Description

PRO-VET STRUVITE has been developed for adult cats with struvite urolithiasis. PRO-VET STRUVITE will dissolve crystals and stones in the urinary bladder and it will prevent recurrence of symptoms.
PRO-VET STRUVITE provides sufficient nutrients to maintain the body. The development of crystals and stones containing struvite in the urinary bladder is a common condition by cats. Struvite crystals and stones may cause obstruction of the urethra so that the cat cannot urinate properly. Urination will be painful and the accumulation of metabolic waste products in the body may lead to coma and death. In about 10% of the cats presented to veterinarians, there is urinary tract disease caused by struvite. Nutrition plays a major role in the treatment of cats with struvite. Dietary management aims at reducing the urinary concentrations of the components of struvite (magnesium, ammonium, phosphate) and lowering the urinary pH so that struvite dissolves and so that new crystals cannot be formed.

Dissolution of existing struvite crystals and stones in the urinary bladder and prevention of the formation of struvite is only possible by a low urinary pH and low concentrations of the struvite components. PRO-VET STRUVITE consists of magnesium, ammonium and phosphate and either dissolves or does not form at a urinary pH lower than 6.5. PRO-VET STRUVITE contains an appropriate amount of urine acidifier so that the average urinary pH will be 6.3. This pH has anti-struvite activity and does not entail the risk of acidosis. The low levels of magnesium, phosphate and protein further stimulate dissolution of struvite and inhibit its formation. Thus, PRO-VET STRUVITE can be used by patients with non-obstructive struvite urolithiasis as well as by patients sensitive to recurrence of struvite formation. On the basis of literature data (Osborne et al., 1990; Houston et al., 2004) and the ideal composition of PRO-VET STRUVITE, the anticipated time required for complete dissolution of struvite in the urinary bladder on average is 4 weeks.
