How It Is Usually Given
Use the weight-based serving on the label and ask your vet, especially if your dog already takes other supplements.
If your dog takes carprofen, avoid any product that lists aspirin or willow bark (salicin). See our guide to carprofen drug interactions.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this contain willow bark?
None of the sources we checked list willow bark, but always read the current panel. Avoid willow bark and aspirin with carprofen.
Is it vet recommended?
The maker says a veterinarian formulated it; that is not the same as your own vet recommending it. Ask yours.
