Cyston is a complex biologically active agent. It :

• It eliminates infection well and extinguishes the inflammatory process.
• Softens and crushes stones in urine into microscopic particles. Prevents their re-formation and promotes their withdrawal.

Canephron for chronic renal failure in cats

CKD stands for "chronic kidney failure." Older cats are susceptible to this disease. It is characterized by irreversible deterioration of the kidney tissue. Among cats over 15 years old, this disease is observed in every second animal.

You can understand that your pet has chronic renal failure if you pay attention to the presence of symptoms such as:

• bad breath;
• stomatitis;
• sores on the tip of the tongue;
• pale color of mucous membranes.

Associated symptoms may also include intestinal disorders, vomiting, and disorders of the nervous system and behavior. Due to the fact that phosphorus excretion from the cat's body is impaired, renal hyperparathyroidism can develop. This is a disease with a predominance of severe urolithiasis, with frequent attacks of renal colic, and the development of renal failure.

Since renal failure in this case has a chronic course, Canephron is prescribed here as maintenance therapy to reduce the effect of various factors on the kidneys. If the urea content is high, Hofitol is prescribed together with Canephron. The dose of Canephron for cats in this case is half a tablet, and the dose of Hofitol is a quarter of a tablet. These drugs are used twice a day. The duration of the course is determined by the veterinarian, taking into account the general condition of the cat.

Also, for chronic renal failure in cats, in addition to drug treatment, diet and vitamin intake, rest and absence of stressful situations are recommended. Therefore, long trips should be postponed until you finish taking the medications.

Side effects and overdose

The natural base of Cyston guarantees the safety of treatment and virtually eliminates any side effects. In exceptional cases, due to hypersensitivity to the components or the presence of individual intolerance, the animal may experience an allergic rash, mild nausea and stool disorders.

Nausea is a common side effect of cystone.

Typically, such symptoms do not require treatment and go away on their own after discontinuation of the drug. No cases of overdose have been reported to date, but if the recommended doses are exceeded, they cannot be ruled out and can cause vomiting, diarrhea and skin rash.

Sometimes individual intolerance to cystone components also occurs.

Attention! If, after taking Cyston, your cat or dog’s condition worsens in your opinion, or unwanted or atypical symptoms appear in the body, immediately contact your veterinarian. The individual characteristics of a pet do not exclude the occurrence of side effects that were not previously identified.

Characteristics of Cyston

Cyston is a multicomponent drug that includes 7 plants, each of which has a healing effect on the body. Knowing what Cyston helps with, you can take it to prevent diseases of the kidneys, bladder, ureters and even prostatitis. The fact is that the drug has an absolute advantage over all other drugs in this series: it effectively neutralizes pathogenic microorganisms without causing any harm to beneficial microflora.

Composition and class of the drug

This is an exclusively herbal preparation. Not a single synthetic component - only extracts of medicinal herbs collected at a certain time (the most successful for the synergy of medicinal properties) in proven places.

Plants that have a healing effect on the kidneys:

• the roots of the membranous nymph relieve pain while promoting sweating;
• the flowers of the double-carp stem have a whole range of medicinal properties;
• Ash vernonia helps cope with fever;
• flowering onosma is a powerful diuretic;
• the stems of Saxifraga reed promote the dissolution of stones and have an antitumor effect;
• stems of heart-leaved madder dissolve stones (oxalate) in the kidneys and ureters, and also relieve inflammation and pain;
• The seeds of the rough straw flower have a wide medicinal spectrum and enhance the effect of all other plants.

Cyston contains two more important components: purified mumiyo and lime silicate. Shilajit is a powerful natural antibiotic, and lime silicate is an excellent diuretic.

The composition is supplemented with a mixture of 7 more very beneficial herbs for humans, steamed in a special way. Among them are fragrant basil, horsetail and pumpkin seeds.

Mechanism of action

The main distinguishing feature of Cyston is its ability to have a complex effect on the body in several directions at once.

Action:

1. Antimicrobial. Prevents and stops the spread of infection, working selectively only with pathological microorganisms.
2. Synergistic and protective. Enhances the effectiveness of antibiotics and eliminates dysbacteriosis.
3. An excellent diuretic, but it does not lead to potassium leaching, as it helps normalize the amount of urine.
4. It is effective for urolithiasis, since the active ingredients are capable of destroying sand and small stones both in the bladder and urinary tract, and in the kidneys. Moreover, it prevents the formation of new stones by maintaining the balance of salts in the urine.

Cyston does not act instantly, so you should not expect instant healing. The drug has a cumulative effect. That is why you need to drink it in courses, strictly observing the dosage and without interrupting treatment. Then the result will definitely be positive.

Pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics

The effect of this drug on the body is determined both by the properties of its individual components and their combination. Studies on the pharmacokinetics of Cyston have not been conducted, but as for pharmacodynamics, based on many observations, positive conclusions have been made about the high effectiveness of the drug.

We are talking about a gentle but guaranteed elimination of the inflammatory process in the kidneys, urinary tract, and bladder. Possessing an antispasmodic effect, the drug can significantly relieve pain due to cystitis.

Positive effect:

• blood flow increases;
• inflammation is relieved;
• urine flow improves;
• urine acidity decreases;
• demineralization of stones occurs;
• the stones destructure and crumble.

Cyston is unlikely to be able to cope with acute inflammation, accompanied by severe pain and high fever, on his own. Therefore, during the acute period of the disease, it is prescribed as a concomitant drug, and then, after the patient recovers from the crisis, as the main one. They drink it in long courses as part of maintenance therapy and for prevention. Systemic administration according to a clear scheme can relieve acute manifestations of cystitis, urethritis, pyelonephritis and even urolithiasis for many years and even forever.

Release forms

Cystone is available exclusively in tablet form. Greenish-brown tablets are compressed fine powder from medicinal plants processed in a special way. Packed in plastic bottles of 100 pieces. The cardboard box in which the bottle is packaged contains detailed instructions.

Purpose

Cyston is prescribed to domestic cats for the following diseases of the genitourinary system:

• cystitis;
• urinary tract infections;
• pyelonephritis;
• ICD and others.

Urolithiasis, otherwise known as urolithiasis, is a pathology that affects metabolic processes in the animal’s body. It is characterized by the formation of stones in the organs of the urinary system, which include the kidneys, ureters, and bladder). In cats, and especially male cats, the disease ranks high in the frequency of diagnosis and, unfortunately, often causes dire consequences.

Important!

Urolithiasis (UCD) occurs in almost every third cat; the pathology is diagnosed in cats a little less frequently.

The disease is the formation of sand and stones in the urinary tract, bladder and kidneys of the animal. The risk group includes:

• cats, the risk of disease increases in castrates;
• unsterilized cats;
• animals of long-haired breeds;
• overweight pets.

The disease progresses with periodic exacerbations, usually occurring in autumn and winter. External factors can cause the formation of stones. When feeding food containing excess amounts of protein, urine becomes more concentrated and its filtration decreases. Even elevated indoor air temperatures and the composition of air and water can lead to the formation of sand or stones in the kidneys and bladder, which are based on salts.

When the urinary tract is blocked, the pet experiences pain when trying to go to the litter box. The amount of urine is noticeably reduced. You can observe how the cat often sits down - not only in the tray, but also in inappropriate places, even if there were no such problems before. Dangerous consequences of urolithiasis can be the development of renal failure (CRF), as well as intoxication of the body - when the removal of toxins and other waste products from the body is delayed, they spread to other organs and tissues, which leads to death.

Important!

Symptoms of a severe form of the disease include a large amount of blood in the urine, painful urination, noticeable weight loss, depression, and lethargy. Vomiting, convulsions, and short-term loss of consciousness may occur.

You should contact your veterinarian as soon as your pet notices problems with urination. Treatment includes taking anti-inflammatory and antibacterial drugs and a special diet. The diagnosis is made based on test results and ultrasound. Cystone helps stimulate diuresis by relaxing the smooth muscles of the bladder - sand and small stones are removed from the body along with urine. Surgery may be required to remove large stones.

Composition and release form of Cyston

The drug is available in tablet form. Country - refers to homeopathic herbal medicines. Each tablet contains the following components:

• fava bean seed extract;
• extract of rhizomes of syta membranous;
• strawflower seed extract;
• teak seed extract;
• onosma bracts extract;
• Tribulus terrestris fruit extract;
• saxifraga extract;
• extract of flowers of the double stem;
• aromatic pavonia extract;
• Vernonia ash extract;
• sweet basil extract;
• horsetail extract.

All these extracts have a complex effect: anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, mild diuretic, and also increase blood flow to the pelvic organs. In addition, the extracts together can reduce the concentration of calcium and oxalic acid in the urine - as a result of this action, the risk of developing urolithiasis is reduced. If there are already stones, taking Cyston on a regular basis helps crush them and turn them into sand, after which they come out (the exact result depends on the nature of the stones and their size).

Analogs and price

Analogs of Cyston for cats are:

• Canephron is produced in Germany in the form of drops;
• urolesan alcohol-based solution, used for the prevention and treatment of inflammation in the renal and urinary systems;
• phytolysin per animal is given from 5 to 20 drops daily, depending on its age.

You can buy Cyston for cats both in special veterinary and regular pharmacies. Its price is from 350 to 500 rubles.

General information about Cyston

The drug is dispensed in the form of tablets for oral use. The tablets are yellow-brown in color and are packaged in plastic packaging of 100 pieces.

The composition of the medicine includes such components as an extract from the stems of saxifraga, madder, the flower part of the double-carp, seeds of the rough strawflower, and the roots of the membranous plant. Additionally, the composition of Cyston is enriched with verninia ash, mumiyo, onosma bracts, basic, mimosa and horsetail.

Madder not only relieves inflammation, but also has a beneficial effect on the pet’s reproductive system

It is believed that madder for cats not only relieves inflammation, but also has a beneficial effect on the reproductive system.

This composition allows you to have a beneficial effect on the urinary system and kidneys, protecting and relieving the animal from infectious lesions and inflammation. If necessary, used to treat dogs and cats of any breed after consultation with a veterinarian.

Plant components crush fractions, soften them and remove them along with urine, causing a minimum of discomfort

Cystone does not interfere with the mechanisms of action of other medications, so the tablets can be combined with any group of medications if the individual’s condition requires it. An exception may be diuretics, which contain the same components. Their combination increases the risk of side effects and overdose.

Cystone does not cause side effects when combined with other drugs

Pharmacological effects

This biological natural complex, after entering the animal’s body, affects its body as follows:

• reduces pain from cutting and pain syndromes when urinating;
• increases the effective effect of drugs that are used for antibacterial therapy and diuretics;
• normalizes cat urination;
• reduces the aggressive state of your pet and its excitability associated with pain in the genitourinary system.

The use of madder for the treatment of cats

Hello dear reader. My name is Victoria. I want to share my experience of treating my cat, who was sick with urolithiasis. I cured her with a plant usually used in the treatment of sick people - madder. I’ll tell you how it can be used to treat cats.

So, my cat started having problems: painful urination (when she sat in her litter tray, she started crying), the urine became cloudy, and fragments of blood appeared in it. Of course, we went to the veterinarian, he prescribed Cyston, No-shpu, food with Urinari food, and injections. After two weeks the cat felt better, but then everything returned again.

In general, nothing helped, looking at the cat was painful. What to do? I told my grandfather about the problem, and he advised me to buy madder extract at the pharmacy. So I bought and started giving this extract to my cat. Now she is quite healthy.

How to use madder to treat cats?

Madder is sold in a regular pharmacy, you can find it without problems and is not prohibitively expensive, at least cheaper than veterinary drugs. The extract is made from madder root.

Application is very simple. You need to take one tablet of madder extract and divide it into four parts. Take 25 ml of boiled, cooled water and add a crushed quarter of the tablet. The cat should be given this solution to drink. This can be done like this: take any syringe without a needle, fill it with a medicinal solution at the rate of 1 ml per 1 kg of the cat’s weight and inject it into the animal’s mouth. You need to drink this way twice a day.

If the case is advanced and the cat cannot urinate at all, the dose should be increased to 2 ml per 1 kg of weight and the medicine should be given three to four times a day. As soon as the cat begins to urinate, the dose should be reduced to 1 ml per kg of weight. The entire course of treatment should last up to one month. The prepared solution can be stored for no more than two days, after which a new solution must be made. The taste of the medicine is tolerable, but your cat may be unhappy with the procedure.

When can I see the result?

The first improvements in my cat came after just five days. Several months have passed, she is doing well, there have been no relapses. In any case, it is up to you to decide whether to use such a simple remedy or not. But even if you are overcome by doubts, I think it’s still worth a try and see what the result will be in a couple of days. It definitely won't get any worse.

About catheterization of cats

As for the catheter that veterinarians may suggest you use, you should know: in cats, the urethra is smaller in diameter and longer than in cats, so catheterization is much more painful. As a result, due to injury from the catheter and escaping sand, the mucous membrane of the urethra swells, and the urethra becomes even narrower. In this regard, if your cat has a catheter, you may not see quick results from using madder: the sand dissolved by the medicine is in the urine, and it is difficult for it to come out. And in general: you should be extremely careful with catheterization, because an inexperienced veterinarian can pierce the urethra with a catheter, and then the situation will worsen.

A few more nuances

I wrote above that the course of treatment is up to one month. But this is the minimum. It is better to treat for two months or more - the longer you treat, the less likely it is to relapse.

In addition, the doctor should prescribe you a hemostatic drug to prevent blood from escaping into the urethra and bladder. The doctor may also prescribe hormones or an antibiotic to relieve swelling in the urethra.

Yes, I’m just wondering how best to absorb this tablet: with food, without food, dilute with water or put half or 2 quarters in the mouth. No, your method will not suit us, there is no need to fix the cat, he is “plasticine”, the main thing is to catch up with him and grab him, and then he will not get away from me. The force of gravity, even lying upside down, apparently doesn’t work on ours))) He’s a little small, apparently his neck is narrow, and he’s also mouthy and forgets to swallow. I put the tablet (small or part of it) into the side of the mouth behind the lip and hold the muzzle so that it does not spit out. And injections are generally a holiday, he gives them better than execution with pills, I caught the cat, put him with his back to me, I’m broadcasting something like a radio, I hold it slightly and the syringe is in the crease on the withers, well, if I gape, I can run away, but this is not because injection, I’m just tired of sitting. Feeding is also simple: the cat has a regimen: when given, then he eats, we are in nature, food is not freely available, we have developed a scheme with the cat about 4-5 feedings a day every 4-5 hours, plus sour milk at night, if they gave him a lot, he doesn’t eat enough, if he wants to eat earlier than expected (this doesn’t happen often with us), he goes to sniff the mat in the feeding area, after 10 minutes we bring freshly cooked meatballs or pieces of meat. This makes 3-4 feedings (this is when I feed him), and one feeding at a time while I’m at work, instructing parents on what and when to give. I’m not against food, by no means, up to 10 months I ate Royal for kittens wet and dry, Origien did not fit (softens the stool), he loves dry food and it makes him more nourished, but the cat managed to choke on “adult” food, never with food for kittens , although he was younger, he had smaller pellets and never greedily attacked food. I’ll figure out toxoplasma (whether freezing prevents infection) or at the next blood draw I’ll ask you to test for toxoplasma and switch to raw meat. The Americans confused me with the mandatory heat treatment at an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for beef, veal, lamb, for poultry above 180.. Elsewhere on the same site they write - low temperature for 24 hours, and it seems that the bird is unlikely to be infected with toxo-. In general, I’m still studying. I just don’t want to run into this nonsense, then we will never be castrated at all.

Cyston for cats is a medicinal product consisting exclusively of natural ingredients. The medication has become widespread in the treatment of pets, due to the absence of severe toxic effects and the possibility of using the drug at a young age of the pet. Despite the natural composition of the drug, Cyston should only be prescribed by a veterinarian after assessing the severity of the cat or dog’s condition.

Cyston's analogues

Doctors speak well of the use of the drug, but do not rule out individual intolerance to it. In this case, you can use Cyston analogues, which also have a natural composition and have an anti-inflammatory effect.

For cats with individual intolerance to Cystone, the use of analogues is acceptable

Table 2. Cyston analogues

It is not recommended to use any anti-inflammatory capsules on animals, since adjusting the dose requires removing the enteric coating, which reduces the effectiveness of treatment several times.

Reviews about the use of Cyston

Owners of cats and dogs respond positively to the use of the drug. In most cases, the drug was used for the prevention and treatment of urolithiasis. Despite long-term therapy, which lasts at least 12 weeks, owners noted a rapid decrease in inflammation, improved urination, and a decrease in irritability and aggression in cats. In dogs, the results were similar.

In the vast majority of cases, therapy with the participation of Cyston was successful

The drug coped well with the consequences of taking antibacterial drugs, which is why pets sometimes had problems with their kidneys. A short course of administration and complete restoration of organ function without the absence of side effects were appreciated by approximately 90% of owners.

When eliminating inflammation in the kidneys of an infectious and non-infectious nature, as well as treating colic, additional use of antimicrobial medications or antispasmodics has always been required. In their absence, Cyston was unable to cope with the disturbance and the animal’s condition worsened or remained at the same level.

Kidney diseases require complex treatment; monotherapy with Cyston is not enough

Side effects have been reported in exceptional cases and are associated with individual intolerance or allergy to the components of the product. They usually manifested themselves in the form of itching, urticaria, nausea and diarrhea. They went away on their own after stopping Cyston or after taking an antihistamine.

Despite positive reviews for the treatment of a specific animal, Cyston should not be thoughtlessly used to eliminate the disease in all cats and dogs. It is important to exclude intolerance and allergies to the components of the medication and select doses taking into account the age and weight of the pet. Different individuals may have completely different reactions to the drug.

The owner must understand that cystone is not a panacea and approach its use wisely

Directions for use and dosage

Canephron often causes the development of an allergic reaction in the treatment of chronic renal failure. The medicine is prescribed to the pet 1 hour after eating. The herbal solution contains alcohol, so the dose prescribed by the veterinarian is diluted with 10 ml of liquid.

The pet will not be able to drink the drug from a spoon, so the medication is drawn into a 2 ml syringe, carefully inserted into the mouth and the solution is squeezed out. The dose of the medicine is determined taking into account the weight of the animal: the veterinarian prescribes 2 drops per 1 kg of the animal’s weight. The course of therapy is 30 days.

The drug in tablet form is difficult to give to a cat. The owner opens the pet’s mouth and places the required dose on the back of the tongue. After the procedure, you need to give the cat a small amount of liquid.

With ICD, the medicine is given throughout the animal’s life; the cat drinks ½ or ¼ tablet for 2 months, then take a break for 21 days.

Cystone's analogs

Urolesan is an analogue of the drug, so it can be prescribed as a replacement for the main drug.
If cats cannot be prescribed the pharmaceutical drug in question, veterinarians select a medicine that has a similar therapeutic effect. And usually an analogue is chosen from the following medications:

• "Urolesan";
• "Furagin";
• "Canephron";
• "Rovatinex".

Use of the drug Cyston for prophylactic purposes

Increasingly, when receiving poor urine test results, specialists prescribe the drug Cyston to patients. Reviews from medical workers and statistical data indicate the high preventive properties of the drug. Due to components that stabilize the composition of urine, the formation of stones is prevented or they are crushed in the early stages of formation. Kidney function is activated, sand or its components are removed from the body, causing virtually no discomfort to patients. A proper diet and a course of strengthening therapy prevent relapses. In addition, the drug "Cyston" is often prescribed to people who have undergone surgery in order to prevent the development of infection or foci of inflammation.

Problems with the lower part of the excretory system manifest themselves in behavioral signs at the earliest stages. The cat becomes apathetic and its appetite may change. The more the disease progresses, the more obvious the symptoms appear. In this regard, three symptomatic periods are distinguished: early, acute and critical. At the first stage, when sand and stones are already present in the bladder, urolithiasis in cats can be judged by the following signs:

• The pet goes to the toilet more often, and sometimes in the wrong places.
• Urination occurs in a tense position.
• While in the litter box, the cat meows from the pain caused by the stones.
• The presence of blood cells causes the urine to turn pink.
• The cat takes longer than usual to lick itself under its tail.

During the severe (acute) stage, these symptoms become even more obvious and others join them. The animal has urinary incontinence in a small volume, and the color of the liquid itself becomes more saturated. Urine acquires a specific unpleasant odor. Touching the belly causes pain in the cat. Body temperature jumps to 39-40 degrees.

In critical condition, the signs of urolithiasis worsen even more. The pet practically does not go to the toilet, and the urge causes severe attacks of pain. An overfilled bladder can lead to rupture and peritonitis. Viscous, foamy saliva is released from the mouth, and vomiting is possible. The temperature drops to 35-36 degrees. Body tremors and convulsions are added to apathy and lethargy. In the most severe cases, loss of consciousness is possible.

Indications for use

The medicine Cyston is indicated for use in the treatment of almost all known diseases of the human urinary system, but mainly as part of complex therapy (see cystitis in women).

• In postoperative periods, it is prescribed to prevent the formation of kidney stones
• In the presence of lithoisoxalate and phosphate stones
• Used in complex therapy for urethritis, pyelonephritis, pyelitis, infectious processes in the kidneys, and Cyston is also indicated for cystitis
• And also prophylactically in the remission stage of these diseases
• For stones formed by urates and uric acid
• In cases of urinary incontinence in women
• With crystalluria - the presence of sand in the urine
• For gout
• With sialolithiasis - stones in the ducts of the salivary glands
• For urinary disorders
• For attacks that accompany the excretion of uric acid

Due to the popularity of the medicine, the price of Cyston is low; you can buy it at any pharmacy, it costs 230-280 rubles. for 100 tablets. The price varies depending on the region and the specific pharmacy chain. Over a six-month treatment period, the patient will have to spend about 2,000 rubles, which is quite acceptable for a natural medicine.

Instructions for use and dosage in veterinary medicine

The drug "Cyston" can be used for kittens from 4 months of age. The dosage is distributed depending on the weight of the pet: up to 5 kg - 0.25 mg, from 5 kg - 0.5 mg. On the recommendation of a doctor, a single dose of the drug can be increased to 2 tablets - it all depends on the complexity of the disease. The tablets do not have a specific taste, so they can be mixed into the animal’s food, but this method may be ineffective due to the difficulty of determining the dose of the drug that has entered the animal.

To feed a cat with the drug, you must:

1. Gently tilt your pet's head back.
2. Unclench your jaws and place the tablet on the root of your tongue.
3. Hold your jaws and blow into the animal's nose to provoke a swallowing reflex.

For cystitis

For cystitis, 0.5 mg of the drug is prescribed 3 times a day. If the disease is accompanied by inflammation of an infectious nature, the single dose is increased to 1 g. Duration of administration is 4 weeks.

For urolithiasis

If the cat has stones in the bladder, Cyston is used 2 times a day, 100 mg. The course of therapy lasts from 2 to 6 months - it all depends on the speed at which stones move through the urinary tract.

What are the restrictions?

The drug is contraindicated for cats with intolerance to the components. In this case, allergic reactions of various types may occur. If the animal has a rash, redness and itching, stop further use of the drug. Ask your doctor for a different treatment.

It is not recommended to use the medication for pregnant females. In rare cases, use is permissible, but only after a comprehensive examination of the whole body.

The medication does not cause side effects even if the dose is exceeded. In the presence of large stones, the drug should be used with caution. The fact is that they can come out in large parts and clog the urinary tract or damage the bladder mucosa.

Important! If blood appears in your cat's urine or urination becomes difficult, consult a doctor immediately.

Prevention of urinary system diseases in cats

Diseases of this group in cats are quite heterogeneous, and, accordingly, their prevention will also vary.

To prevent cystitis in cats, for example, you should not change the location of the tray. Your cat should always have free access to drinking water. If you have more than one cat, then each one should have a personal tray. Even if your pet relieves itself outside, there should still be a litter box indoors.

Prevention of urolithiasis involves proper nutrition of the cat. To do this, you need to avoid feeding your cat food rich in salts. This includes fish, milk, seafood, mineral supplements, etc. Vitamins must be present in the diet. It is better not to give hard drinking water to your cat.

It is also necessary to reduce the animal's consumption of dry food. However, this only applies to cheap foods such as Kitekat, Darling, Whiskas, Katinka, Friskies, etc. Expensive foods, on the contrary, are balanced products that can prevent the appearance of urolithiasis in cats.

You should also remember that timely diagnosis is the key to the long life and health of your ward. Therefore, visit the veterinarian at least once every six months in order to identify the disease in time and begin its treatment in the early stages.

Prevention of cystitis in dogs

Cystitis in dogs is a very painful condition that does not go away in one day.

To reduce the risk of developing an unpleasant pathology in your pet, you must adhere to the following rules:

• Give your animal clean, fresh water in unlimited quantities. Access to a bowl of water should be available around the clock.
• Protect your pet from stressful situations.
• Control drafts. Do not allow your dog to lie in the cold or in places exposed to drafts.
• For prevention, take your dog to the veterinarian 2-3 times a year.
• The animal should not tolerate the urge to go to the toilet. You need to walk 3-4 times a day. For small breed dogs, you need to provide a tray or disposable diaper.
• Follow your vaccination schedule.
• Use medicinal brands of food as recommended by veterinarians.
• For hygienic purposes, long-haired dogs have the hair around the anus carefully trimmed.
• Walk female dogs during heat with caution. Avoid habitats of stray animals.
• To avoid injury, do not allow pets to jump from heights.
• After bathing, the animal should be kept in a warm room.

Schemes for using Cystone

The drug is very easy to use, but requires special treatment regimens. Let's look at how to take cystone in tablets for various diseases.

Cystitis

Cystitis as an infectious inflammatory disease of the urinary tract requires a course of treatment with antibiotics. Without them, there can be no talk of complete recovery. Therefore, Cyston, in accordance with the instructions for use for cystitis, is prescribed exclusively as part of complex therapy.

Cystitis cannot be cured with this herbal preparation alone, especially in the acute period of the disease and in the presence of pain. The drug is started to be taken in parallel with antibacterial agents, and after their discontinuation the course is continued for at least another month and a half.

How to treat cystitis

The treatment regimen should be prescribed by a veterinarian, taking into account the root cause of cystitis, the age and condition of the animal, the severity of the disease and symptoms. Most often, hospitalization is not required; treatment is carried out by the owner at home, but only after examination and prescriptions from a veterinarian.

First aid

Before the medical examination, the dog is placed in a warm room. If an animal is kept outside, it is moved into a home. It is necessary to calm the pet and ensure complete rest. The dog is given a lot of fluid and stopped feeding. This will help cleanse the animal's bladder and reduce the concentration of urine.

Basic treatment measures

The treatment regimen is prescribed to each dog individually and may include the following measures:

1. Placement of a catheter in a clinical setting to improve urine flow.
2. Prescribing antispasmodics and painkillers to relieve pain and discomfort during urination.
3. Antibiotic therapy. Prescribed for cystitis of an infectious nature.
4. Prescribing diuretics to improve urine flow and prevent stagnation.
5. Surgical intervention. In the presence of stones, polyps and diverticula.
6. Rinsing the bladder with antiseptics (in a clinical setting).
7. Prescription of urological antiseptics (orally).
8. Special drinking regime.
9. Special diet.
10. Sedatives.
11. Hemostatic therapy for hemorrhagic cystitis.

What you need to know about cystitis

So, we have already said that any inflammatory process in the bladder is cystitis. If the dog is healthy, the bladder is a completely sterile environment. If pathogenic organisms (bacteria, fungal spores, viruses) enter the bladder, inflammation occurs.

They can enter the bladder in two ways:

1. Descending . From the kidneys or through the circulatory system.
2. Rising . Bacteria travel up the urethra from the dog's prostate, anus, or genitals.

Causes of cystitis

The main cause is a bacterial infection. In addition, cystitis is caused by:

• general hypothermia of the animal's body;
• urolithiasis disease;
• nephritis and pyelonephritis;
• polyps and neoplasms (benign and malignant);
• diverticulum (sac-like depression) in the wall of the bladder;
• severe stress;
• endometritis and vaginitis (in a girl’s dog);
• catheterization in violation of sanitation standards;
• abdominal injuries in the perineal area.

Types of pathology

Depending on the cause of cystitis, it happens:

1. Bacterial (infectious).
2. Non-infectious.

Classification according to the speed of the disease:

Cystitis is divided according to the type of inflammation:

1. Hemorrhagic . Occurs as a result of bladder injuries and surgical interventions.
2. Ossifying . Complication due to metastasis processes.
3. Polypoid . Polyps are detected in the bladder.
4. Eosinophilic . Causes of pathology: allergies, helminths, fungi, microbes.
5. Emphysematous . The reason is the activity of pathogenic microorganisms that produce gases.

Also, the disease can be primary (self-developing) or secondary (complication of another pathology).

Why is cystitis dangerous?

If pathologies are not detected and treated promptly, dogs may experience the following complications:

• inflammation will become chronic;
• renal failure;
• urinary incontinence;
• hypertension and heart failure.

It is important to carefully monitor the condition and behavior of your pet. In case of atypical behavior and the appearance of alarming symptoms, the dog should be shown to a veterinarian.
