Feline l/d®

For the Nutritional Management of Cats with Liver Disorders. Your cat's liver is its largest internal organ and is responsible for ridding the body of toxins and many other functions. Prescription Diet l/d was created by veterinarians specifically for the nutritional management of cats with liver disorders that cause reduced liver function. It is highly digestible, with high quality protein sources that reduce the liver workload and aid in the regeneration of liver tissue. Added antioxidant nutrients like Vitamin E, Vitamin C and selenium, help combat oxidative stress. It is also ideally formulated to deal with cats with fatty liver disease (Hepatic Lipidosis). The nutritional formulation of Prescription Diet® l/d® may also be useful for pets with a variety of conditions.

Daily Feeding Guide

Cover and refrigerate unused portion. These ranges are a starting point only. Your pet may need less or more food to maintain proper weight. Adjust as needed. If you are unsure, ask your veterinarian. With your veterinarian’s approval, mix increasing amounts of your pet’s new food with decreasing amounts of the old food over a 7-day period. Feline l/d is available in canned and dry form. Supplementation with other foods is unnecessary and may decrease the effectiveness of the food. When using with Feline l/d dry, decrease the amount of canned food to avoid overfeeding.
