pharmacy with a Heart
We use Vetrxdirect for all our pets needs. We recently ordered Diclofnac Sodium because our dog Libby is a diabetic and also is blind. We order from Vetrxdirect
because we know that our order will get to us in a timely manner and the price is always right. I would recommend Vetrxdirect to everyone who has a pet. The Diclofnac sodium keeps Libbys eyes from getting any other disease in her eyes and it is very gently on her eyes.

Not sure if it's helping
I had a cataract removed from my pup's eye less than a year ago. It's already coming back. This med is for inflammation though and he doesn't seem to be uncomfortable.
