PRO PLAN Veterinary Diets
PPVD DM Tender Pieces with Chicken Feline Pouches Formula
A clinical diet to help manage diabetes mellitus in cats through improved glucose regulation.
Pack size 85g x 10
PRO PLAN® Veterinary Diets DM Diabetes Management Feline Formulas are specially designed to support diabetic cats by managing their glucose levels through a carefully balanced diet. Diabetes mellitus is a serious condition that affects a cat’s ability to regulate blood sugar, leading to potential complications such as ketoacidosis, hepatic lipidosis, and chronic infections if left untreated or poorly managed. However, with the right dietary management and veterinary guidance, many diabetic cats can lead active, healthy lives.
The PRO PLAN® DM formulas are high in protein and low in carbohydrates, which align with a cat’s natural metabolism, helping to regulate blood glucose levels effectively. The carefully formulated recipe supports stable insulin production and reduces fluctuations in blood sugar, helping to prevent dangerous spikes or drops in glucose levels. This specialized formula also promotes lean muscle mass, supporting the overall health and vitality of diabetic cats.
The development of this diet is based on extensive research and collaboration between Purina nutritionists, veterinarians, and scientists. These formulas are nutritionally complete and balanced to meet the needs of diabetic cats, providing essential nutrients that support not only glucose control but also overall well-being. Whether used alone or in combination with insulin therapy, PRO PLAN® DM Diabetes Management Feline Formulas are an effective tool for managing diabetes in cats and improving their quality of life.
