Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What does Azodyl support in dogs and cats with kidney disease?

Ans: Azodyl is a probiotic supplement used to support normal kidney detoxification in dogs and cats. Veterinarians may recommend Azodyl as part of a renal care plan to help manage uremic toxins and support quality of life in renal patients.

Q2: How does Azodyl work in the digestive tract?

Ans: Azodyl is designed to deliver beneficial bacteria to the intestines. VCA explains the concept as adding nitrogen-consuming bacteria that help break down waste products linked with reduced kidney clearance. Individual response varies, and lab tests may be needed to assess the effect.

Q3: What are Azodyl’s active probiotic strains and amounts?

Ans: Azodyl lists three active probiotic strains per capsule: Streptococcus thermophilus (KB19), Lactobacillus acidophilus (KB27), and Bifidobacterium longum (KB31). Each strain is listed at 5 x 10^9 CFU per capsule on product facts.

Q4: How should Azodyl be administered for best handling?

Ans: Give Azodyl capsules whole—do not open or crush them. Label directions recommend administering Azodyl on an empty stomach and ensuring free access to fresh water during use. Follow the veterinarian’s plan for duration and scheduling in renal patients.

Q5: What is the Azodyl dosage chart for dogs and cats?

Ans: Pets under 5 lb receive 1 capsule daily. Pets 5–10 lb receive 2 capsules daily (1 AM, 1 PM). Pets over 10 lb receive 3 capsules daily (2 AM, 1 PM). Use the veterinarian’s plan for long-term renal support.

Q6: How long does it take to see measurable results with Azodyl?

Ans: Vetoquinol notes improvement in BUN and creatinine can be seen as early as four weeks. Because visible changes may be subtle, a veterinarian may recommend periodic laboratory monitoring to evaluate whether Azodyl is helping support renal parameters.

Q7: Can Azodyl be given for the life of the pet?

Ans: Yes. Label information indicates Azodyl administration can be continued for the life of the animal. Consistent, long-term use is commonly recommended in renal care plans, with veterinary reassessment to confirm Azodyl is appropriate and well tolerated.

Q8: Does Azodyl require refrigeration and special storage?

Ans: Azodyl should be stored in a refrigerator. Refrigerated storage is listed on labeling and veterinary references. Check the package for lot and expiration information and keep Azodyl away from children and animals to reduce accidental exposure or overdose.

Q9: What precautions apply to pregnant or breeding pets using Azodyl?

Ans: Azodyl labeling states safe use in pregnant animals or animals intended for breeding has not been proven. A veterinarian should determine whether Azodyl is appropriate in these situations, especially when renal support is needed alongside other therapies or diet plans.

Q10: What should be done if Azodyl causes concerns or if a dose is missed?

Ans: If the pet’s condition worsens or does not improve, stop Azodyl and consult a veterinarian. If a dose is missed, VCA advises giving it when remembered, unless it is close to the next dose, in which case skip the missed dose—never double-dose.
