Purraise. 12. Lysine is touted as "immunity support" which is why I figured it was "immunity boosting", I was wrong I guess in thinking that. However, lysine on various sites for FIV does not mention solely and only herpes but that lysine helps secondary infections in general. I don't even know with 100% certainty that my mom's FIV-positive cat ...
Texas. We give our cats the powdered Lysine from Vitacost. Just a heaping 1/4 t equals 500mg. It dissolves easily in water, so I add a little water to wet food and mix to combine. I try to buy it while it's buy one get one half off of Vitacost brand items. Vitacost L-Lysine Powder -- 435 mg - 1 lb (454 g) - Vitacost. May 27, 2017.
My cat got into and basically ate an entire bag of lysine treats - 120 chews. He vomited quite a bit, but I called the vet, and they said he'd be fine. In fact, we took him for his dental the next day. The toxic level of lysine is crazy high - I don't remember the number, but 120 chews of 125mg each wasn't even close. And your kitty threw them ...
Texas. The maintenance dose is 500mg a day, or 250 mg twice a day. For flare ups, the dose is 1000mg, or 500mg twice daily. Since Lysine is an amino acid, it passes through the kitty's system as it urinates, so it's important to keep the supply in the cat's system, hence the twice a day dosing. If you're using the powder, 1/4 teaspoon = 435 mg ...
My cats are all on 500mg a day, and double that during flare, which puts them at 1000mg/day; including the little one, who is 10lbs. Lysine is an amino-acid, and the excess will be expelled by the urine; it is very hard for you to make her overdose on lysine. I am glad Lysine is working - that is a big indication that her problem is indeed ...
If there is propylene glycol listed do not buy that brand, find the purer form of L-Lysine. Propylene Glycol is used also in the manufacturing of antifreeze and can cause harm to cats when given to them. buying from a health food store will allow you to find the purer form which will not harm your cat at all.

L-Lysine is an immune booster, it boosts the immune system, so a kitty that has health issues, that lower the immune system, would benefit, from L-Lysine. Its the same with humans, a young child or elderly person, would have a lower immune system, and thus, their exposure, to some issues, would be detremental to them, whereas a healthy human ...
Primal freeze dried turkey has lysine. My little herpes guy has been getting lysine now for almost three years, I use pure lysine powder (Carlson's, available at Vitamin Shoppe, $9.). I tasted it, it's only slightly salty. Since I feed both cats several times a day, I split up the dose, 500 mg during a flare up, 250 mg for maintenance.
55. Purraise. 28. encino34 said: Both my cats are on 2x 500mg treat tabs daily but half the time refuse to eat them. I've tried putting them in their food and breaking them up but its left behind. I use Duralactin L-Lysine Paste for felines. You can get this from your vet but I buy it from Amazon much cheaper.
Or mineral supplements, such as adding the iron/Bvitamin complex nutritional supplements Lixotinic aka Pet Tinic. Or, as is l-lysine, amino acid supplement, which, correct, is primarily to help limit replication of FHV and won't help your calici cat. Nutrition is numero uno. B complex is numero dos.
