Elura, Appetite Stimulant

It seems to be an effective product. I researched the web, prior to using it, regarding how long it takes for it to work. Estimates were 1 to 2 hours, but my cat

It seems to be an effective product. I researched the web, prior to using it, regarding how long it takes for it to work. Estimates were 1 to 2 hours, but my cat responded in 20 minutes the first time, and quicker than that afterward. His kidney condition progressed and I only was able to use the Elura for about 3 or 4 doses before he passed, but I was happy with the response he had from the Elura.

Lifesaver for my cat!

My cat Pepe is in third stage renal failure. Elura gives him such a good appetite, that he begs for his food. Before Elura, I could barely get him to eat anything

My cat Pepe is in third stage renal failure. Elura gives him such a good appetite, that he begs for his food. Before Elura, I could barely get him to eat anything. It has been a lifesaver addition to our kidney routine. Pepe just turned 20 on Christmas Day. He would not have made it without adding Elura.

Made my cat “foam at mouth”

Unfortunately it makes my cat “foam at the mouth” and/or a lot of heavy saliva. I’ve tried it 3 separate times with the same results. fyi: my cat is a 25 year old

Unfortunately it makes my cat “foam at the mouth” and/or a lot of heavy saliva. I’ve tried it 3 separate times with the same results. fyi: my cat is a 25 year old male with 3rd stage chronic renal failure. This prescription was to help his appetite. I had used the enclosed syringe. It works but a different way (for me) to get the medicine into the tube. was really hoping this would help. It’s quite pricey-about $50.00

Bad Taste? Ok product.

My cat absolutely hates the taste of this stuff, I think it works 90% of the time but I have recently stopped giving it to her because she hates the taste so much

My cat absolutely hates the taste of this stuff, I think it works 90% of the time but I have recently stopped giving it to her because she hates the taste so much that I feel bad since she is already sick with CKD. I think it is a great product if your cat will tolerate the taste, worked for my cat for a little bit but she still cannot get over the taste.

So far so good

I was a little nervous to try this given some of the reviews. However, as pharmacy technician, I know that sometimes meds have unfortunate side effects in small numbers of patients. And I can’t keep seeing my CKD kitty waste away not eating. I gave her half a dose to start and watched her closely for a few hours to be safe (you should watch them closely when starting any new medication anyway). She immediately tried going to eat some old food I left out before work lol. I gave her fresh food of course and I woke up to her wet food gone and a good portion of her dry food as well, even with the lower dose. No negative immediate side effects so far. I’m very pleased. Hopefully things continue to go smoothly and she won’t lose a ton of weight again!

Overall Really Good product but mixed review.

I used this product for my cat with inappetance due to IBD. While she was mostly on mirtazapine and it worked for her, there were times that the mirtazapine wasn't

I used this product for my cat with inappetance due to IBD. While she was mostly on mirtazapine and it worked for her, there were times that the mirtazapine wasn't effective anymore. I supplemented with Elura for a short time each time that happened. I found Elura to be a lot more gentle on the system and found it didn't cause her to overstimulate (and constantly vocalize). A definite plus; on the other hand, I don't think Elura is quite as effective as mirtazapine even though I know other people swear by it.

Immediate!!! RESULTS!

I was thrilled with this medicine. I gave it to my cat. D, G, she has CKD and she is eating but not a lot but needs to gain more. Weight. She literally ate 1/4

I was thrilled with this medicine. I gave it to my cat. D, G, she has CKD and she is eating but not a lot but needs to gain more. Weight. She literally ate 1/4 cup of dry food. Also some wet food too very easy to give gentle on the stomach. I am thrilled. I highly recommend this to all pet owners with a cat that is a finicky. Eater and has chronic kidney disease.

My cat hated the taste

My cat hated it. It did work for a few days until he got so mad he quit eating altogether. Ended up almost dying. I had to get him fluids at the vet and hand

My cat hated it. It did work for a few days until he got so mad he quit eating altogether. Ended up almost dying. I had to get him fluids at the vet and hand feed him wet food to save his life. I am not using this product again with him.

This medication should be pulled off the market

I thought I would try this for my cat to stimulate his appetite. Within 5 minutes of giving it to him, he could barely walk and went to this dish and stayed there

I thought I would try this for my cat to stimulate his appetite. Within 5 minutes of giving it to him, he could barely walk and went to this dish and stayed there for 10 minutes nibbling at the food but very lethargic. Then he just sat in one spot and stared into space. This is NOT what we need to get our cats to eat. Its ridiculous and dangerous and they need to ban this medication. I am sticking to Mirtaz.

I don't think this really did anything

My cat hated it so much, was drooling and foaming from the mouth. I didn't see any increase in his appetite while on this medication. It was a horrible experience

My cat hated it so much, was drooling and foaming from the mouth. I didn't see any increase in his appetite while on this medication. It was a horrible experience for both him and I to give this medication.
