Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure proper compatibility and care, always follow your veterinarian's exact dosage instructions based on your cat's body weight. Store the tablets in their original packaging in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and out of reach of children or other pets. Do not crush the tablets unless explicitly instructed by a veterinarian, as this can affect the medication's absorption rate. If you are concurrently using other feline supplements or medications, disclose this to your vet to avoid potential drug interactions. Monitor your cat for any changes in behavior, such as lethargy or decreased appetite, and report these to your clinic immediately.
