Potassium gluconate for use as a supplement in potassium-deficient states in cats and dogs. Do not administer to animals that have diseases where high potassium levels may be encountered, such as severe renal insufficiency or adrenal insufficiency. Use with caution in patients that have cardiac disease, particularly in digitalized patients or those with renal disease.
My dog has been on this for a few weeks now and her energy levels are noticeably better. The powder mixes easily into her wet food without any clumping, which is a huge relief.
Managing my cat's potassium levels got so much easier once we switched to the powder form — I just mix it into his wet food and he licks the bowl clean. It dissolves quickly with no grit left behind, which was my main worry.
My vet put my old cat on this after his potassium came back low and within a few weeks he was eating normally again instead of just picking at his food. The powder dissolves easily in a little warm water and I just syringe it, no gagging or fuss. So relieved it's a simple fix.
