Old Man Tie On METACAM Now

[Ron]

We've had Tie on medicam now for 5-6 weeks. He's 12 now and the meds help with his old man bones and joints.

We've noticed him improve with his mobility and his ability to get up and down more freely.

Here is a brief breakdown of what it is:

Whether your patient is a dog suffering from osteoarthritis or a cat about to undergo orthopedic surgery, METACAM is the veterinary NSAID to have on hand. For 15 years, METACAM has delivered safe, effective, and easy pain relief to dogs and cats around the world.1 METACAM is:


The only injectable veterinary NSAID licensed for both cats and dogs

The only oral liquid veterinary NSAID for dogs with osteoarthritis

The only NSAID with a special oral liquid concentration to meet the unique needs of small dogs

A once-a-day product that provides a full 24 hours of relief
Easy to tailor to the appropriate dose for individual canine patients using FLEXIDOSE™, the ability to adjust dose gradually in small increments to reach the lowest effective dose, which can improve safety and save money over the long term

That's great Ron.

I just noticed...you have to change the age on your signature at the bottom of your posts if you just said Tie is 12 now.

Poor old man--got a touch of the rumatiz', has he? That medication sounds great (sounds like it could help me right about now as well!) I'm so glad they are finally getting more medications out there for dogs like they do for us--I'll never forget when we took Carli in to be spayed and they were going over the estimate of cost and said 'and for $10 more, she can have pain medication--do you want to add that on?' Duh!
Glad he's doing better, and hope this helps him keep up with Newman!

Glad to hear that the medicine is helping! Not sure if you can give anything else with his meds, but there is something out there called Nupro Silver - it has vitamins along with supplements for joint pain: Nupro - Joint Support All Natural Dog Supplement

Poor Tie, he is getting on, bless him - please can you post some pics up of both the boys for us all?

Just lately, I have been reading some really positive reports from some people who have been giving their older dogs this - http://www.moxxor.com/default.aspx It is not cheap though
