Thank you for submitting your question regarding Pan. Urinary SO is a high quality urinary diet. Provided your cat has the type of stones susceptible to dissolution, the diet can begin working in as little as 7 days. The size of the stones dictates how long until dissolution is complete. Struvite also known as triple phosphate stones are susceptible to dissolution. I hope this information helps!
