NOVIFIT® (NOVISAMe®) TABLETS FEATURED ON BRANDSTAR’S THE BALANCING ACT ON LIFETIME TELEVISION

Offering advice for owners of aging pets and educating viewers on how to cope with CDS

Educating viewers about the very important topic of Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome or CDS is Dr. Lisa Radosta, D.V.M.. The Balancing Act on Lifetime Television visits Dr. Radosta’s office and receives invaluable advice on helping pets get the most from their golden years and learns of Virbac Animal Health’s Novifit® (NOVISAMe®) Tablets.

"Old age is not a disease,” Dr. Radosta says. “Cognitive Dysfunction Syndrome (CDS) and age-related behaviors are manageable conditions.”

She urges pet owners to talk to their veterinarians as soon as they see any changes in their pets’ behavior – particularly senior pets.

CDS, often referred to as pet senility, is characterized by a deterioration of cognitive abilities including spatial orientation, activity levels, and response to stimuli. "Environmental modification and enrichment, plus a nutraceutical option such as Novifit (Tablets), can yield maximum results,” says Dr. Radosta.

Novifit (Tablets), she explains, “is a safe, proven, first-intention option for the management of age-related behavioral changes and CDS.” It is one of a line of products from Virbac Animal Health, which has been manufacturing pet health items for a quarter-century.

The segment airs May 22nd, Thursday, June 11, 2009; Tuesday, June 30, 2009; and Tuesday, August 04, 2009.
