Cats and dogs can undergo significant metabolic changes when recovering from surgery, illness or injury. While under these stressful conditions, your pet is challenged to maintain their strong natural defenses which makes it even more important to feed the right food to help your pet bounce back from these tough situations.
Hill’s nutritionists and veterinarians developed Prescription Diet a/d, clinically tested nutrition specially formulated for dogs and cats recovering from surgery, illness or injury so you can feel confident you are giving your pet your best.

How it works:

High levels of digestible protein and fat to support recovery
Smooth, soft, moist and thixotropic consistency, stirring makes it more liquid, to enable multiple feeding options
Clinically proven antioxidants to support immune function & healing

How it helps:

Energy dense and rich in calories to provide the energy needed during recovery
Exceptional taste to encourage eating
Maximum flexibility in feeding - by hand, bowl, spoon, syringe or tube - to deliver the essential nutrients critically ill pets need
Bolsters immune system and supports your pet's natural ability to heal
