Prescription foods

Post by Marty »

Does anyone have a link that might tell me what is in them? We can keep using Hill's d/d or switch to IVD Control fr Winnie. I can't find one place that actually says what the ingredients are...all I know is that it is naturally preserved, which is better than Hill's.

Here you go,

Hill's RX Diets

IVD Veterinary Diets

Keep in mind IVD may have their analysis/ingredients listed as pdf files. If you can't find the files on the site, you can go to the UK's Medi-cal site and find what you need, IVD diets are the US equivalents to Medical's diets.

Although I don't understand most of that, I do know we have Adobe, so maybe I can mush through this stuff!! Son and Hubby set up most of this computer that I take for granted!

Marty, right, you can click on a pdf link and it will come up as a document, I'm sure you've seen these before.

As for the links, if you're only interested in the IVD, just go directly to the Medical site, don't need to worry about pdf files, they have everything you need right there in regular text on the site......

if you dont have acroread, then download it from here.

depending on your web browser, it may simply open acroread when you click on the link. otherwise, right-click and save/download it and then open it from your computer.

I got the info I was looking for and printed it out...once I figured out that Medi-cal was IVD.. I am leaning towards the IVD, but I am also considering paying to have a homemade diet made up for her. I will put that on a separate thread. Thanks for all your help! You are great!
