PawSlim Sachet is a fibre-based weight management supplement for dogs and cats with purified cellulose, psyllium, L-carnitine, MCT, omega fatty acids and FOS.

Advanced purified cellulose matrix for safe weight management — multi-action formulation that reduces calorie absorption, maintains lean muscle mass, boosts metabolism and supports mobility in overweight dogs and cats.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS

Biofiber Purified Cellulose Matrix
Structured fibre matrix increases gastric fullness and slows calorie absorption safely.

Lean Muscle Mass Preservation
Whey protein + L-Carnitine prevent muscle wasting during gradual calorie restriction.

Metabolic Support
MCT powder + Organic Chromium enhance energy metabolism and fat utilisation.

Improves Activity and Stamina
Omega 3 and 6 and L-Carnitine support cardiovascular and joint health and exercise tolerance.

Digestive Balance
Inulin, FOS, Lipase, Amylase and Protease enzymes maintain GI health during weight loss.

Class:

Veterinary nutraceutical / complementary nutritional supplement / weight-management and dietary fibre supplement

Indication / Uses:

Obesity and Overweight Management: Safe, gradual weight reduction without compromising muscle mass or nutrient intake.

Appetite Control: Biofiber matrix creates satiety to reduce food consumption naturally.

Metabolic Syndrome: Chromium and MCT support insulin sensitivity and fat metabolism.

Mobility in Obese Dogs: L-Carnitine and omega fatty acids support joint and cardiovascular health.

Post-Neutering Weight Gain Prevention: Preventive weight management support after sterilisation.

Clinical clarification:
PAWSLIM should be regarded as an adjunct to a controlled weight-loss programme, rather than a standalone obesity treatment. Successful canine and feline weight management depends primarily on controlled calorie intake, appropriate diet selection, regular monitoring and an individualized exercise/activity programme.

Dosage and administration:

Important:

One 5 g sachet contains the product formulation, but does not state whether one complete 5 g sachet is intended for a particular body-weight range. This should be confirmed from the manufacturer’s technical insert before using.

Administration:
Mix with the regular food as directed by the veterinarian.

Overdoses / Side effects / Contraindications / Warnings:

Overdose:
No information available.

Possible side effects:
Because the product contains a substantial fibre component including purified cellulose and psyllium husk, excessive intake may potentially cause gastrointestinal effects such as:

• • Increased faecal bulk
  • Flatulence
  • Abdominal discomfort
  • Changes in stool consistency

Adequate water intake is particularly important when fibre supplements are used.

Contraindications / Important cautions:

Known hypersensitivity to any ingredient.

Use cautiously in animals with gastrointestinal obstruction, suspected intestinal obstruction or significant swallowing difficulty.

Fibre-containing products should be administered with adequate access to water.

In cats, obesity should be managed carefully to avoid excessive caloric restriction and rapid weight loss because of the risk of hepatic lipidosis.

Underlying endocrine or metabolic disorders contributing to obesity should be investigated when clinically indicated.

Warnings:

PAWSLIM is a nutraceutical/weight-management supplement and should not replace a complete, appropriately formulated weight-reduction diet.

Weight reduction should be gradual and monitored by body weight and body-condition scoring.

The product should not be used to justify unrestricted feeding of calorie-dense diets.

If an obese animal has polyuria/polydipsia, marked lethargy, polyphagia, muscle wasting or other clinical abnormalities, underlying disease should be investigated rather than treating obesity solely with supplementation.

Pharmaceutical precautions / Instructions:

For veterinary use only. Mix with the regular food.

Follow the veterinarian’s recommended frequency and amount.

Ensure adequate access to fresh drinking water.

Introduce fibre-containing supplements appropriately to minimize gastrointestinal intolerance.

Monitor body weight regularly. Monitor body-condition score and muscle condition during weight reduction.

Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture.

Keep sachets sealed until use. Keep out of reach of children.

Safety: Age / Pregnancy / Withdrawal:

Age:
No specified minimum age; use in growing puppies and kittens should be based on veterinary assessment because weight-loss programmes require adequate nutrition for growth.

Pregnancy / Lactation:
Specific pregnancy and lactation safety information for PAWSLIM could not be verified. Use during pregnancy or lactation should therefore be based on veterinary assessment.

Withdrawal:
Not applicable for dogs and cats.

Weight-management monitoring:

For clinical use, monitor:

• • Body weight
  • Body Condition Score (BCS)
  • Muscle Condition Score (MCS)
  • Caloric intake
  • Feeding compliance
  • Activity level
  • Rate of weight loss

For cats especially, food intake should be carefully monitored during weight reduction because inadequate caloric intake can predispose obese cats to hepatic lipidosis.

Substitute: Calowries Powder.
