Animals cannot produce the necessary amino acid L-lysine, hence humans must take supplements to make up for any shortages.

In cats and kittens, L-lysine supplementation is said to lessen FHV-1 virus symptoms.

In a research on feline respiratory disorders conducted in Australia, 21.2% of cats tested positive for FHV-1.

Published studies on the administration of L-lysine to cats and kittens:

• When compared to cats receiving a placebo, oral dose of 500 mg L-lysine twice day was well tolerated and led to less severe FHV-1 conjunctivitis symptoms.
• Using 250 mg of L-lysine twice a day decreased viral shedding. Although controlled trials are lacking, it is thought that this amount of L-lysine helps FHV-1 patients with their chronic and recurrent clinical symptoms.
• L-lysine 500 mg should be taken orally for 12 hours to treat FHV-1 symptoms.

Active constituent:

• An oral supplement called lysine paste for cats and kittens has 250 mg/ml of L-lysine HCL.

Lysine for cats and kittens:

• The immune system and the development and maintenance of bodily processes depend on the amino acid L-lysine. It must be included in foods or taken as a supplement because animals cannot synthesise it. It's crucial to add information about respiratory and FHV-1 symptoms in cats and kittens.

Directions for Use:

• L-lysine is a tasty oral supplement for cats and kittens that contains 250 mg/mL per mL. The suspension can be put straight into the mouth, on food, or on the paw, where it can be licked off. Give twice daily, or as your veterinarian instructs.

SIZE:

100 mL tube

Squeeze the tube gently to dispense a 2 cm strip of paste approximately equivalent to 1 mL of product. After each use cap the tube to preserve the paste and prevent contamination.
