About HYALURONIC ACID
Hyaluronic acid is a naturally occurring substance found in the connective tissues, skin, and joint fluids of both humans and animals, including pets like cats and dogs. It functions primarily to retain moisture, lubricate joints, and support skin health. In veterinary medicine, hyaluronic acid is used in supplements and treatments aimed at improving joint function and alleviating arthritis symptoms in pets. Regarding safety, hyaluronic acid is generally considered safe for cats and dogs when administered in appropriate dosages. It has a low risk of toxicity and adverse effects. However, as with any supplement or medication, it is important to consult with a veterinarian before administering hyaluronic acid to ensure it is appropriate for the specific health needs and conditions of the pet.
