Vetprofen (carprofen) Flavored Tablets for Dogs

Vetprofen is a prescription medication that contains carprofen, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by blocking certain chemicals in the body called prostaglandins that cause inflammation. Carprofen is commonly used to relieve joint pain and inflammation  associated with conditions like arthritis and to help improve mobility in aging dogs. It is also used in for pain management after surgery, or injury. If your dog has been diagnosed with a joint problem such as arthritis, or experiences limited mobility caused by joint pain, your veterinarian may prescribe a NSAID such as Vetprofen. Vetprofen comes in a flavored, chewable tablet making it easier to administer. Available in 25mg, 75mg, and 100mg strengths.
