      Additional information
      • IMPORTANT: Prescription Diet™ n/d™ Canine has a high fat and energy content; therefore it is recommended that the full feeding amount is introduced gradually (i.e. over 4 - 5 days) to minimise the possibility of a temporary gastrointestinal upset.
      • Clinically proven8 to improve the quality of life of dogs with cancer undergoing chemotherapy or radiotherapy.

      • n/d Canine contains sufficient vitamin E to ensure adequate plasma levels, but is deliberately not supplemented with high levels of biological antioxidants to combat free radicals, because this would interfere with chemotherapy and radiotherapy which act by producing free radicals to destroy tumours.
