Setup, Compatibility & Care
Transitioning to Specific CED-DM should always be done gradually over 5-7 days to prevent gastrointestinal upset, mixing increasing amounts of the new food with the previous diet. Store the 2kg bag in a cool, dry place and ensure the seal is tight to maintain freshness and prevent oxidative spoilage of the nutrients. This diet is compatible with most veterinary treatment plans for endocrine issues, but it should not be mixed with unauthorized treats or human food, as these may interfere with the metabolic management goals established by your veterinarian.
