Supposed to Help with UTI
Well they asked for a review, which is hard to do. But 2-year-old Border Collie has had regular UTIs and this is supposed help move the PH to a less hospitable environment. Seeing as our water is Basic I'm hoping this help. Will update in 3 months, only 1 month in to treatment.

This medication is perfect
From UndisclosedComments about DL-Methionine 500mg, 150 TabletsBrie our 3 year old cocker spaniel has been suffering with UTIS and crystals for way too long. Our vet wanted us to put her on the prescription diet but I did not want to do that. So we are feeding her cooked diet with the Dl Methonine also along with other supplements from our holistic vet. Cranberry Extrac with D Mannose Apple cider vinegar. and she is doing great so far. -

Medication is Amazing
From UndisclosedComments about DL-Methionine 500mg, 150 TabletsMy Talula has had bladder stones for years and multiple surgeries. My vet recommended these meds about a year ago. She was tested again few weeks ago and Talula's urine and bladder have never been better. I would recommend this to anyone who may be having these issues with their fur babies.-

Great results with DL-Methionine
From St Pete, FLComments about DL-MethionineWhy change dog food to prescription when all you need to do is add DL-Methionine, 1 pill a day. Lucy had two kinds of crystals in her urine, after one bottle of 500 pills there are no crystals and her pH is normal. So happy. -

My dog is very finicky do they taste good.?

Customers review the product as having a “treat” like smell. It can also be crushed and added to your dog’s food if it is not palatable to your dog as a treat.
Verified Answer -
My dog won't go near this product and i tried everything. Soft food, Liver worst, cheese, Apple Sauce and other cold cuts that a dog is allowed and she doesn't go near it. She wouldn't go near her soft food for a few days in fear that it was in there.

Hi, could I ask a question about the dosage of 500mg. It states on the package insert that cats should have 1 tablet one or two times a day, but dogs get 1/2 a tablet one or two times a day. That seems odd to me as a cat is a lot smaller that some dogs. It this actually correct. Thank you?
-
According to the package label, cats should receive one tablet per 10 lb of weight once or twice daily with food, and dogs should receive one-half tablet per 10 lb of weight once or twice daily with food. Please contact your veterinarian to determine the best dose for your cat or dog.

At the present time my 10.5lb. Pomeranian has crystals in his urine but no kidney issues. Can long term use of this medication cause kidney issues? What about anorexia??
-
According to the DL-Methionine product information, side effects of this medication do not include kidney issues from long-term use. One side effect of DL-Methionine is the loss of appetite, which may lead to anorexia. Please consult your veterinarian to discuss this medication and treatment options for your dog.

I need to know how big the tablets are for cats!?
-
The 200mg pills are 1 cm round, about half a cm wide. About the same size as the round motrin pills. I crush mine with a mortar and pestle and mix in wet food though

Is there a way of testing my dogs urine to see what the pH is without going to my vet??
-
There are products available to test the pH but you will want to discuss with your veterinarian if testing your pet's urine pH at home is appropriate. pH paper strips are good for approximations of pH, while a pH meter is more accurate and can be calibrated.
