Cosequin plays an important role in
maintaining optimal joint function. Healthy articular (joint) cartilage
is crucial to joint utility. Cosequin helps support cartilage production
and protect existing cartilage from breakdown. Cosequin is the only
glucosamine/chondroitin sulfate supplement that has been shown safe,
effective, and bioavailable in peer-reviewed, published, controlled,
U.S. veterinary studies. Cosequin is manufactured following standards
similar to those practiced by the pharmaceutical industry.
Cosequin is available in Double Strength
(DS) capsules and tasty chewable tablets and in Regular Strength
capsules for dogs and cats.
Administration: Cosequin Regular
Strength Capsules
Instructions for use:
The recommended initial administration period is four to six
weeks; however, some dogs may respond in a shorter period of
time. At this time you can decrease the number of Cosequin
capsules to a level that maintains your pet's comfort. The
capsules can be pulled apart and the contents sprinkled on the
pet's food. Wet or moist food is preferred to ensure that the
pet gets the entire amount.
