Rimadyl Offers Joint Pain Relief For Dogs
Rimadyl is a Pfizer Animal Health product that is designed
for dogs as a chewable tablet or as a caplet. It is given in
daily doses that offer 24 hours of relief and has been shown
in studies and said by veterinarians to be well tolerated by
dogs. It treats pain and inflammation associated with arthritis
and diseases of the joints, including the most common, hip dysplasia.
It is also used in many instances as a means by which to reduce
fever and a way to treat pain following surgical operations.
You will need a prescription from your vet to use Rimadyl.
This medicine functions by working on the dogs hormones, the
kind which can lead to inflammation and which trigger pain.
It is not for use in dogs that are being bred, are pregnant
or nursing. However, it is safe for dogs that are at least 6
weeks of age.
Clinical tests have shown that dogs experience measurable relief

that has relatively few side effects. Pfizer Animal Health is
one of the most trusted names in veterinary medicine with a
long history of providing pet owners and vets with products

A dog suffering from joint pain has no way to escape that pain
so it is important to consider the benefits of a medicine such
as this. Your veterinarian will be able to tell you if this
would be an effective treatment for your dog. If so, the easy
to give tablets or caplets are a simple and effective daily
solution to help your dog achieve a higher quality of life.
