DOG & CAT NUTRITION
Compare representative over-the-counter and veterinary therapeutic foods by exact formula. This library organizes label information; it does not select the best food or replace a veterinary nutrition plan.
These foods are not prescription drugs. “Veterinary authorization” identifies therapeutic diets manufacturers or sellers restrict to veterinary oversight. Never substitute an OTC food—or another therapeutic food—for the prescribed formula without asking the veterinarian. “Food company” identifies the company responsible for or owning the listed brand; the physical manufacturing facility may vary by product and should be confirmed on the current package.
Therapeutic treats are not universally compatible. Use a listed treat only after confirming that its manufacturer and your veterinarian consider it compatible with the animal’s exact diet.
Select up to four for side-by-side comparison. The catalog is a current manufacturer-verified reference, not a permanent claim that every product remains available. Duplicate entries are removed by company, brand, formula, and species.
