Incurin should not be given to dogs who are experiencing polyuria (increased urination) and polydipsia (increased drinking, while Proin should be used with caution in dogs with kidney insufficiency. If Athena has kidney failure, I would discuss with your vet the appropriateness of her taking this drugs, as they may not be indicated due to her kidney failure.
