Carprofen is used to treat pain and inflammation associated with hip dysplasia, arthritis, and other joint diseases. It also reduces fevers.

Key Benefits: Carprofen inhibits cyclooxygenase activity to deliver relief from pain and inflammation.

How is Medication Given? Follow your veterinarian's directions when using this product. Administer the lowest possible dose for the shortest possible duration to obtain a response. These pre-scored caplets should be administered to the closest half-caplet dosage rate. To control pain after an operation, give about 2 hours before operation. Total dosage rate can be given as 2 mg per pound of body weight daily, or divided to administer 1 mg per pound two times each day. Typical daily oral dosing recommendations are 2 mg per pound of body weight.

What Results Can I Expect? Carprofen relieves the pain and inflammation caused by osteoarthritis, and it also relieves the pain associated with recovery from orthopedic or soft tissue surgical procedures.
