- Short courses. 5–7 days every few months for prevention.

Cons and what to keep in mind
- Doesn't replace diagnosis. Blood in the urine, frequent urges and pain need a urine test and examination.

- Short life once opened. Use the bottle within 21 days.
- Herbal taste. Some animals are reluctant — give it with a little wet food.
Urolik or Kot Elvin
Both are herbal products used for urinary problems. Kot Elvin is made for cats and contains knotgrass, horsetail, spotted lady's thumb and restharrow root. Urolik suits both dogs and cats and contains cranberry, bearberry, horsetail and Aerva lanata. More on the first in our Kot Elvin review. Agree the choice and regimen with your vet.
What matters more than supplements
For urinary health, water and the right diet come first. Give cats wet food and several water bowls; give dogs frequent walks so they don't have to hold it for long. Watch the weight and keep the litter box clean. For animals that have had stones, a vet will choose a prescription food based on test results. Read more in urinary stones in cats.
Who it suits
At-risk cats and dogs — neutered, inactive, overweight or with past cystitis — for preventive courses, and as part of treatment prescribed by a vet. Prescription foods are in veterinary diets for cats, and other products in veterinary products.
Verdict
Urolik is an affordable herbal supplement supporting the kidneys and urinary tract in dogs and cats: a clear formula, a convenient liquid form and short preventive courses. It complements diet and care well but doesn't replace diagnosis and treatment.
