Description

Vetoquinol Ipakitine is a vital support for dogs and cats with Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and renal failure. This powerful intestinal phosphate binder contains chitosan, calcium carbonate, lactose, and hydrolyzed soy protein to help manage phosphate levels and enhance renal function. Chitosan, extracted from crab and shrimp shells, naturally binds dietary phosphorus and uremic toxins. The addition of lactose and hydrolyzed soy provides essential protein and carbohydrates. Calcium carbonate aids in binding excess phosphorus, promoting its excretion through feces.

Ipakitine is highly palatable and easy to administer – simply sprinkle over dry food or mix with canned food. It is more effective than other phosphate binders, making it a top choice for managing hyperphosphatemia and correcting calcium -phosphorus ratios. Start using Epakitin from stage II of IRIS guidelines or when serum creatinine levels exceed 1.4 mg/dl
