Lysine Aid Gel Cat 50ml

Recommended to reduce the severity of clinical symptoms in cats and kittens infected with herpes virus (FHV-1) and minimize their ability to contagion.

Feline herpes virus (FHV-1)

Infectious disease experts estimate that at least 80% of cats are infected with feline herpes virus throughout their lives. Once the initial infection is resolved, the virus becomes latent, and in stressful situations, it can reactivate and cause respiratory and / or ocular pathology. Cats infected with FHV-1 are thus chronically ill and permanent carriers of the infection. Typical symptoms include runny nose, sneezing, conjunctivitis, keratitis, chemosis, ulcers on the nose, lips, tongue and gums; and, in general, fever, lethargy and loss of appetite.

L-lysine

Lysine is an amino acid that, among other properties, has a competitive action with arginine, another amino acid that is essential for the replication of FHV-1. By blocking arginine, L-lysine inhibits the virus's ability to multiply. Recent clinical studies demonstrate the effectiveness of oral lysine in reducing both viral elimination and clinical symptoms associated with the virus.

Cats: 2 ml twice a day.
