Hill's Prescription Diet l/d Liver Care is a dry dog food for dogs with chronic hepatitis, copper-storage disease or other liver dysfunction. The recipe is built to reduce the workload on a compromised liver while supporting tissue repair and overall health.

Controlled high-quality protein limits ammonia production from protein metabolism — a key trigger for hepatic encephalopathy in liver patients. Reduced copper levels help dogs prone to copper accumulation, while added zinc supports liver function and L-carnitine aids fat metabolism. Antioxidants including vitamin E protect liver cells from further oxidative damage. Veterinary authorisation required.

Vets prescribe l/d after liver biopsy or chronic elevated liver enzymes confirm a problem that diet can help manage. Owners often see noticeable improvement in energy and appetite within weeks, with bloodwork following over months of consistent feeding.
