PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Royal Canin Urinary S/O is a complete dietetic dry food for adult dogs, formulated for the dissolution of struvite stones and the reduction of struvite stone recurrence through urine undersaturating and acidifying properties. This specialist diet uses Relative Super Saturation (RSS) methodology to help lower the concentration of ions in urine, minimising the likelihood of both struvite and calcium oxalate stones forming. The formula contains a reduced level of magnesium (0.05%), a natural component of struvite crystals, and promotes urine dilution to make the urine less liable to form crystals. Enriched with fructo-oligosaccharides to support digestive health and EPA/DHA (0.22%) for overall wellbeing. In older dogs, renal function should be checked before recommending this diet.
