Dechra has launched new SPECIFIC Heart & Kidney Support Hydrolysed dry diets and updated its formula for Specific Heart & Kidney Support wet and dry diets, giving veterinary teams another diet option for dogs and cats with kidney disease.

The new formula featured in both diets offers superior palatability and works in a multi-action way with support of the gut-kidney axis to help optimise protein absorption and maintenance of muscle mass, gut barrier integrity and a healthy microbiome, while lowering uremic toxins in the blood.

With both diets controlling levels of protein, phosphorus and sodium and offering uniquely high levels of the Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA, SPECIFIC Heart & Kidney Support Hydrolysed diet contains highly digestible and hypoallergenic hydrolysed proteins and AuraGuard to further support gut barrier integrity. The Hydrolysed diet also features beneficial fibres to support a healthy gut and Zeolite to help reduce toxic urea build up.

“Chronic kidney disease is a lifelong progressive disease in dogs and cats, and nutrition is an important part of management to help slow disease progression, improve quality of life and reduce the risk of secondary complications,” says Callum Watkins, brand manager at Dechra. “Our new and updated highly palatable SPECIFIC Heart & Kidney Support diets will help keep dogs and cats in good condition, prolonging the progression of the disease and the lifespan of the pet.”
