Vetoquinol Renal K+ (Potassium Gluconate) Potassium Supplement Powder for Dogs and Cats, 3.5oz

There are 16 of us. The child is 5 years old. YORKIE, a 31-year-old woman, was diagnosed with end stage kidney failure in March 2016. The first time I was told, a few days, then a few months after IV. We used a combination of conventional treatment and herbal and botanical supplements, which we later blended. An additional special kidney-friendly diet (made at home), subcutaneous electrolyte fluids, and Epakitin and Azodyl were added, too. In terms of herbal and botanicals, the Canine Kidney Care protocol from Five Leaf Pharmacy, Kidney Support Gold, and crushed stinging nettle seeds were used. She is still living in this house after 14 months. Her seizure lasted between 90 seconds and 90 seconds, and she actually crashed last weekend and vomited, then began to have watery, loose bowel movements and eventually became severely dehydrated. To bring her back up a bit, I gave her 200 mL of electrolyte fluid and then ran to the emergency vet clinic at 4 am. test was actually pretty good, with all kidney assessments being fine, considering what she had gone through. Although she had received an infusion of potassium-containing fluids, her potassium was right at the bottom of the range for the normal range, indicating that she probably had low potassium levels. There is a special caution needed because potassium levels seem to be tricky in late stage chronic kidney failure. They are easy to get out of whack because the body doesn't clear them extensively. intended to give her a bump but also with the knowledge that too much can cause the heart to stop 8 (my goal was to remedy the tiredness and weakness she was experiencing. This is why I chose Renal K+ powder, since I trust the brand and it has vitamins and nutrients in a balanced, concentrated form to make the most of your meal. It comes in a liquid form and a powder form. My first order was the gel, but I later changed my mind due to many factors. I much prefer the powder because it's easier to control dosage, comes with a larger amount of product for the dollar, and was available the next day, not several days later. As soon as I received the product, I noticed it had disclaimers about not being suitable for dogs with end stage kidney disease, so I was extremely cautious. It is recommended that my dog take two scoops a day, depending on its size. Rather than giving a full scoop, I gave her 2/3 of one, dividing it up so that 1/3 was given in the morning and 1/3 in the evening. The mixture can be blended with unsweetened organic applesauce, and she seems to like it. It is my goal to raise her level to the lower mid range of normal levels, but The first night had no improvement, and the same went for After a long day of work, we thought it was probably time to say our final goodbyes. Despite not being in any pain, she was so frail and weak that she looked like a zombie. While I woke up this morning with a broken heart, believing we only had a few more hours with our little companion, I found that when I looked into the special box I had made to keep her safe, I saw her looking back at me with what looked like While her strength and weakness were both better, they were still present. As a few days earlier, she couldn't even start climbing up the ramp to our bed, so it's an incredible feat to have her climb it. Suddenly, she became much more aware and even engaged a little bit with us, nothing spectacular, but enough to confirm that she knew who we were. Due to the very moderate K+ supplementation in the kidney, this could be due to the increased potassium level. Throughout the past week, I have not only addressed this issue but each of her other issues as well. Due to the fact that she still appeared to be fighting, we also fought for her. This is a clear comeback for her. We recommend this product to anyone, but be cautious when giving it to a kidney patient dog, because potassium levels are easy to get too high. Kidneys who are unhealthy cannot regulate the content well, so give a small dose and ease back when symptoms improve and then get the potassium levels checked.

This is one of two that prevented my cat from suffering from stage 4-related sickness. His kidney failure began at age 13, and he died at age 18 due to renal failure. He was diagnosed at age 13 and passed away this year. I am sure he would not have been here so long if it wasn't for Renal K and sub Q fluids. We both appreciate the extra time spent with him and believe this vet will be able to recover One of the major reasons was the product we recommended.

In addition to being unable to walk and close to death, our cat was suffering from renal failure. This is how we found out about Renal K-
powder. I saw a difference after about a week, but what a difference it was. Afterwards we found that he was walking fine he is a bright eyed boy again to our surprise he was even purring. Despite the fact that it is not a cure, he has regained some of his quality of life thanks to it.

A vet gave us the K+ gel, saying cats found it to be "palatable". Based on my research, I found out that "palatable" meant that it was flavored with maple. We love Benny because he is so easy-going He is an easy-going guy who doesn't have a problem pilling, but he dislikes The job I had during the first two weeks had to be given up. This is what I experienced when I tried it. This container comes with an tiny scoop (an eighth of a tbsp. The cat got this powder from me. I mixed it into chicken baby food. This was a big hit with him! Using it twice a day for two days straight has been his daily meals. Brewer's yeast is one of the ingredients, which has a kind of cheesy taste -- I find it to be much more "palatable" for cats. Even though the gel works, if you have a cat, you can give the powder a try instead. It can be mixed into wet food, meat baby food, or a little tuna juice or any other liquid or wet food your cat prefers to eat In the last few weeks that he has been on a supplement, his mood has been brighter. You should note If your pet does not need the supplement, do not give it to them. In addition to high potassium levels, there are other problems associated with it.

One jar I got from Amazon and one from a pet pharmacy, both with the same lot numbers, and the product is definitely not what I was In the old version, there was a faint fishy odor and In the new version (with a slightly different label), the powder has a lot of small brown or tan grains interspersed in it, and it has a nasty sharp odor similar to I have contacted the manufacturer to ask what the deal is, but until then, I will have to give her something else, since even if it's not altered, we will not be able to hide it in cat food like we could with I have a senior cat named Belle who became clumsy almost instantly six months ago. She was walking with her belly almost on the floor and constantly falling over. (There is a funny story behind this. Belle's potassium levels had collapsed dangerously, so I rushed her to the vet. When she was examined, the vet found that Belle had had emergency blood work done. The potassium-containing urine is excreted over a period of time I have started giving her maple-enriched IV fluids after the vet instructed me to do so The syrup is Taking Renal K+ at home in the form of flavored gel twice a day. did not like it at all, but she was too weak to protest much, so that was what I did for the time being. When I ran out of it and she was becoming strong enough to turn it into a nightly battle, I looked for alternatives online. Tumal K was what I used for another cat in the past, but now that substance is really expensive, so I'm using Renal K+ powder I am glad to report it really is odorless and tasteless I can hide the 1 easily since it doesn't have a flavor. There is no limit as to the number of scoops Belle needs in even the smallest amounts of smooth paté cat food and she just views it as a treat.
