Product Description:
Dasuquin for Cats contains the trademarked ingredients NMX1000™ avocado/soybean unsaponifiables (ASU), FCHG49^® glucosamine hydrochloride, and TRH122^® low molecular weight chondroitin sulfate. It’s available in a tasty, easy to administer capsule with natural chicken and tuna flavors.

The glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate support cartilage production and help block enzymes in joints that break down cartilage, and the ASU complements their effects for more comprehensive joint health support. Our trademarked glucosamine hydrochloride, chondroitin sulfate and avocado/soybean unsaponifiables together were shown in cell studies to be better than the combination of glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate alone at inhibiting expression of several agents involved in cartilage breakdown.

FAQ
What is Dasuquin?
Dasuquin from Nutramax Laboratories, Inc. is a joint health supplement for cats that goes beyond standard glucosamine supplements. It contains the trademarked ingredients NMX1000™* avocado/soybean unsaponifiables (ASU), FCHG49^®* glucosamine hydrochloride, and TRH122^®* low molecular weight chondroitin sulfate in a natural chicken and tuna flavored capsule. It is the most complete joint support supplement available.

What role do the glucosamine hydrochloride and low molecular weight chondroitin sulfate play?
The combination of the trademarked glucosamine hydrochloride and low molecular weight chondroitin sulfate supports cartilage production and helps block enzymes in joints that break down cartilage. These ingredients together have been shown in published studies to protect joint cartilage better than either ingredient alone. A greater than additive effect, known as a “synergistic” effect, on cartilage cells was seen using this glucosamine and low molecular weight chondroitin sulfate together.

What is ASU, and how does it work?
ASU stands for avocado/soybean unsaponifiables, an ingredient concentrated directly from avocados and soybeans that is used for joint health. Studies using cartilage cells have shown that ASU lowers the expression or production of several compounds involved in the process of cartilage breakdown in joints. ASU complements the positive effects of the other active ingredients in Dasuquin. The glucosamine in Dasuquin is synergistic with low molecular weight chondroitin sulfate and has been shown in cartilage cell studies to be synergistic with ASU. Having ASU in the Dasuquin formula is also beneficial as the trademarked avocado/soybean unsaponifiables, glucosamine hydrochloride and low molecular weight chondroitin sulfate together were shown in cell studies to be better than the combination of glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate alone at inhibiting expression of several agents involved in the breakdown of cartilage.

How do I know if my cat needs Dasuquin?
It may be a good time to ask your veterinarian about Dasuquin if you notice that your cat is less eager to jump or play or otherwise appears less mobile. Your veterinarian will examine your cat to determine if he/she could benefit from Dasuquin. If your veterinarian has already recommended Dasuquin, the sooner it is started the more opportunity your pet will have to respond. Your veterinarian may also suggest using Dasuquin as a protective measure.

My cat has been taking a joint health supplement product. How is Dasuquin different?
Dasuquin is a joint health supplement containing the powerful ingredient ASU along with glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate. ASU works along with glucosamine and chondroitin sulfate to support your pet’s joints. In fact, research has shown that the combination of glucosamine/chondroitin sulfate plus ASU works better than glucosamine/chondroitin sulfate alone!

What should I look for when giving Dasuquin?
Observe your cat closely, and notice whether your cat seems more comfortable doing those activities he/she seemed reluctant doing or had some trouble doing previously. Changes in your cat’s comfort level may occur gradually. Allow time for your cat to respond. It may take 4-6 weeks, though some cats may respond sooner.

Are there any safety concerns with Dasuquin?
Dasuquin has been evaluated in a safety study in cats, and no adverse effects were noted from administration. There are no known contraindications or known interactions between Dasuquin and any drug or nutritional supplement.

Suzanne (2009-06-18)	My 13 year old, Maggie, suffered from recurring bladder infections which improved greatly after starting her on Dasuquin. She also eats a prescription,canned food only diet. Pets Truly has a better price than my vet and the customer service has been flawless.
Amy (2009-05-22)	My 7-year-old cat had begun limping a bit on one of her front legs, and the vet recommended Dasuquin. Within about three weeks of use, I noticed her limp had significantly improved, and as such, she is able to run more easily and generally seems more agile.
Ronnie (2009-04-29)	My 3 yr old cat was bo with arthritic knees on his back legs. He never jumped like a normal cat, hardly played with his brother; he just stayed low. Vet recommended Dasuquin(which I give him once a day)and he`s like a new cat. He`s jumping and running and playing and it is so good to see. Now his brother has a real playmate.
Ramona (2009-04-11)	I am thrilled at the difference I see in my 15 year old. before Dasuquin, Tigerlily was unable to jump up on the bed and dragged her hind legs going up the stairs. Now she runs and plays and is back to her adorible affectionate self. She has not had a recurrence of her feline cystitis since starting on Dasuquin. Thank you for giving me some more quality time with my Tigerlily.
Cindy (2009-04-07)	Dasuquin seems to be helping my kitty who expresses himself emotionally via marking his spots in our house. I was very happy to find this on your site less expensive than buying it at the vets. And the shipping was very quick- thank you !
Leona (2009-03-18)	My 16 year old cat Bridget has arthritis and Dasuquin has been very helpful in her walking. she is no longer stiff when she walks.
Roberta (2009-03-04)	I, too, have a Teddy, but he`s almost nine. It`s amazing that Dasuquin seems to tout its effectiveness for joint health, when most of us give it to our cats for urinary tract health. The product has helped Teddy immensely, and I can only feel that it will serve as a prophylactic for joint problems as he ages.
Lynn (2009-02-24)	My 4 year old cat Katie has a recurring problem with struvite crystals in her bladder. My vet prescribed Dasuquin to help her maintain a healthy bladder lining. I honestly don`t know if it helps her because she`s been on it since I got her at the age of 2yrs., but other vets have suggested the same treatment for her problem. I am very happy I am able to get this product through Petstruly.com at a lower price than through the vet though, because she will be on it for life.
Victor (2009-02-17)	My 18 year old cat was on Dasuquin as recomended by our vet, and was doing very well. I`m even doing better than he was now that I can get his dasuquin from you folks at half the price our vet was charging.I not only can recommend Dasuquin, I can also recommend buying it from Petstruly.com
madeline (2009-01-29)	My 5 year old cat TEDDY had bladder problems. My vet recommended giving him Dasuquin on a daily basis. He has improved since than and seems to be much better and more himself since being on Dasaquin. Thanks for a wonderful product.
Diane (2009-01-22)	My 18 year old Cat Morty, had been on another joint med. until a few weeks ago....we started with Dasuguin...He has made a major improvement....I am thrilled...and so is he...he gets around so much better, has retu ed to my lap..before he was not comfortable..he looks better and his fur is much better too...thank you for this product!!
