I do fully recommend this product. My cat had both eyes healing very slowly with the very expensive drops and ointment from the animal optometist. He had ocular herpes severely. The poor guy even had to have an eye operation.

I started giving him Lysine from a pill's contents, but he could detect it in his food. With this powder, I don't even have to mix it in the moist food completely, he justs chows down as usual.

His eyes are clear now and the meds are for usage once a week only, for maintenance. There was a very distinguished improvement in his healing after the Lysine supplementation. I don't know why the vet didn't educate me about using L-Lysine to help stop the progression of the herpes virus. It worked very well, I will buy the big bottle next time!!!

Stay tuned, I have a feeling that I can discontinue the meds completely and rely on the Lysine to keep the herpes outbreaks at bay. When they run out, I will try the Lysine only and see if I am right.

Our cat's Veterinarian recommended starting her on VET Viralys (L-Lysine)because it is believed that it boosts the cat's immune system to minimize the Feline Herpes Virus outbreaks and severity of them.

The cat has had an outbreak since starting the product a little over a month ago but the episode was much milder and shorter in duration then the initial outbreak. Her eye teared only slightly and the shedding was limited and not difficult to control.

We believe the product is helping as it was intended. The only drawback is having to give the Cat 2 doses each day which requires hiding it in a small amount of moist cat food. Even then, it is well worth keeping it in her diet.

i could only get this product from my vet. i am glad that i can now get it on line and for a good price.

I have been sprinkling 'human form' lysine on my cat's food for years. (He was an abandoned little guy and the vet feels he was most likely malnourished at an early age and has feline herpes virus as a result)
Since there is no cure, I was stuck with lysine as a preventative measure. I am certain it made his food taste chalky, as he would only eat a little at a time, and very reluctantly. My other cats wouldn't even go near it.

I am so happy to have found Viralys. You open up the jar and know right away any cat would love the taste by the smell alone! LOL My cat eats all of his food now and I can breathe easy that his outbreaks will be less frequent and shorter in duration.

Thank you!!!!! :)

Our cat came to us from the shelter with a packet of lycene powder. But when I called the shelter to ask whether I could buy some from them, they said No. And when I asked how to get some, they couldn't tell me. So I as thrilled when I was able to find it online, and for such a reasonable price. It was delivered promptly. I will order from this seller again.

I had previously been getting the Viralys gel from our vet. This powder version online was a much better price and less additives (just says Lysine in a flavor base). I've sprinkled it on hard and soft food and my kitties don't even seem to notice (I have 2) and one of them is very particular about his food. It took him awhile to get use to the gel.

My 11 month old kitten Jim has feline herpes, and a few months ago he had two really bad outbreaks a week apart, so I took him to the vet's office(where I work) and the doctor recommended I try the Viralys gel to lessen the severity of his outbreaks and their frequency. Well, it wasn't in my budget after the examination and the eye stain and the antibiotic and I wanted to do my own research first before buying something I'd never heard of. Anyways, I saw the reviews weren't so great on the gel, but they were great on the powder AND it was much cheaper so I gave it a shot. It's now been over three months and he hasn't had an outbreak since, when they used to be every other month at least! I'm really happy with Viralys and if your cat has feline herpes its a big worry, time and money saver! It's also REALLY stinky/fishy smelling and Jim just gobbles it up with a little warm water in his dry food.

I just wanted to share my experience with Viralys powder. It was recommended by our "vet" for our cat who frequently gets a watery eye. The first time it was used in conjunction with eye ointment and it cleared right up. A few weeks later, it started tearing up again and we started her back up on the powder (a heaping scoop morning and evening in her wet food). Again, it cleared right up - this time, without the ointment. We also used it when two of our cats started sneezing. We checked with the vet, and since they weren't lethargic and were eating well, we put them on the powder too, and within a week they were both over it. I feel it's a great product and would recommend it to keep your pets healthy and to boost their immune system!

I have a cat who is a rescue kitty from a shelter and who had chronic weepy eyes, and also a history of eye infections. Right after I got her she got conjunctivitis and an eye infection, and I treated her with eye ointment prescribed by the vet (but also available on Amazon Terramycin Opthlamic Ointment), eyewash, and hot compresses. She had to stay quarantined and she was associating me with disagreeable things. When she seemed better except for weepy eyes, a shelter person recommended I try Lysine and that has cleared her eyes up almost completely, so that the vet said she is fine to be with the other cats. The vet also said she recommends giving it to all cats, so I don't have to isolate her feeding, and it is not very expensive. I mostly give it to her twice a day still, but sometimes she gets sick of having it mixed in her food so we skip it for a while, and her eyes still look good. The more palatable the food to start with, the less likely the cats will reject the addition of Lysine. As reasonable as the cost is, it would be nice if shelters could give it to their symptomatic cats.

Having 13 kitties when one of them gets an upper respiratory infection they all seem to follow. I put L-Lysine in the wet food of the cats that had an upper respiratory infection and they found the taste acceptable. In no time (about a week) of giving L-Lysine along with other vitamins/supplements the URI kitties could finally come out of quarantine! :)
