Features

L-Lysine has been shown to lessen the clinical signs of FHV-1 and reduce viral shedding in the face of stressors. It reduces the frequency of flare up Feline herpesvirus type-1 (FHV-1), which is one of the most common causes of respiratory infections and eye problems in cats. In fact, up to 97% of cats have serological evidence of exposure to FHV-1. Following recovery from primary infection, up to 80% of cats become carriers. Even though carriers can remain asymptomatic for long periods of time, they continue to harbor the virus in nerve cells and can pass it on to uninfected cats, especially during times of stress. FHV-1 is rarely fatal in adult cats, however mortality rates can reach more than 30% in young kittens, who are often infected by their carrier mothers. Common Clinical Symptoms in Kittens and Adult Cats Sneezing, Nasal Discharge with Ocular Discharge, Conjunctivitis or Recurrent Corneal Ulcers (in Adult Cats)
