A chronic kidney disease (CKD) diagnosis changes everything about how your pet needs to eat. Royal Canin Veterinary Diet Renal Support is the vet-exclusive therapeutic nutrition system built specifically around the reality of diminishing kidney function.
The foundational strategy for CKD nutrition:
- Restricted phosphorus — the single most critical dietary factor in slowing CKD progression
- Controlled high-quality protein — enough to maintain muscle mass, not so much that nitrogenous waste overwhelms damaged kidneys
- S/O Index® — protects against crystal formation, a common complication in CKD patients
- B vitamins — replenish vitamins lost through increased urination
- Omega-3 fatty acids — reduce glomerular inflammation
Multiple palatability profiles (A, D, E, S, T, P) address the appetite suppression common in CKD. Also available: Early Consult, Renal + Hydrolyzed Protein, Liquid, and wet formats for increased hydration.
