Azodyl Small Capsules - 90 ct

Our 12 year old lab started drinking vast amounts of water and was having incontinence issues, after a trip to the vet she was diagnosed with kidney renal failure. The outlook for this is never good and the vet recommended prescription dog food to help her which I refused since I feed her Honest Kitchen which is much higher quality than the SD they wanted to sell me. After some heavy research I placed her on this, kidney support gold, Epakitin and Welactin. Her results and response to these has been amazing. Within a few weeks we noticed her water intake return to normal and at her 3 month check up her blood work was so much better that our vet couldn’t believe the results. Our pups protein levels were back to normal and her blood pressure was also perfect. It’s going on nine months and we will be having a full work up done in the next few weeks to make sure everything is still looking good. Her activity level matches that of her six year old German Shepherd sister. Not sure if her rebound is the result of just one of the supplements we give her or the work of all of them. Either way we are so thankful that she is doing so much better, is not suffering and has so much more quality time to spend with us.

This product was recommended to us by our vet to help our 16yo Shih-tzu who is suffering from Kidney disease. While using Azodyl, her loss of kidney function has slowed way down and stabilized. While no product can reverse kidney disease, her bloodwork showed a noticeable stabilization in her kidney’s processing ability (before using Azodyl, her values were getting gradually worse every time we had her checked out). The product is expensive, but definitely worthwhile and has added pro-biotic benefits which also help older pups immune systems fight off infections. We usually have to give this to her inside a pill pocket or piece of food... it’s not something most dogs will eat on their own since it’s just a capsule. The small capsule size is small enough that small dogs like our 9lb Shih-tzu can take them (even inside a pill pocket) without trouble.

We had a 12 year old cat that had been in kidney distress, with a UTI, constant need to squat to try to pee, and was failing. She had lost several pounds and was very lethargic. We received two sample capsules from the vet and immediately saw results. She perked right up and, now, after just over a month, with two capsules a day, is back her to normal self. Before trying these I did some research and found that there were no substantial studies of Azodyl, just veterinarians anecdotal stories. The main take away from my research was that the capsules needed to be ingested rather than sprinkling the materials on food. We give our Noiri two capsules a day, one in a.m. and one in pm, and she has responded very well. I strongly recommend trying this if your cat is in kidney distress. The probiotic formula has worked wonders for our cat :)

It was hard to tell if it made a difference in our dog.

Had to hide in pate food, but it worked. He was smacking alot, lethargic as the beginning stages of kidney failure made him loose his appetite. After two days on this, he perked up, at more and walked around happier. Still wish they had smaller capsules, but this works well. Started off with one a day and then moved to two a day after a month. Also was Vet prescribed 1/4 tablet of Pepcid AC and those working together has him out chasing our yard chipmunk I call Nascar for his lightening fast run and the stripes.

I adopted, Snoopy, a super senior cat who has chronic kidney disease (CKD). She stopped eating when she was initially diagnosed a year ago. My vet recommended Azodyl. Snoopy refuses to swallow the capsule so I open the capsule and sprinkle the white powder on her food every morning. I don’t mix the powder into the food so that I can see it to make sure she eats it. Snoopy was also constipated and dehydrated when initially diagnosed but once those two issues were resolved, she began eating again. In the last year she has been eating steadily. Azodyl has been effective. Snoopy turns 17 on 9/16/2022.

This is a $110 probiotic that is temperature sensitive. I paid an extra $5 for expedited shipping. I was home when the delivery arrived, so it was not waiting outside in the heat. The package still arrived hot. The (very small) ice pack was completely melted and warm. This bottle has obviously sustained high temperatures that will have rendered the efficacy of the medication reduced. For $115, I expect that this highly temperature sensitive medication arrives cold (or at least room temperature).

This has seemed to really help my 19yr old boy. The packaging was OUTSTANDING! I ordered this from a different seller last time and was very disappointed in the cold pack they used. This had a big ice pack, wrapped in foam and in a silver bag. It arrived very cold and ice was still frozen! I will definitely reorder!!!
