Hill's® Prescription Diet® k/d® is a specialized clinical nutrition solution designed to support kidney health in dogs. This therapeutic diet addresses the crucial role of kidneys in filtering waste and toxins from the blood while maintaining the delicate balance of fluids and minerals in the body.
Developed by Hill's expert team of nutritionists and veterinarians, Prescription Diet® k/d® offers targeted nutritional support for dogs experiencing kidney issues. As pets age, kidney tissue damage can occur, leading to irreversible loss of kidney function. This may result in decreased appetite and reduced caloric intake, potentially causing muscle mass loss. Hill's® Prescription Diet® k/d® is formulated to address these challenges, providing essential nutrition to support renal health. Importantly, this diet has been clinically proven to improve and extend the quality of life for dogs with kidney concerns. By choosing Prescription Diet® k/d®, you're providing your canine companion with scientifically formulated nutrition that not only supports their kidney function but also contributes to their overall well-being and longevity.
