Abstract
Chronic kidney disease in cats is one of the most common diseases. The main direction of palliative therapy for chronic kidney disease and extending the survival time of cats is to limit phosphates in the diet and normalize the phosphorus content in the animal’s body. In order to reduce phosphates, phosphate binders are used - substances whose mechanism of action is to bind excess phosphate ions in the gastrointestinal tract, which prevents their entry into the blood-stream. The purpose of the study is to analyze the effectiveness of feed additives “Urdetox” and “Ipakitine” in a comparative aspect in the palliative treatment of chronic kidney disease in cats. Determination of the biological activity of the proposed feed additive for cats with CKD in the form of tablets was carried out on the basis of veterinary clinics in the city. Volgograd, St. Petersburg, Moscow, in the period 2021-2022. The objects of the study were cats whose owners complained of loss of animal body weight, often a general depressed state, decreased appetite, periodic vomiting, frequent urination, dull hair. The diagnosis and experiment were carried out by collecting anamnestic data, determining clinical signs and laboratory data - a general urine test and a biochemical analysis of blood serum. Studies have shown that feed additives containing a phosphate binder and a detoxicant help eliminate the main clinical manifestations of chronic renal failure. The introduction of the essential amino acid -taurine into the feed additive in the form of Urdetox tablets, as well as the accuracy of dosing and ease of use increase the effectiveness of its biological action.
