Key Benefits & Ingredients
The supplement contains five specific ingredients that address four vital areas of kidney health:
- Phosphate Binding: Calcium carbonate and magnesium carbonate bind to phosphorus in the intestines, preventing it from building up in the body—a common issue in pets with kidney failure.
- Toxin Removal: Chitosan binds to uremic toxins (waste products) in the gut, making them easier for the body to eliminate and reducing strain on the kidneys.
- Blood Pressure Support: Marine oligopeptides (fish protein hydrolysate) help maintain balanced blood pressure, which is critical for protecting remaining kidney function.
- Kidney Architecture: Polysaccharides of Astragalus help maintain the normal structure of the kidneys.
Precautions & Side Effects
- Veterinary Consultation: Always consult a veterinarian before use, especially for older animals or those with existing digestive sensitivities.
- Regurgitation: If your pet vomits or regurgitates the product, consult your veterinarian.
- Not a Cure: Pronefra is a supplement designed to help manage Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and support quality of life, not a cure.
Usage & Administration Guidelines
- Please consult with a veterinarian regarding the appropriate use for your pet.
- Pronefra is typically administered with or near meals, and it can be mixed with food or given directly into the mouth using the provided graduated syringe.
Important Administration Steps
- Shake vigorously before every use; slight sedimentation is normal.
- Use the syringe to measure the amount based on your pet's weight, as directed by a veterinarian.
- Ensure your pet has plenty of drinking water available at all times.
- Shelf Life: Once opened, adhere to the manufacturer's recommended usage period, typically 2 months for the 60ml bottle and 6 months for the 180ml.
