EicosaCaps
Omega 3 & 6 Capsules
Dechra EicosaCaps For Dogs and Cats contains Omega-3 & 6 fatty acids along with the antioxidants Vitamins C, E, Zinc and Garlic.
Dogs & cats have strict dietary requirements for certain
polyunsaturated fatty acids that are important for maintaining skin and hair
coat conditions, reproductive function & tissue repair. Appropriate fatty acids can reduce chronic itching, excessive shedding and help brighten dry, lusterless coats.
Current research shows that Omega-3 fatty acids also play an
important role in mediating and regulating inflammatory, immune & aggregatory
responses within the body.
Omega-3 offers considerable potential for disease prevention
and in the therapeutic management of a wide variety of clinical disorders.
Subsequently Omega-3 supplements have been used in veterinary
trials, predominately in animals with inflammatory and immune-based conditions,
with very favorable clinical responses.
