When your beloved canine companion is experiencing discomfort from joint issues or injuries, Metacam Chewable Tablet for Dogs 1mg offers targeted pain relief for dogs and acts as a powerful anti-inflammatory for pets. This prescription-only medication is specifically formulated to help manage both acute and chronic musculoskeletal pain.

Description

Metacam Chewable Tablet for Dogs 1mg is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) containing Meloxicam. It is widely prescribed by vets to alleviate pain and inflammation in dogs suffering from conditions such as arthritis and other musculoskeletal disorders.

Understanding Metacam for Your Dog

As a leading arthritis treatment medication for canines, Metacam works by reducing the production of prostaglandins, which are chemicals in the body that cause pain and inflammation. This helps to improve your dog's comfort and mobility, allowing them to enjoy a better quality of life.

Administering Metacam Chewable Tablets

  • The chewable tablets are palatable and designed to be readily accepted by most dogs, making administration straightforward.
  • They can be given with or without food, offering flexibility for busy pet owners.
  • For precise dosing, particularly for smaller dogs or specific weight requirements, Metacam Chewable Tablet for Dogs 1mg can be easily halved.

Long-term management of chronic conditions typically involves a once-daily maintenance dose, as directed by your veterinary surgeon. For even more precise dosing, especially for very small adjustments, your vet may recommend Metacam Oral Suspension for dogs.

As a prescription-only veterinary medicine, it's crucial to consult your vet to ensure Metacam Chewable Tablet for Dogs 1mg is the right treatment for your pet's specific needs and to receive the correct dosage instructions. Weldricks Pharmacy provides a convenient and trustworthy way to obtain your dog's prescribed medication, delivered discreetly to your door with free UK delivery on orders over £40.
