Pain Relief for My Dog
This product was recommended by my vet, and the generic equivalent provided by VetRxDirect has provided a big boost to my 14 1/2-year-old lab/mutt. She's able to get around easier, limps less, and the customer service in locating the generic equivalent has been great.
Most Liked Negative Review
I will not buy Meloxidyl again.
Meloxidyl is generic form of Medacam for joint pain. I tried for my Yorkie because it was much cheaper than Medacam. My Yorkie couldn't take the Meloxidyl. It gave her diarrhea.

A must-have in your medicine cabinet if you have rabbits
From UndisclosedComments about Meloxidyl (meloxicam) 1.5mg/mL Oral Suspension 100mL BottleI have a bun who's been on metacam (meloxicam) for at least 6 months now. As most of you may know, metacam is kind of like the "tylenol" of pain meds - quite innocuous in some ways. My bun does very well on this extended oral administration and I foresee the need to always have a bottle of this on hand for various issues that may arise. -
This medication helps my babi girl
From UndisclosedComments about Meloxidyl (meloxicam) 1.5mg/mL Oral Suspension 200mL BottleI chose to purchase the 200ml oral suspension meloxidyl from VetRx because of their competitive prices, several choices of sizes along with their quick delivery & well packaging. My 12 &1/2 yr old rattie has been on meloxicam for well over a yr, ( prescribed by her vet) due to a suspicious growth in her bladder ( which is ck every 6 mths) to help with inflammation & possibly increase in growth ( which I believe meloxidyl has most likely help with all those concerns.She takes her this med w/o any problems, I just syringe the liquid onto her boil shredded chicken breast once a day as prescribed @ or near the same time every day. -
A Pharmacy you can trust.
From UndisclosedComments about Meloxidyl (meloxicam) 1.5mg/mL Oral Suspension 100mL BottleI was getting this medicine from my vet. Unfortunately, the vet started stocking only Loxicom, which made my pet sick. I ordered what I thought was Meloxidyl from Chewy, judging from the landing page photo and description, but they sent Loxicom. It was great to finally get the name-brand medicine that works well for my pet's pain and does not have adverse effects. I will trust Vet Direct for my pet's needs in the future. -

This med helps my senior dog and is affordable too!
From UndisclosedComments about Meloxidyl (meloxicam) 1.5mg/mL Oral Suspension 10mL BottleI love that they have many generic meds. Being a foster mom with a no kill dog rescue that is struggling during the Covid pandemic, is killing our pocket books, so this helps alot. We are a 501C non profit so we ONLY work on donations which have been reeeally slim to none, plus we can't do public events to raise money either, so this helps alot. Service is courteous ad fast shipping too. This medication was for my 15 year old senior Buddie boy. It helps him with his front leg arthritis pain.Thanks!
