Veterinary diets are formulated for the nutritional support of dogs with specific clinical conditions and are recommended to be used under veterinary advice.Royal Canin Urinary Low Purine is for the nutritional management of recurrent metabolic uroliths (urante, xanthine or cystine), maintenance diet (particularly indicated in breeds with a high risk of metabolic uroliths, e.g. Dalmatians) and support for dogs with leishmaniasis undergoing treatment with xanthine oxidase inhibitors (e.g. allopurinol). Low purine proteins (e.g. wheat flour and egg) combined with production of alkaline urine lead to a reduced risk or urate stones. A combination of moderate quantities of high quality proteins and restricted sodium levels contributes to reducing the formation of cystine stones. High levels of biotin, niacin and pantothenic acid, combined with the zinc-linoleic acid complex, reduce transepidermal water loss and improve the skin’s barrier function. The synergistic antioxidant complex (vitamin E, vitamin C, taurine, lutein) helps maintain healthy DNA, promotes health of the immune system and neutralises free radicals, the negative effects of which increase with age.
