What is Porus
®
One?
Each packet of Porus One contains Renaltec
TM
, a selective carbon-based adsorber of protein byproducts
in the gut.
Renaltec is composed of tiny, black homogenous spheres with diameters of 0.1 to 0.3 mm. Each sphere has
a smooth surface and is perforated by numerous pores leading to a branched channel system similar to the bronchi.
This smooth surface assures an unimpeded passage through the GI tract, neither adhering to the mucosa nor
accumulating in the intestine.
Has Porus
®
One been studied in cats?
In an 8-week study of 18 healthy geriatric cats (11 to 16 years of age), Porus One was shown to be beneficial
for kidney health. Twelve cats received 500 mg of Porus One daily and six cats served as a negative control,
receiving the same type of food as the Porus One group. The mean serum indoxyl sulfate concentration was
reduced by more than 60% in the Porus One group while no significant change was observed in the control
group. Porus One was also readily accepted and well tolerated by the cats.**
How is
Porus
®
One used
?
Porus One is tasteless and odorless, and can be easily
administered to cats once daily at mealtime. If your
feline patient takes other oral medications, those
should be given at least two hours prior.
NOTE: it is normal for a thin layer of Porus One to
remain inside the packet.
