What is PAW Denosyl? Denosyl (S-adenosylmethionine) is given to dogs and cats who are unable to produce sufficient quantities of it themselves. In healthy animals the liver forms S-adenosylmethionine from methione. In cases of liver damage or liver dysfunction, the animal may no longer be able to produce enough.
How is PAW Denosyl used? 90mg tablets are best suited to pets 6kg and under. A higher 225mg dosage tablet is also available for larger pets. Pets under 6kg will usually take one tablet every two to three days.
Denosyl tablets should be given one hour before eating. If being used to treat cats, the tablets should be administered with a small amount of water to avoid the tablet getting caught in the throat. Denosyl tablets should not be broken as the enteric coating prevents the breakdown of the tablet in the stomach.
