P-57
Phosphorus Binder for Cats and Dogs
Normal phosphorus balance, for periods when kidney health needs extra care
P-57 is a complementary feed in powder form that helps maintain a normal phosphorus balance in cats and dogs. Per kilogram, 895,000 mg of lanthanum carbonate octahydrate forms insoluble compounds with dietary phosphate in the digestive tract, so that phosphorus passes out in the faeces rather than being absorbed. Lanthanum binds phosphate with a capacity around eight times greater than calcium-based binders. 5,000 mg of colloidal silica keeps the powder free-flowing and easy to dose. Through periods when kidney health needs extra attention, it is nutritional support that accompanies veterinary care.
This product is a nutritional supplement (a complementary feed); it is not a veterinary medicine and does not replace veterinary treatment — it accompanies it. Speak to your veterinary surgeon before use.
Targeted Areas of Support
Binding Phosphate in the Gut
Lanthanum ions form insoluble compounds with dietary phosphate ions independently of pH, so phosphorus leaves in the faeces rather than being absorbed.
Eight Times the Capacity
Lanthanum binds phosphate with a capacity around eight times greater than calcium-based binders, so a smaller dose achieves the same effect.
Easy, Precise Dosing
Colloidal silica keeps the powder free-flowing, so a measured scoop mixes easily into food at every meal.
Highly Concentrated Lanthanum Carbonate
895,000 mg per kilogram of lanthanum carbonate octahydrate is the high-density active that makes up almost the whole formula.
Colloidal Silica
5,000 mg of colloidal silica prevents caking, giving an even mix and precise dosing.
Given With Meals
Phosphate binders work when taken together with food; P-57 accompanies every meal easily.
