Complete Guide To Quellin (Carprofen) Soft Chewable Tablets

What is Quellin for dogs?

Quellin (Carprofen) Soft Chewable Tablets is a type of medication that is meant to relieve pain. This medicine is most often associated with orthopedic surgery and osteoarthritis. The tablets are an NSAID or a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, a common category of pain killer. This drug is made using the chemical carprofen, which sounds close to ibuprofen.

However, ibuprofen is an over-the-counter medicine, while Carprofen is a prescription medicine. Arthritis is a painful condition in dogs. It affects their joints by progressively eroding the cartilage around the joints. As the cartilage becomes thinner, it becomes increasingly painful for your dog to walk or play.

Quellin (Carprofen) Soft Chewable Tablets help to alleviate this pain. This medicine is approved by the FDA for use in dogs and can significantly add to your dog's quality of life. Since it is in the form of a chewable tablet, the medication is easy to administer to your dogs as well. You can rest assured that your dog has gotten a full dose of his medicine!

What is carprofen used for in dogs?

Carprofen for dogs is most commonly used in pain management for arthritis and reduces pain and inflammation after orthopedic surgery and soft tissue surgery. Surgery can trigger a lot of inflammation in the body as your body recovers from a major operation and your dog's body works overtime to repair itself.

Inflammation can become a major issue if left untreated. It can upset your dog's digestive system and cause several problems like vomiting, diarrhea, and nutritional deficiencies. Inflammation can also increase the risk of heart disease and cancer. These are risks you want to keep as low as possible after something as significant as surgery.

Arthritis is a progressive degenerative disease. While there is no cure, you can manage the pain associated with it to a great extent. When arthritic dogs experience pain, it affects their mobility. Without pain medicine, they can refuse to move much and become depressed. This is where Quellin chew tabs for dogs come in.

With Quellin for dogs, your dog can regain some of the lost mobility. They will not experience as much pain as they were when walking or running. They will want to go out for walks again and will perk up like they used to before. This medicine can have a significant positive impact on your dog's quality of life!

What is the Quellin dosage for dogs?

Quellin dosage for dogs is 2mg per pound of bodyweight daily, or 4.4mg per kilo of body weight daily. Your vet can decide to give this as a single dose, or he or she might divide Quellin into two doses t be given twice a day. If your vet has decided to provide a higher or lower amount of carprofen for dogs, follow your veterinarian's advice.

Quellin for dogs is also used before surgery to reduce the risk and incidence of inflammation. In such cases, Quellin is given to dogs at least two hours before the surgery. Most surgery also requires dogs to not eat before the procedure. Quellin chew tabs for dogs don't contain any protein that could interfere with an empty stomach.

What precautions should I take when giving Quellin (Carprofen) Soft Chewable Tablets?

If your dog is having Quellin for dogs, then there are a few things you should keep in mind.

You should let your vet know of your dog's reactions before you start this course of treatment.
