A compensation for maldigestion, reduction of intestinal absorptive disorders, Chronic Exocrine Pancreatic Insufficiency, for nutritional restoration and convalescence.
Also for use with:
✔ Gastritis/Enteritis/Colitis
✔ Megacolon
✔ Inflammatory Bowel Disease
✔ To support recovery after digestive surgery, disease or period of anorexia.
Key Benefits & Characteristics:
- High levels of essential nutrients promotes nutritional restoration
- High digestive tolerance with carefuly selected quality ingredients with high percentage of animal origin to provide high protein and fat digestibility
- High energy density and concentrations of essential nutrients allows needs to be met even when small rations are fed
- Increases ater intake for optimal water turnover and helps to compensate for fluid losses
HIGH IN PROTEIN: 13%
LOW IN CARBOHYDRATE: 2%
Dogs and cats are carnivores regardless of their health status. The VETERINARY HPM Clinical Diets are based on a formulation high in protein and low in carbohydrate (HP-LC), of which 87% of the protein is of animal origin.

How do I switch from my current food to VETERINARY HPM® ?
Days 1 and 2 should consist of 75% current food & 25% VETERINARY HPM. Days 3 & 4 - 50% current food and 50% VETERINARY HPM, Days 5 & 6 - 25% current food and 75% VETERINARY HPM, Day 7 100% VETERINARY HPM.
How much should I feed my pet?
VETERINARY HPM® is very palatable, but we advise you respect the daily rations recommended. Feeding guidelines can be found on every bag, but your vet or vet nurse can provide you with a feeding guide tailored for your pet.
My pet is drinking more. Is this normal?
A dog should drink 50-70ml/kg of their bodyweight each day. Thanks to VETERINARY HPM’s higher amount of protein compared to other dry foods, your pet will naturally consume more water - that's a good thing!
Where is VETERINARY HPM® produced?
VETERINARY HPM® is produced in our own factory in France, specifically in Vauvert, since 1988. For over 30 years we continue to work hard to meet the very high expectations of pet owners for food quality, traceability and safety.
