Cosequin DS for Medium/Large Dogs, 120 Chewables
Cosequin is a patented, scientifically researched tional
supplement dispensed by thousands of veterinarians to help dogs
maintain y joints. As dogs age, it is common for their
joints to become less flexible which impacts their mobility and
quality of life. You may have noticed that your dog has
difficulty walking up stairs or jumping on the bed. While he used
to be eager to play, now he is content to rest. Even at younger
ages some dogs are subject to joint concerns which affect
flexibility and mobility.
* Cosequin DS double strength chewables are available in 90 and
120 count sizes.
* Cosequin regular strength s for small dogs and cats are
available in 90 and 180 count sizes.
* Cosequin chewable s are available in 40, 120, and 250
count sizes.
* Cosequin Equine Powder is available in 1400, 700 and 280 gram
bottles
Recommendation as a Supplement: The Initial Administration
Period is 6 Weeks. Most animals should respond within this
period. Improvement on Cosequin can range from gradual to
dramatic. If the improvement is gradual, it may go unnoticed by
the owner. It is therefore important to keep the animal at the
initial a for at least 6 weeks before deciding to
discontinue the use of Cosequin. If there is gradual improvement
and Cosequin is discontinued, a regression of clinical status can
occur.
Maintenance Administration (After initial 6 week period)
Cats and dogs under 10 lb. can often have their dosage reduced
to 1/2 daily or 1 every other day. 10 to 24 lb.
can often have their dosage reduced to 1 daily.
Cosequin® DS is available for dogs in tasty chewable s.
Ingredients: Glucosamine HCl, Sodium Chondroitin Sule,
natural flavors, manganese ascorbate, gelatin, water, magnesium
stearate, titanium dioxide, FD&C Red #3, FD&C Blue #1, and sodium
lauryl sule.
COSEQUIN DS (DOUBLE STRENGTH) FOR MEDIUM AND LARGE DOGS:
Initial Administration (6 Weeks)
Dogs:
25-49 lb. - 2 s daily (1 in A.M./ 1 in P.M.)
50-100 lb. - 3 s daily (2 in A.M./ 1 in P.M.)
Over 100 lb. - 4 s daily (2 in A.M./ 2 in P.M.)
Maintenance Administration (After initial 6 week period)
Directions: The a can be increased at any time depending
on the pet's needs. If the pet does not respond as well when the
level is decreased, then return to previous level. Remain on this
a for a month, then try again to gradually reduce. Sometimes
an every other day a or lowering the a by 1/2
rather than one can be successful. Some pets will
maintain at a lower a during the summer months than the
winter months. Also activity level can vary the requirements. In
times of high physical demand, pets may require more Cosequin.
Cosequin DS double strength can be used on patients under 25
lb., however, 1/2 increments must be used. For
convenience, Cosequin regular strength should be used. Regular
strength can also be used for maintenance of dogs weighing 25-49
lb. that maintain below one daily of double strength.
The s can be pulled apart and the contents sprinkled on
the pet's food. Wet or moist food works best. As an alternative,
pets can be pilled or the s administered by wrapping in a
small piece of food. Cosequin is palatable to dogs, cats and
birds.
