Rated 5 out of 5 The only medication that has worked.... This is the only medication that has helped my 10 year old, retired AKC Champion Labrador Retriever, Lancelot have relief from his progressing painful osteoarthritis, and I have tried many medications up to now. Lance is a big dog -- about 105 pounds. Just one pill every morning brings the joy and 'spring' back to my big loving 'bulldozer'...:o) September 28, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 Previcox was my final hope, and it worked! This was my final hope. I've tried many things to get some relief for my 15 year old Chow/Shepard mix. He was suffering so much from arthritis that he would not walk down the steps of our back porch to get into the back yard so he could do his business. He would just go ahead and do it on the porch! My vet finally prescribed Previcox. In winter, it's noticeable that he still hurts, but he will walk down the steps. I'm worried that after long term use it may not be as effective. Hope I'm wrong! August 3, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 Works but not for an extended period of time. I had my English Mastiff on Previcox for about 8 months. This medicine does work I agree but the overall long term use I have to disagree as I believe my dogs body got use to it and it no longer helped her. I don't think there is ever a wonder drug out there that has a long term use and effect. June 30, 2011
Rated 2 out of 5 Spendy! I am just starting my German Shepherd on this medication. I came to this site hoping to find a better deal than at my vet, but no soap! $2.79 per 227mg chewable on this site, but at my vet it's only $2 per tab. I won't be buying here anytime soon. June 23, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 I've got my dog back! My 13 y/o cocker spaniel acts like a puppy again. She was to the point of not being able to go up or down the stairs. On top of that, she was losing all her hair. She had a lovely, thick golden coat. She was getting eye infections, and ear infections that I could not clear up and a skin condition. Well I discovered she had an underactive thyroid which cleared up all her problems soon after starting thyroid meds. All except for her problems with mobility. The vet said she was surprised she could even walk after looking at ex-rays of her spin. With Previcox, she is like a new dog. She still has times when she appears to suffer but nothing compared to her difficulties prior to Previcox. Truly a wonderful medication! May 13, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 Athens reborn! Our daughter moved to the UK from Chicago two years ago and left her Golden Retriver - Athens (she was graduated from the University of Georgia, our daughter not the dog) because it would be more then unfair to cage an 11 year old large Golden in a cage for 6 months for quarantine; Athens has developed significant trouble with her front right hip and has severe arthritis, at night I would have to assist her in just going up the stairs, she has also been showing an obvious limp for over a year, NOW, after three weeks on Previcox she is a different dog. We also have a second Golden named Sadiebrae who is 6 and now they wrestle in the yard, chase and run together, they've been best friends almost since the first days Athens arrived in March 2008 but now they can truly interact and play on an almost equal basis (Sadiebrae is a large bitch, eg. 86 lbs ) so Athens not only gives away 7 years but 15 lbs and yet she keeps up! It is SO heartwarming to see these magnificant animals now so enjoying their time together, all because of Previcox. Oh how I wish I'd acted sooner because, let's face it, these best friends will soon part, that day will really hurt everyone except Athens and all the joy she has left on this Earth, after all - she is family. Thank you Previcox! October 11, 2010
Rated 5 out of 5 Previcox to the Rescue! I am the founder of Save the Ranch Dogs Rescue dedicated in saving the working stock dog. I recently rescued a beautiful 11-12 yr old tri-color Border Collie named Amigo. He was to old to work cattle so his owner locked him in a cattle trailer for over a year, he was filthy, horribly matted and his left hind ACL (knee) was pretty swollen. According to the xrays it looked like his leg had been injured pretty badly when he was younger and was left untreated. Amigo takes 1/2 Previcox daily, the swelling has gone way down & he is pain free! He even plays sometimes with the other rescue pups. Most of all though he loves being allowed in the house for the first time in his life and he thinks fluffy soft beds are great! "Because of Previcox & STRDR (Rescue) I am pain free, clean, and loved for the first time in my life, Wooooof!" Love, Amigo September 22, 2010
