Nutri-Lys® Lysine Supplement Gel is an oral L-lysine gel for cats. It supports daily lysine intake for cats that experience eye or respiratory flare-ups. This product is supplied from Canada and ships to the US. Use this page to learn how it works, who may benefit, dosing basics, storage, and safety. Many pet owners pay out of pocket without insurance and compare options using Canadian pricing.
Qué es Nutri-Lys® y cómo funciona
L-lysine is an essential amino acid cats get from food. The gel provides a measured amount of L-lysine in a palatable base. Caregivers and veterinarians have used lysine to support eye and nasal comfort in cats prone to feline herpesvirus type 1. Evidence is mixed, and it is not a cure. Decisions should follow a veterinarian’s advice and the product label.
At CanadianInsulin, orders are filled by licensed Canadian pharmacies after we confirm a valid prescription with your clinic. This supplement is available from Canada with US shipping for convenient access and straightforward comparisons.
The gel is easy to place on a paw, in the mouth, or on food. Cats usually accept the taste. Some cats may not tolerate flavored gels; a trial with a small amount can help assess acceptance.
Para quién es Nutri-Lys
This gel is intended for cats and kittens when a veterinarian recommends L-lysine supplementation. It may be considered for cats with recurrent eye discharge, sneezing, or nasal congestion linked to feline herpesvirus. It is not a substitute for antiviral medicines when those are needed.
Avoid use if a cat is allergic to lysine or any inactive ingredient in the gel. Use caution in cats with diabetes, obesity, or sensitive stomachs, since some gels contain sugars or flavoring agents. Discuss use with a veterinarian if a cat has kidney disease, is pregnant or nursing, or is on a therapeutic diet.
Posología y utilización
Follow the product label and the veterinarian’s instructions. Many feline lysine gels are given twice daily, with a total daily amount adjusted for age and weight. Kittens often receive smaller amounts than adult cats. Some veterinarians recommend a higher daily amount during symptomatic periods, then lowering to a maintenance amount. Do not exceed label directions unless a veterinarian instructs otherwise.
Place the measured gel on a paw to encourage licking, dispense it onto a small treat, or apply directly into the cheek pouch. If mixing with food, ensure the full amount is consumed.
Fortalezas y formas
Nutri-Lys Lysine Supplement Gel is supplied as an oral gel in a squeezable tube with marked dosing guidance. Flavoring and caloric content vary by batch and manufacturer listings. Availability may vary by season and supplier. Some caregivers prefer powdered lysine; both forms aim to deliver L-lysine in a form cats will accept.
Dosis omitida y momento oportuno
If a dose is missed, give it when remembered. If it is close to the next dose, skip the missed dose and resume the regular schedule. Do not double the amount to make up for a missed dose. Consistent daily use may help maintain a stable lysine intake.
Almacenamiento y viaje
Store the gel at room temperature in a dry place. Keep the cap tightly closed and protect it from heat and direct sunlight. Do not freeze unless the label clearly allows it.
For travel, you can keep the tube in your carry-on or a travel pouch. You can store the gel with other pet supplies and use a clean dosing tool. Avoid leaving the tube in a hot car. Keep out of reach of children and other animals.
Beneficios
Las principales ventajas son:
- Oral gel format that many cats accept.
- Simple measuring for consistent amounts.
- Can be given alone or mixed with a small amount of food.
- Non-prescription supplement for veterinarian-directed support.
- From Canada with US shipping for easy access and price comparison.
Efectos secundarios y seguridad
- Common: soft stools, gas, mild diarrhea, or vomiting.
- Less common: reduced appetite, drooling, or refusal of flavored gel.
- Allergic reactions are rare but possible.
Stop the gel and seek veterinary care if severe vomiting, persistent diarrhea, swelling, hives, breathing trouble, or eye symptoms worsen. L-lysine is generally well tolerated, but high amounts may cause gastrointestinal upset. For cats with diabetes, confirm carbohydrate content and discuss options with the care team.
Interacciones medicamentosas y precauciones
No major drug–drug interactions are well established with feline lysine supplementation. Still, discuss all vitamins, treats, and supplements with the veterinarian. Antiviral medicines, topical eye treatments, and antibiotics may be used for specific clinical needs. For background reading on antibiotic care in pets, see Guía de Doxiciclina y Azithromycin Guide.
Use caution if a cat is on a strict renal diet or has metabolic conditions. Review ingredient lists for flavors, sugars, and preservatives. This gel is not for human use.
Qué esperar con el tiempo
Some cats tolerate the gel well and maintain regular intake. Signs such as watery eyes or sneezing may wax and wane. A veterinarian may adjust the plan if symptoms persist. If no benefit is observed after a reasonable trial, the care team may consider alternatives or discontinue the supplement.
Comparar con alternativas
Some caregivers prefer a powdered form for mixing with food. If so, consider Nurti Lys® Suplemento de Lisina en Polvo as a similar approach to daily lysine.
When a veterinarian diagnoses or suspects feline herpesvirus flare-ups that need antiviral therapy, a prescription option may be considered. We also carry Famciclovir, which veterinarians may prescribe for certain cats.

Duration depends on symptoms and the veterinarian’s plan. Some cats use it during flare-ups, while others continue at a maintenance amount.
