Cystophan for Cats

Cystophan for Cats is a supplement designed to support urinary tract health and bladder function in cats. It is often recommended by veterinary professionals for cats suffering from Feline Idiopathic Cystitis (FIC), a common urinary condition that can cause stress and discomfort. By combining carefully selected ingredients, Cystophan helps maintain a healthy bladder lining, supports natural defences against irritation, and promotes overall urinary comfort.

How Cystophan for Cats Works

Cystophan is formulated with a combination of ingredients that support the bladder lining and promote comfort in cats affected by urinary conditions such as FIC. Its action is based on replacing and strengthening the natural defences of the bladder.

N-acetyl D-glucosamine: This is a key building block in the production of glycosaminoglycans. Supplementing with N-acetyl D-glucosamine supports the repair and reinforcement of the bladder lining, helping to restore its natural protective barrier.

L-tryptophan: This amino acid is included due to its role in the production of serotonin, a neurotransmitter that helps regulate mood and stress responses. Since stress is strongly associated with the occurrence of FIC episodes, supporting normal serotonin levels may help reduce the frequency of flare-ups.

Hyaluronic acid: This naturally occurring substance helps maintain tissue hydration and elasticity. In the bladder, it plays a role in supporting the integrity of the lining and improving its ability to resist irritation.

Chicken flavouring: This is added to encourage voluntary acceptance by cats, making administration more straightforward. Cats are known for being selective with their food and supplements, so palatability is an important factor in ensuring consistent use.

Zylkene 450mg for Dogs is designed to assist larger breeds that experience signs of stress or anxiety in everyday life. Each capsule contains alpha-casozepine, a decapeptide derived from casein. This compound is extracted through a specialised process that isolates the calming components of milk protein. The formula offers support to dogs that display restlessness, nervousness, or other indications of discomfort in specific situations. The aim is to help dogs feel more at ease when confronted with common triggers, without causing drowsiness or making them lethargic. This supplement works alongside your dog’s natural responses, promoting steadiness and composure.

Alpha-casozepine is at the core of Zylkene’s mode of action. It influences certain receptors in the central nervous system involved in regulating mood. By interacting with these receptors, alpha-casozepine can encourage a state of relaxation in dogs, making it easier for them to cope with unexpected events. This approach does not sedate or immobilise the dog but instead helps maintain balanced behaviour. The 450mg strength is intended for larger dogs, though individual requirements can vary. Some medium-sized dogs might also benefit from this potency. Guidance from a veterinary professional is advised to determine the most appropriate dosage.

Anxiety in dogs can manifest in many forms, depending on the individual dog’s temperament and environment. Certain dogs appear agitated by small changes, while others react only to more intense stimuli such as thunderstorms or fireworks. Some common signs include panting, whining, destructive chewing, or a general inability to settle. Others may lose interest in normal activities, refuse food, or hide away from people. Persistent anxiety can impact a dog’s overall wellbeing, leading to health concerns if left unaddressed. It is important to observe the dog’s behaviour patterns and consider any environmental factors that might be causing discomfort.
