Why Treat Inflammation

Addressing pain in OA patients is essential, but so is treating inflammation. Chronic inflammation has severe health impacts, and these complications only get worse as the disease progresses. NSAIDS are crucial because they’re a time-tested way to defend against both pain and inflammation, and they can be used to help put your patient at ease no matter what stage of OA they are in.2

A Multi-Modal Pain and Inflammation Approach

Osteoarthritis is a progressive disease, making it challenging to treat and manage. For a chance at successful management, veterinary teams and pet owners must work together to build a customized and comprehensive management plan consisting of some combination of NSAIDs, nutrition, weight control, nutraceuticals, or adjunct therapy. This multi-modal approach can help improve and maintain the quality of life for patients.

How It Works

Medications Including NSAIDs

help decrease pain and inflammation

Weight Control

helps reduce excessive stress on weight-bearing joints, and nutrition and calorie management helps control weight

Nutraceuticals and Supplements

help improve joint support with oral nutrients such as glucosamine and chondroitin, or omega-3 fatty acid supplements

Adjunct Therapy

helps reduce pain and stiffness with treatments such as cold or heat pad applications, massage, or surgery

Exercise and Physical Therapy

help promote circulation, muscle tone, and strength around the joints
