Urinary S/O LP 18

URINARY S/O is a complete dietetic food for dogs formulated to dissolve struvite uroliths and reduce their recurrence through its urine acidifying properties, a low level of magnesium and a restricted level of high quality protein.

Feeding Duration

5 to 12 weeks of dietary treatment are required to dissolve uroliths. If a urinary tract infection is present, Urinary S/O Canine, combined with an antibacterial agent, should be prescribed for at least one month after a negative urine culture result is obtained

Secondary Benefit Struvite Dissolution
Struvite Dissolution

Urinary S/O Canine effectively dissolves struvite uroliths. An acidic urinary pH is unfavourable to the development of bacteria, which are frequently associated with struvite uroliths.

Secondary Benefit Urine Dilution
Urine Dilution

Diluting urine decreases the urinary concentration of struvites and calcium oxalates. The larger urinary volume also ensures regular bladder wash-out.

Secondary Benefit Low RSS
Low RSS

Undersaturated urine is an environment where crystals cannot proliferate. Thus the urine is unfavourable to the development of struvite and calcium oxalate crystals.

Secondary Benefit Low Magnesium
Low Magnesium

Magnesium is a component of struvite (magnesium ammonium phosphate) uroliths.
