Use of L-deprenyl for retarding deterioration due to aging in dogs

摘要

L-deprenyl and pharmaceutically acceptable analog forms thereof are used at specific dosage levels and frequency of dosage to slow the normal age dependent deterioration of renal function, to provide increased exploratory behavior level of activity at any given age and in order to retard age deterioration of cognitive abilities, especially spatial learning ability as well as to maintain normal adrenal function, thyroid function, immune system function and body composition in aging mammals. The treatment can be especially useful for pets such as dogs and cats. t
