Bioforlife Therapet - Cystophan 30 compresse

Cystophan helps relieve the symptoms of Feline Idiopathic Cystitis (FIC), a disease that affects many cats within 10 years; FIC is the leading cause of feline lower urinary tract infections (FLUTD), and has several physical, environmental and management predisposing factors.
Cystophan helps support and preserve the bladder GAG layer; as stress is a worsening factor of the pathology, it contains L-tryptophan, precursor of serotonin, known as the "hormone of happiness".

Active ingredients:
- N-acetyl d-glucosamine - precursor of chondroitin sulphate and keratin sulphate which make up the GAG ​​layer which defines and protects the bladder urothelium. This layer, if strong and resistant, prevents the adhesion of bacteria to the mucosal cells.
- Hyaluronic acid - one of the main components of the GAG ​​layer that protects the bladder, makes up its scaffolding.
- L-tryptophan: precursor of serotonin, it helps to reduce the animal's stress and anxiety; it also regulates appetite and sleep.
- Artificial chicken flavor: to increase palatability and compliance.

Indications:
Cystophan is very useful in the management of FIC, as thanks to its active ingredients it is effective in acute and chronic cases:
- Acute FIC: reduces the severity and duration of clinical signs
- Chronic FIC: increases the duration of the interval between episodes, and decreases severity and duration of clinical signs
