Great chew & my cats love them
From New JerseyComments about Optixcare L-LysineMy vet recommended I give these chews daily to my Abyssinian kittens who had conjunctivitis. Lily Grace & Bella Bijou love these chews and ask for more. L-Lysine is an excellent dietary supplement for eye health for our kitties.

For the lysine powder or paste can I mix with water? And do the dosage with a syringe? My cat will absolutely not eat the treat and my vet only recommends the optixcare L-Lysine?
-
According to the manufacturer, Optixcare L-Lysine can be mixed with water and given with a syringe. The manufacturer also suggests mixing it with canned food, wet food such as canned fish or chicken, or a creamy treat such as Churu.
