I also buy this food from my vet. I haven't bought it from Amazon (or anywhere else online) because I don't want to pay for shipping on top of the high price.
One of our cats was diagnosed with crystals in her urine, so our vet put her on a different prescription food to dissolve the crystals (30 days), then put her on Urinary SO for maintenance (the rest of her life, I'm told and she's still young!). She's been on the maintenance diet (Urinary SO) for over a year and a half, and she has perfect check-ups.
We have two cats, and to avoid feeding them in separate rooms (too complicated), we have them both on the same diet, which the vet said is fine. This food is expensive, but they both LOVE it.
The two cats (about 9 pounds each) share 1/2 cup of the dry Urinary SO food in the morning. In the evening, they share a 6oz can of this stuff. We also give them the dry kibble instead of other treats, and they love it. I think they like this food better than anything else we've ever fed them (Wellness, Natural Balance, Professional). These cats aren't particularly finicky eaters, although they didn't love Wellness. Since they're stuck eating this stuff for years to come, I'm glad they love it so much.
This food makes the cats thirsty, so make sure you provide plenty of fresh water. When we run out of cans and have to feed them the dry stuff at both meals, they double-down on the water consumption, so we have to stay on top of refills.
I really want to give this product 5 stars, but it's so expensive, and it's difficult to get ahold of I hate having to go to the vet during their business hours, so I stock up when I go, which is pricey.
