High Quality Phosphorus Binder
This product seems to be helping my little chi’s kidneys & he’s gaining weight & happier. It doesn’t have a taste so my dog doesn’t notice it in his wet food. I can’t smell it & neither does my dog. It’s a fine powder & dissolves in his food. I definitely recommend it. It’s more expensive than other phos binders but it’s not made w aluminum!

Gave me more time with my tortoise kitty
Back in Sept of 2021 I found this through some internet research because my vet at the time had no real alternatives other than changing to specific food but she wouldn't even sniff that stuff. She hadn't eaten in somewhere around a week and was only drinking water. The day before this and the azodyl showed up she wasn't even drinking water.So I got one of those oral syringes and gave her basically a tablespoon or so of water roughly every hour. And thankfully my intuition paid off. By the end of the day she was drinking water on her own again.After giving her this product combined with azodyl for 2 or 3 days she started eating again.Because of the illness she had become such a picky eater that I ended up using the mouth syringe option mixing it with water twice a day with her wrapped in a towel.This stuff worked absolutely great for her. The only trouble was that she was more suspectable to infections that her body couldn't fight off because of the kidney disease. I put her in the hospital one time. And she came out fine. That was the only hospital stay I could afford though. But we somehow got more connected and close the last 6 months before her next infection than we had in the past years and I am so glad I did it because it was the best and we loved each other more than ever. She was about a month shy of 17 when I had to say goodbye to her in January of 2024.With the help of this product and the azodyl I got just shy of 2.5 more years with her after her initial diagnosis.She was just borderline on her blood test numbers by the way but didn't do well without some help.I am so glad that I got the extra time with her. Her name was Georgetta and she was a very beautiful soul and now one of my guardian angels.

Doc says no need for fluids!,
Why did you pick this product vs others?:Our cat had a high level 2.0 last year in July when we took her in, they suggested fluids. She didn’t agree with that so I put her on epaciton she doesn’t mind the flavor I’m glad to report one year later her creatinine levels have not changed. They are still 2.0. I will definitely recommend this product to anybody at having an issue with that. Just follow the directions on the back.Health benefits:My cat seems to be doing fine with a epaciton.

Doesn’t impact my cat’s eating
I tried Kidney Restore but my senior CKD cat would not eat or throw it up. I switched to this and now I can mix it easily into food and my cat will eat it all up. This product also seems to be the choice of those who have CKD cats. I would say try it!

From expensive to reasonable.
I used to buy my cat a very expensive medicine for her kidney problem but using this was SO MUCH WORTH IT. I saw some reviews and was worried but this product is the same and more than half the cost. It’s a little weird to use since I used to take apart a pill and mix her food with the contents inside but this, I believe is so much better. Plus it doesn’t hurt my pocket. If anything happens I’ll update but so far we love this product and I’m happy I got it.
