Gout & Kidney Acidifier

Renal Diseases are of common occurrence in Avians. The significant causes include include dehydration, hypovitaminosis A, excessive dietary

vitamin D3 or calcium (greater than 3% in non-laying hens) & protein, heavy metaltoxicity, bacterial nephritis secondary to systemic disease . One of the important differentials for primary renal disease in Urolithiasis & gout, In gout, there is hyperuricemia (increase in uric acid content in blood) excess uricacids start depositiong on serosal surfaces of the pericardium, liver capsule, air sacs and within the kidney but may be found on any tissue (visceral Gout) or on articular surfaces (in or around joints). Articular gout lesions are particularly common on the foot and hock. Clinical signs of articular gout may include reluctance to mave, shifting from leg to leg, lameness and joint swelling. Urolith development is most commonly associated with severe dehydration; other factors may include excess dietary calcium, Dietary Electrolyte Imbalances, infectious bronchitis virus, Mycoplasma synoviae infection, mycotoxicosis, or shipping stress. Excess dietary protein has also been correlated with increased production of uric acid, but even with very high levels of dietary protein (ie, 80%) gout develops only in genetically susceptible individuals. Nevertheless, it is still theorized that long-term & high-protein feeding may induce hyperuricemia in granivorous or nectivorous birds.
