Cystophan is manufactured by Protexin. This product contains glucosamine, hyaluronic acid, and tryptophan in forms that are believed to be particularly helpful in protecting the bladder wall. It also has a tempting chicken flavour to make it palatable to cats.

A healthy urinary tract is one of the most important indications that your cat is healthy. The interactions between several body systems including the bladder and nervous systems can affect your cat’s urinary health. External influences in today’s busy environment can also affect your cat’s state of mind.

Normal healthy bladders have a layer of glycosaminoglycan (GAG) coating them. This layer protects the bladder from direct exposure to urine. Urine activates sensory nerve fibers which the brain perceives as uncomfortable. Cystophan helps to support and preserve the protective glycosaminoglycan (GAG) layer of the bladder.  It also contains L-tryptophan which is used in the brain to make serotonin, the happy hormone.

What's Inside Protexin Cystophan?

• N-acetyl D-glucosamine - It acts as a building block for GAGs.
• Hyaluronic acid  - That's one of the main components of the protective GAG layer that lines the bladder.
• L-tryptophan - This is converted to serotonin, the happy hormone.
• Artificial chicken flavouring - It improves palatability and compliance.
