Although there is no known cure for arthritis, there is a way to help ease the pain and discomfort associated with arthritis and other joint abnormalities. Rimadyl relieves arthritis pain, allowing for increased activity and freedom of movement to help improve your dog's quality of life. This increased activity helps your dog maintain a healthy weight, which helps slow down the progression of his disease.
Typically given once a day, Rimadyl is the most widely used canine non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) in the United States. This medication is shown to be clinically effective and can also be used in the control of postoperative pain associated with soft-tissue and orthopedic surgeries in dogs.
Available in two forms: scored caplets, which are easy to break apart to give the exact dose your pet needs, and chewables, which are a delectable, liver-flavored tablet to give as a reward. Different NSAIDs work differently on different dogs, so if you think your dog is suffering from the pain of arthritis, discuss the use of a NSAID, including Rimadyl, with your veterinarian.
Active ingredient: carprofen.
