Cystaid for Cats

Description Each capsule contains 125 mg N-Acetyl D-Glucosamine (99% purity)

Lower urinary tract disorders affect approximately one percent of the British cat population. A survey shows that the most common causes of FLUTD: Feline Idiopatic Cystitis (FIC) (63%), Cystic calculi/uroliths (14%), Anatomical defects (11%), Behavioural (9%), Neoplasia (2%), Urinary Tract Infection (1%)

Dietary management of FIC through supplementation CYSTAID contains molecules that supplement the bladder’s muco-polysaccharid GAG chains. These chains form a protective mucin layer for the umbrella mucosal cells, preventing epithelial contact with the irritant urinary toxins and pathogens. Supplementation with CYSTAID helps: 1) Replace and maintain a healthy GAG bladder mucosal mucin layer 2) Stimulates increased GAG production by mucosal cells 3) Decreases bladder wall permeability thus reducing bladder wall inflammation. Dietary change: In addition to using CYSTAID, benefits may be seen with increasing the water consumption by changing to moist diet, improving the number and site of litter trays and reducing the stress levels. Dosage Administration: Cystaid can be given whole or sprinkled and mixed with the food. 2 capsules a day during the first two weeks 1 capsule a day for maintenance
