anti-inflammatory. Other products like Rose
Hip Vital are all natural anti-inflammatories
that can help reduce arthritic pain. These
joint supplements can take between 3-8
weeks of use before a change is noticed,
which is why it is important to start
administering them at the early signs of
arthritis. Once started it is best that the
supplements are continued for life as when
they are stopped degeneration of the
joints will begin again. You should always
check with your veterinarian before starting
any new treatments or supplements as they
may interfere with current medications or
any underlying health issue that your pet
may have.
Your veterinarian is also able to prescribe
medication for your pet to help
manage arthritis. Anti-inflammatories or
corticosteroid medications may be given
to help reduce the pain and inflammation
associated with arthritis. There are also
some injectable medications, that your
vet can administer, that promote cartilage
repair and protection.
Although it can be a terrible and painful
illness the correct management of arthritis
can ensure that your pet can live a happy
and healthy full life. If you have any
concerns or questions or want to have your
pets arthritis diagnosed please contact
your veterinarian.
