Osteoarthritis is a common condition in older dogs. If it’s causing your canine companion pain and discomfort, talk to your veterinarian about Metacam. This prescription non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) reduces swelling and pain so your dog feels more comfortable and can be more mobile.
NSAIDs are medications that stop certain cells in the body from producing the chemicals that cause swelling and pain. Prescription Metacam is a proven effective treatment for dogs suffering from inflammation due to osteoarthritis. Veterinarians may also prescribe this medication for dogs that have just had surgery. Metacam comes in a flavored oral suspension that’s easy to administer.
