Peridale Capsules for cats and kittens (pack of 100) |
|
| Presentation
Clear Gelatin capsules enclosing orange-coloured granules, containing Sterculia 118 mg in each capsule.
Uses
Bulk promoting agent, exerting its effect mainly by a hydrophilic action; the Sterculia in Peridale takes up as much as 60 times its own volume of water, forming a gelatinous mass. This increases the bulk of the intestinal contents, promotes peristalsis and helps to ensure the easy passage of a soft stool. Sterculia is an otherwise inert substance, not absorbed and so not exerting any systemic effect.
Indications in cats:
- control of specific and non-specific diarrhoea
- control of faecal consistency following surgery
- after-surgery constipation
Dosage and administration
Kittens: 1 capsule daily.
Cats: 1 capsule night and morning.
The capsule may be given directly or the contents sprinkled on feed. If the capsules are to be opened, the contents should be sprinkled on a small amount of food immediately before consumption.
