Hill’s Pet Nutrition (Hill’s), a global leader in science-led nutrition and US veterinarians’ No. 1 recommended brand, today announced two new innovations: Hill’s Prescription Diet k/d + Derm Complete and Hill’s Prescription Diet k/d + z/d Hydrolyzed, formulated with nutrition clinically shown to help add years and enhance quality of life.
The new Prescription Diet k/d + sensitivities offerings are designed for pets with kidney issues alongside skin or gastrointestinal sensitivities. Pet parents and veterinarians can feel confident in choosing nutrition that supports multiple health needs without compromise. The innovations are now available via veterinarian recommendation, and feature ActivBiome+ Kidney Defense, a blend of prebiotic fiber shown to activate a pet’s gut microbiome to reduce harmful waste products.
“Veterinary health care teams often see patients whose health needs don’t fit neatly into one category,” said Dr. Chelsie Estey, US Chief Veterinary Officer at Hill’s. “Historically, veterinarians have had limited nutritional options to support both kidney health and sensitivities. With Prescription Diet k/d + sensitivities, Hill’s continues to expand the veterinary toolbox, filling a critical need for veterinarians and pet parents alike.”
Both canine and feline innovations, available in dry and wet formulations, feature nutrition with reduced phosphorus and sodium, enriched with omega-3 fatty acids, and optimized levels of essential amino acids and high-quality protein to help keep them strong. Hill’s is proud to provide the only wet option offering both kidney and sensitivity support among leading therapeutic brands in North America.
