Blood Chemistry Table
When giving your dog any medication or dietary supplement, the dogs safety is paramount. As the makers of RejuvenatePlus, we share your same commitment to safety. The amino acid contained in our product has been used as a human dietary supplement for over 15 years, and its safety record is unblemished. However, to ensure the safety of RejuvenatePlus in dogs, we performed a clinical trial under the supervision of Dr. Andrew Kliewer, DVM. In his trial dogs were administered RejuvenatePlus for 30 days. Blood samples and clinical evaluations were performed on the dogs both prior to and immediately following the 30-day trial. The results of the blood analysis are shown in the table below. The blood tests show that RejuvenatePlus has no detrimental effects on blood chemistry, kidney or liver function.
