\n Rimadyl\n
\n \n\n \n
\n Our vet has us giving our aging, but loveable Huskie a combination of glucosamine, fish oil pills and Rimadyl. It seems to be helping some, but like all treatments, it only delays the inevitable.\n\nWhat pet lovers need to realize is that this is some very potent stuff. It's the human equivalent of Celebrex, which has proven effective in people with chronic arthitic pain (like me). However, it can cause ulcers, liver problems, and kidney problems., among others.\n\nIt can only be given when the pet has eaten food, in order to minimize the potential side effects on the stomach. Our vet requires routine, mandatory blood tests in order to monitor potentially adverse side effects- no exceptions. He will not prescribe the medication if we do not agree to this precaution.\n\nI voluntarily stopped taking Celebrex because of similar, potential side effects. I decided not to take the gamble, and just live with the "fruits" of all those years of sports.\nJust keep this in mind, and work closely with your vet to keep these painful conditions at least under control.\n

He hurt his shoulder and was put on Rmadyl ...4 days later he has now started vomiting with a loose bloody stool. and seems to be worse now than ever....we have stopped his meds, i just hope it is not too late to be corrected:(\n

\n My 14 year old lab mix could barely walk to the yard before his hind legs would give out. We thought he would never chase a squirrel again, unitl Rimadyl. Within three weeks of his first dose he needed to be walked on a lease because he was RUNNING so far ahead of me. This medicine changed our lives. Thank you\n

\n bad for my giant lab/pit\n
\n \n\n \n
\n For a strained shoulder the vet offered rimadyl. We had the dog on aspirin for a week prior with no problems, but no real improvement. Should have read the info & the vet should have known better, but owners are advised to stop apsirin for 10-14 days prior to any new pain meds. My dog is obviously allergic though and puked the very next day & for 3 days after. Vet did not know of side effects and blamed a sour stomach. If your dog vomits, stop the drugs immediately! I will be getting a full blood test for liver and kidneys. On the plus side, the drug seemed to help his shoulder; too bad it made him sicker than I've ever seen him.\n

\n Great relief.\n
\n \n\n \n
\n I would reccomend Rimadyl to anyone who is battling with cronic or acute joint pain in their dogs. I have used this with my GSD in both post surgical situations and now for aging hips. I like that it is quick to work and each dose lasts about 12 hours. The downside is once that 12 hours is up there is no slow letdown. There is a complete removal from the system once the time is up and if a dose is skipped or late it is often a full return to the original pain until it is resumed. This is both good and bad but a nasty surprise if you happen to be late with a dose. My dog has a very sensative stomach he gets hemmoragic diarrea even from a simple food change and even he can tolerate Rimadyl. Great stuff!!!\n

\n \n\n \n
\n I have a very large great dane who at 8 1/2 years old is beginning to have some joint stiffness in his lower fore leg. He's been on this product now for about one month more or less and I am seeing marked improvement of his stiffness. Not nearly so "gimpy" when he first gets up from napping. No side effects whatsoever.\n
