Prescription diets for pets are commonly used to manage a variety of conditions, including kidney disease, liver disease, diabetes, obesity, allergies, and gastrointestinal disorders. These diets are formulated with specific nutrient profiles that help to support the health of pets with these conditions, such as reducing protein or sodium levels for pets with kidney disease, increasing fiber content for pets with gastrointestinal issues, or using novel protein sources to manage food allergies.
Prescription diets for pets are typically sold by veterinary clinics or authorized pet food retailers such as the Hungry Puppy, and are not available for purchase at regular pet stores. They are often more expensive than regular pet food, but can be an important part of managing a pet's health condition and improving their quality of life.
It's important to note that while prescription diets for pets can be helpful in managing certain health conditions, they should always be used under the guidance of a veterinarian. Additionally, it's important to follow feeding instructions carefully and to not use these diets for healthy pets without a specific recommendation from a veterinarian.
Here is a sampling of the prescription diet brands you can find at the Hungry Puppy:
You can also find prescription treats and prescription supplements for your dog or cat.
Please note that prescription diets are typically recommended by a veterinarian and require a prescription to purchase. It's important to consult with a veterinarian before making any changes to your pet's diet.
