Denamarin is a high level support for the liver with market-leading bioavailability and excellent stability. Denamarin is the #1 vet recommended liver support brand for dogs and cats*. It is recommended by veterinarians to provide anti-oxidant support for those pets with impaired liver function, liver disease, and to aid liver detoxification mechanisms. Denamarin has replaced Denosyl in Australia.
The patented formula in Denamarin combines the benefits of S-Adenosylmethionine (SAMe) and Silybin in one tablet when maximum liver support is needed.
- The specific silybin used in Denamarin has been shown to provide better bioavailability in dogs and cats compared to the standardised milk thistle commonly available in health food stores and over-the-counter in pharmacies.
- Provides comprehensive liver support with two active ingredients SAMe and Silybin.
- Has been shown to protect against negative effects on the liver caused by some medications.
- Has been shown to enhance levels of glutathione for better detoxification.
- Has been shown to protect liver cells from toxins and death, as well as stimulate cell regeneration.
- Silybin A+B acts as an antioxidant, helping protect against reactive oxygen compounds and oxidative stress.
- Proprietary protective coating to ensure excellent stability and bioavailability.
- Proven wide safety margins, high quality assurance, guaranteed by the manufacturer to meet label claims.
Why use Denamarin?
Denamarin is the #1 vet recommended liver support brand for dogs and cats*. Denamarin is sold exclusively through veterinary suppliers (vet clinics and pet pharmacies) as adjunctive treatment for liver disease or dysfunction, such as the following:
- Chronic hepatitis
- Hepatic lipidosis
- Cholangiohepatitis
- Paracetamol toxicity
- Corticosteroid use (Note: does not prevent corticosteroid induced hepatic vacuolar change)
- Other acute or chronic hepatopathies, including hepatotoxins and neoplasia.
Dosage
Absorption of Denamarin is decreased when it is given with a meal. For optimal absorption, administer Denamarin at least one hour before feeding your pet. For owners who find it difficult to administer tablets to their pets, Denamarin tablet(s) may be disguised in a small bite of moist food. It is not necessary to withhold water from your pet when giving Denamarin.
In cats, tablets or capsules can "stick" in the throat instead of passing into the stomach. Therefore, cat owners should gently administer a small amount of water (ask your veterinarian for details) immediately following tablet administration to aid swallowing.
Denamarin tablets should not be broken as the protective coating of the Denamarin tablet protects the active ingredient from destruction while in the stomach. The number of tablets can be gradually reduced or increased as necessary or as advised by your veterinarian. When increasing or decreasing the dose, adjustments should be done in full tablet increments.
Many pets are maintained long-term on every-other-day or every-third-day administration.
