aminox is a highly palatable liquid nutritional supplement for cats with chronic renal failure and other disorders resulting from low potassium blood levels. It contains additional B-vitamins and essential amino acids for nutritional support. The body needs potassium as it is essential for the correct functioning of many body systems, e.g. the heart and blood vessels, kidneys, muscles, nerves and energy production. Kaminox is a tasty supplement that contains B vitamins, which may increase the cat’s appetite and help with energy production, as well as amino acids, iron and potassium. In cats with kidney disease: if the potassium levels become low then that can lead to further damage to the kidneys, exacerbating the problem. Cats can have a decreased appetite, as there is a constant loss of potassium in the urine, so if it is not being taken in via the diet then the levels will continue to decline. It is common for cats to experience low potassium levels (hypokalaemia) has been identified in 37% of cats who are hospitalised. It is also the most common electrolyte abnormality associated with feline chronic kidney disease (CKD) (in one study the incidence was 79%) It can also occur in liver and gastrointestinal disease, and levels should be monitored closely in these cases.
