Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery published a paper “Effect of Polyprenyl Immunostimulant on the survival times of three cats with the dry form of feline infectious peritonitis“ (J Fel Med Surg 11:624-626) by Drs. Alfred M. Legendre and J.W. Bartges.  Abstract - Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is considered a fatal disease. Three cats with dry form FIP were treated with Polyprenyl Immunostimulant. Two of the three cats are still on treatment and are alive and well 2 years after diagnosis. The third cat survived 14 months but was treated for only 4.5 months. Further studies are necessary to assess the potential of the Polyprenyl Immunostimulant.
