in Pain? My Top Natural Remedies
Many of you reading this are going to have a dog or cat who has been on an NSAID – Non Steroidal Anti inflammatory Drug.
Yes they can be effective for acute pain relief… .
But they can also have some serious side effects, and should be avoided long term… .and NEVER given to cats long term.
Common side effects include vomiting, diarrhea, not eating/eating less, and lethargy. If your pet experiences any of these potential side effects, STOP administering the medication and contact your veterinarian immediately. Veterinary NSAIDS may be associated with gastrointestinal ulcers/perforations, liver, and kidney toxicity.
Serious side effects associated with the use of NSAIDs can occur with or without warning and, in some cases, result in death. Use with other anti-inflammatory drugs, such as other NSAIDs and corticosteroids, should be avoided.
Patients at greatest risk for kidney problems are those that are dehydrated, are on diuretic treatment, or have pre-existing kidney, heart, and/or liver problems. NSAIDs can cause stomach or intestinal bleeding.
Just to name a few signs.
