Sementra Usage And Side Effects

Updated

My cat is on Sementra for kidney disease. How safe is it for cats long term? Can it cause other problems (e.g. heart murmur)?

Hello Maree,

According to the Boehringer, the manufacturer, Sementra is well tolerated in most cats (more than 90% reportedly) and even at 5 fold the normal dose for 6 months there were few adverse reactions noted. Here is a list of some of the side effects that were noted.

- mild and intermittent regurgitation
- vomiting
- diarrhoea
- soft faeces
- elevated liver enzymes
- decreased red blood cell count
- lower blood pressure

After doing research I could not find any negative effects of Sementra after long periods of time.

I hope this information is helpful. You and your cat have a wonderful day.
