When should Rubenal be used to support renal function?

Chronic renal failure is a common condition in older dogs and cats. When the kidneys function less efficiently, it becomes more difficult for them to filter waste from the bloodstream. Like a clogged filter that lets impurities through, the body struggles to maintain its internal balance. In this context, targeted nutritional support can accompany the overall care provided by your veterinarian.

Rubenal is a plant-based veterinary food supplement formulated with rhubarb root (Rheum officinale). This plant contains rhein and emodin, two compounds studied for their role in maintaining kidney tissue integrity. Its action is designed to support renal function and assist natural elimination mechanisms.

In animals suffering from chronic renal failure, the aim is to act over the long term. This supplement is part of an overall strategy that includes appropriate nutrition, hydration and regular veterinary monitoring. Its formulation helps promote internal balance by supporting the physiological processes involved in the management of metabolic waste.

Its tablet format facilitates daily administration for both dogs and cats. It is particularly suitable for animals requiring prolonged support, with a gentle, gradual approach. The idea is not to replace a medical treatment, but toaccompany the treatment and protect elimination functions over time.

For a complete nutritional approach, the use of Ipakitine Oral Powder Pot Vétoquinol is also a relevant option, as this supplement helps manage phosphorus intake, creating an interesting synergy in the overall support of renal function.
