Product Overview

Epakitin is a nutritional supplement that works to slow the progression of chronic kidney disease and aiding overall function of the kidneys. Shown to be safe and palatable for animals, it acts as a phosphate binder to protect the kidneys.
At the first sign of CRF symptoms, Epakitin can be used in conjunction with a diet low in phosphorus. Epakitin can be given with regular food for animals who won't eat a diet low in phosphorus.
Epakitin is a nutritional supplement that supports kidney function in cats and dogs and slows down the progression of chronic kidney disease and renal failure by limiting the phosphorus absorption from the intestines.
Epakitin should be administered to cats and dogs only.
Epakitin can:
  • Help slow kidney disease progression
  • Limit the absorption of phosphorus in intestines
  • Be easily administered thanks to its palatable taste
Epakitin binds to phosphates, which then decreases phosphate levels in the blood to aid in slowing kidney disease that is chronic.
Epakitin has no known side effects. If your pet exhibits negative side effects while taking this medication, contact your veterinarian immediately.
  • Lactose
  • Calcium Carbonate
  • Chitosan
  • Hydrolyzed Soy Protein.
Immediately contact your closest emergency animal hospital.
Epakitin is intended for use in cats and dogs only, as a nutritional supplement. Provide ample water for your pet when administering this medication.

Good Stuff

Epakitin with Azodyl seems to be really doing a great job on our dog's renal failure. Will be retesting her to see what the lab results say, but she is certainly feeling better.

C L Verified Purchase

Epakitin DOES pull down the phosphorus levels, I have seen it reflected in my cat's bloodwork. This becomes important particularly for cats or dogs with renal problems, especially if they won't always eat their proper renal diet. Non-renal diets usually have higher phosphorus so Epakitin helps bind with phosphorus to pass it thru their systems. It is NOT a substitute for a renal diet, and you should ALWAYS consult with your veterinarian first. But used according to directions, it can definitely be part of your and your vet's "arsenal" of helpful treatments to keep your cat or dog feeling better.

It has done wonders for my 15yr old Siamese cat that has kidney disease!! Poor guy ended up on my door step, abandoned, declawed and starving and he ended up being the sweetest cat once we got all of his medical issues sorted.

It really helps my kidney cat. Magical effect quickly. Epakitin binds to the phosphorus and leaves their body when they go to the bathroom. Phosphorus is the kidney cat's enemy.

My dog wouldn't eat the prescription diet for kidney care. She eats her old favorite food with this phosphorous blocker mixed in. Without Epakitin, I'd be struggling to get her to eat safely!

This product has really turned my cat around. Within a week of starting this, he was back to his old self.

This is my second cat with CKD and I used this product on my other cat. It works great if used correctly and definitely helped my last cat of almost 20 years old.

Alisha F Verified Purchase

Amazing product at an amazing price. My 13 year old lab has to take this medication twice a day. And, as the dosage of this medication is based on her weight, she can go through a bottle of this medication rather quickly. I can purchase a 300gm bottle of Epakitin through Allivet for less than the cost of purchasing two 60gm bottles of Epakitin at my vet's office.

Lori R Verified Purchase

My vet suggested Epakitin for my dog who had renal failure, I stared using it about 7 years age along with Azodyl. I believe these products are the reason he's still here and doing great, really aids in digestion. I am also so happy I discovered Allivet, there prices are great and always have the things I need in stock.

Joyce K Verified Purchase

My vet recommended this for our senior kitty just entering into renal issues. It has actually helped her regain some body mass and improved her weight. She doesn't seem to mind it at all mixed in with her canned food :).

My vet ran out of Epakitin. My cat has missed 3 days dosage. I got a prescription from the vet for it and called around to local pharmacies and none of them have it. I'm so happy I could order it from Allivet.

Gregory K Verified Purchase

Epakitin & Azodyl, along with diet/vet care, are responsible for the quality of life that our 11 year old shar-pei has enjoyed for the past 18 months. Kaasa was diagnosed with chronic renal failure in 2014. Her current blood levels are normal or within 20% and holding. Also, we are trying Aventi KS & may phase out Azodyl if she reacts favorably. Not cheap but we lost her 'brother' Rufus suddenly to this condition in 2013. We had a different vet then, was blindsided by his steep decline & not made aware of either product. Thank you sooo much to our new veterinarian, Dr.Brian Butzer in Boca Raton FL!

My cat's phosphorus levels were alarmingly high due to his kidney issues. I started him on this product 2 wks. ago and he is already showing much lower levels of phosphorus in his system. My vet was very pleased.

This awesome ingredient has helped prolong the health and the life of my cat. No added taste, so mixing in with her canned Rx food goes undetected, and she eagerly takes up her morning and evening dose easily. Thanks Allivet for the best price on the net!

This supplement was recommended by my vet for the two very old cats in my household who have borderline renal function issues. I did a fair amount of online research and believe it to be a very good all-around supplement (cat or dog), and I was very pleased with Allivet's price which beat all competitors hands down. The shipping was super-fast (with tracking) and I appreciated Allivet's emails updating me on the progress of my order. Great customer service! Great company!

I've been using this with my 2 yr old Belgium Malanois(70 lb's) for 1 month after she suddenly developed kidney failure. Her BUN was 65 and her cret.# was 3.6. Both were in the completely normal range after 1 month. (11 BUN & 1.3 CRET) I also have her on Azodyl. & Miracle probiotic. And Hills science diet K/D. I can't say which one if not the combo of all are working. But I am not changing her regime it's working and I'm more then pleased. I feel blessed. Best of luck to each of you who are struggling with a pet with this or any issue.
