Royal Canin Glycobalance, previously sold as Royal Canin Diabetic, is a veterinary diet for the nutritional management of diabetes in dogs. Its low level of fast-releasing carbohydrates helps regulate glucose after meals, while high protein helps maintain muscle mass.
Key benefits
- Glucose management: A specific formula to help manage blood glucose after meals.
- High protein: Helps maintain muscle mass.
- Low starch: Reduced fast-releasing carbohydrates for a steadier glucose supply.
- Moderate fat: Helps support weight management.
Royal Canin has made small changes to the formula with the name change. Move your dog onto the new bag gradually over at least 7 days, and ask your vet whether to check blood glucose after switching. Typically fed for up to 6 months initially, then long term under veterinary supervision.
Veterinary diet: This is a Royal Canin Veterinary Health Nutrition diet. Feed it only on the advice of your veterinarian, and follow their guidance on how long to feed it and when to recheck.
