My cats been on a novel prescription diet for his allergies. About how long should it be before I start to see improvement in his overall health since he's no longer on the food he was allergic too?

Hi there! Our diet trials for patients with allergies can take a couple of months to show true improvement but usually around the one month mark the difference is noticeable. Make sure you are strictly following the diet trial and giving no other treats or food mixed in, as this will not give accurate results to your new food. Hope this helps!
