Abstract

In the article the question of the effectiveness of treatment of domestic cats with urolithiasis which a preparation containing glucosamine hydrochloride was used in the scheme of therapeutic interventions (Uri–Easy). According to the research, it was found that the treatment regimen with the use of drug Uri–Easy containing glucosamine hydrochloride, promotes more rapid clinical recovery of the animals, as well as the dissolution of crystals of calcium tripelfosfat glycosaminoglycans and increasing concentration in urine. This is confirmed by the fact that the 14 day treatment the animals in the second group with glucosamine hydrochloride concentration glycosaminoglycan in urine was lower by 12.3% than that in healthy cats with only single crystals of calcium tripelfosfat encountered in urine sediment. In the first group of glycosaminoglycans content in urine on day 14 were 62.6% lower than the clinically healthy cats, the precipitate thus maintained a moderate amount of calcium tripelfosfat crystals. In this second group of glycosaminoglycan concentration on the 14th day it was closer to normal, and only a few crystals were observed in urine. Thus, we can say that the introduction to the treatment regimen of the drug containing glucosamine hydrochloride, to accelerate healing cats with urolithiasis, which is confirmed by laboratory tests.
