What is previcox for dogs?

Previcox is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that is commonly prescribed for dogs to help manage pain and inflammation associated with conditions such as osteoarthritis. It works by inhibiting the production of certain chemicals in the body that cause pain and inflammation.

Previcox is available in chewable tablets and is usually given once a day with food. The dosage is determined by the dog's weight and should be prescribed by a veterinarian.

It is important to follow the veterinarian's instructions carefully when giving Previcox to dogs, as improper use can lead to serious side effects such as gastrointestinal ulcers, liver and kidney damage, and potential allergic reactions.

Regular monitoring and check-ups are recommended when a dog is on Previcox to ensure that it is well-tolerated and effectively managing the pain and inflammation. It is also important to store Previcox away from children and other pets, as it can be harmful if ingested.
