My colleagues and I at the Schwarzman Animal Medical Center spend a great deal of time carefully prescribing medication for pets. Our goal is to return your pet to the best state of health possible—but sometimes that requires a complicated medication schedule. I know medication administration can be frustrating to pet owners. Sticking to a complicated schedule can be a challenge. In this blogpost, I want to explain why some medications must be given in very specific ways—and why those instructions matter.

This year’s theme for World Kidney Day (March 13) is “Are your kidneys OK? Detect early, protect kidney health.” The veterinary staff of the Schwarzman Animal Medical Center supports that sentiment entirely. Inspired by my colleagues’ work on protecting kidney health, today’s blogpost provides a “kidney primer,” curated from previous blogposts, to help pet families understand kidney disease and its treatment.
