Ipakitine - 60g

Product Information

and this also appears to happen in cats, with such increases being identified before any changes in PTH and Calcium-containing products such as Ipakitine may cause increased calcium levels ( hypercalcaemia). The risk is lower with calcium carbonate-based binders (such as Ipakitine) than with other calcium-based binders, and the manufacturer claims it is less likely to happen with the form of calcium carbonate which they use, but if your cat is taking Ipakitine, it would probably be wise to monitor his/her calcium levels.​ Any item not in its original condition, is damaged or missing parts for reasons not due to our error Sometimes, our loving pets are just like us, and they develop unfortunate health conditions with age. If your dog or cat suffers from chronic renal failure, you need to give them Ipakitine to help control renal function.

For the four existing presentations (Azodyl®, Ipakitine®, Renalzin® and Rubenal®) prehension was shown to be rather low in healthy cats. Voluntary prehension is not always easy to achieve in cats, but is clearly the first requirement in cases where the owner is unwilling or unable to use a forced administration for the animal. Tablet presentations are often more adapted to forced administration unless they are highly palatable. International Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, Therapy and Toxicology 24(2) pp93-6, did find sucralfate was effective as a binder in Studies have shown the benefits of phosphate reduction in dogs and cats suffering from kidney failure. It’s now widely accepted that there’s a direct link between the length and quality of life of a dog or cat with kidney insufficiency and the phosphate levels they get through their food. As such, Ipakitine acts to reduce phosphorus blood concentration and uremia, resulting in an increase in life expectancy. Ipakitine key benefits: CVC in San Diego Proceedings says "Intestinal phosphate binders should be added if serum phosphate remainsCoupled with thorough statistical analyses, the observations recorded were designed to establish the acceptability and consumption of each supplement. Video records were obtained to allow independent assessment without interfering with the cat’s behaviour. Each animal was offered its allocated test product in its box during 10minutes. Consumption and prehension were assessed as described below.

Thus management of the dietary availability of phosphorus in patients suffering from chronic renal disease and/or hyperparathyroidism could be useful from the early stages [ 10]. Where possible this should be based on accurate monitoring, tailored to the individual cat [ 12].

Warnings

The useful consumption statistical analyses once again demonstrated the existence of a distinct difference among the products containing IPB. Once again Pronefra® stood out as being distinctly separated from Renalzin® and Ipakitine®. However in this analysis around one quarter of the cats were willing to consume amounts of Renalzin® that were defined as useful. Once again, and somewhat surprisingly, no cats were willing to consume useful amounts of Ipakitine®. This low innate palatability combined with its galenic presentation as a powder which makes forced administration extremely difficult will almost certainly compromise compliance. For the analysis of useful consumption, the situation for the products not containing an IPB was different to that for total consumption and prehension: Azodyl® was found to be statistically superior to Rubenal® and was consumed to a useful level by around half of the cats. Some of the symptoms associated with high calcium levels are lethargy, weakness, reduced appetite, confusion and depression - if that describes what you're seeing, then you should definitely have her seen and have bloodwork done. Those are some of the more minor symptoms, with high blood pressure, seizures, stupor and coma the worse. Kalantar-Zadeh K. Patient education for phosphorus management in chronic kidney disease.

[ PMC free article] [ PubMed] [ Google Scholar] Numerous studies have shown the benefits of phosphates reduction in dogs and cats suffering from kidney failure and it is now widely accepted that there is a direct link between the length and quality of life of a cat or dog with kidney failure and the amount of phosphates they get through their food.

The difference between products containing an IPB appears to be even more pronounced when refusal to consume is assessed with around half of all cats refusing to consume the two previously existing products.
