Formulated by vets, VBS Amino B+K (120ml Liquid) is a liquid-based feed supplement that seeks to replace lost critical molecules and potassium ions to support normal bladder function. It can provide additional nutritional support for convalescing pets and animals with conditions that affect potassium balance.
Key Ingredients
VBS Amino B+K has a carefully selected combination of key ingredients that work together:
-
Potassium: Coordinates muscle contractions and brain impulses, and controls movement of substances in and out of cells. Helps maintain heart rhythm and normal kidney function.
-
Amino Acids: The building blocks for all proteins in the body’s cells. They support tissue repair, digestive function, and immune response.
-
Vitamin B Complex: Vital for energy metabolism, protein synthesis, and transport of nutrients into cells.
-
Iron: Necessary for the synthesis of haemoglobin, the vital oxygen carrier for cellular metabolism.
Low Potassium
The following conditions can result in low potassium levels (hypokalaemia):
-
Renal Insufficiency
-
Chronic Renal Failure (CKD)
-
Anorexia
-
Liver Disorders
-
Lower Urinary Tract Infections
-
Diabetes
-
Cardiovascular Disease
-
Systemic Disease
Hypokalaemia is a very common electrolyte imbalance in cats, particularly those with underlying health conditions. In one study by the Colorado State Vet School, 37% of sick cats had hypokalaemia. The prevalence of potassium deficiency increases sharply with age in cats with renal issues:
-
Cats over 10 years: 30–50% affected
-
Cats over 15 years: 50–80% affected
Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) is one of the leading causes of illness and death in senior cats. A major challenge is that cats typically do not show clinical signs until at least 67% of their kidney function is lost, meaning the disease is often advanced by the time it is diagnosed through physical symptoms alone.
It is always recommended that owners seek veterinary advice if they suspect any of the above or are concerned about their pet’s health before taking supplementary nutritional support.
Directions for Use
VBS Amino B+K is highly palatable and presented in a liver and bacon flavoured liquid, making it easy to administer and highly effective.
-
Shake bottle well before each use.
-
Using the provided measured dropper, give 2 ml per 5 kg body weight, 1–3 times daily, or according to veterinary advice.
-
Can be given directly or mixed with food.
-
Ensure fresh water is available to the animal at all times.

How It Works
VBS Amino B+K delivers a targeted blend of potassium, amino acids, B vitamins, iron, and spirulina to support pets at risk of low potassium or recovering from illness.
-
Potassium: Helps maintain normal heart rhythm, muscle function, nerve impulses, and kidney function. Essential for CKD cats to prevent hypokalaemia.
-
Amino acids & B vitamins: Support protein synthesis, energy metabolism, immune health, and recovery from illness.
-
Iron & Spirulina: Enhance oxygen transport, provide antioxidant protection, and support overall cellular health.
Regular use can help restore electrolyte balance, energy levels, and overall wellbeing, particularly in older or convalescing pets.
Pet Parent Review
“After my senior cat was diagnosed with low potassium and CKD, VBS Amino B+K made a huge difference. She is energetic again, and administering it is easy thanks to the flavour. Highly recommend!” — Liam M.

• Keep out of reach of children and other animals.
Important
Regular veterinary check-ups are essential to monitor urinary tract health, kidney function, and overall wellbeing — especially for cats prone to struvite stones, FLUTD, or renal issues.
