (magnesium and phosphate) and calcium oxalate. |
| Sodium | Controlled | Helps maintain proper kidney function. |
| Citrate | Added | Forms insoluble complexes with calcium to inhibit the formation of calcium oxalates. |
| Urinary pH | Acidic: 6.2-6.4 | Limits the formation and aggregation of struvite crystals, without promoting the formation of calcium crystals. |
| Water | Increased in pouches and canned formulations | Increases urine volume, diluting urolith constituents to help limit recurrence of idiopathic FLUTD. |
| Formulations | 5 (2 in pouch, 1 in can and 2 dry) | Increases choice to stimulate acceptance. |
| Vitamin E Beta-carotene | Added | Helps neutralise free radicals to counteract urolithiasis. |
