Cosequin is a nutritional arthritis supplement to help dogs maintain healthy joints
Cosequin contains a unique combination of active ingredients that support the cartilage for use in arthritis. Glucosamine Hydrochloride supports the secretion of GAGs (Glycosaminoglycans) produced by cartilage cells from glucose. Chondroitin sulphate binds with collagen for tensile strength and control of water content. Manganese ascorbate is a necessary co-factor for GAG and collagen synthesis and if deficient, collagen fibres cannot be cross linked, which greatly decreases the tensile strength of the fibres. Through the combination of actions of these three ingredients, Cosequin supports normal joint function. Cosequin Double Strength (DS) Giant Chewable Tablets are designed for large/giant breed dogs Cosequin DS Chewable Tablets have been designed for medium to larger breed dogs. Directions: 10-20kg bodyweight: 2 capsules daily 20-40kg bodyweight: 3 capsules daily Over 40kg bodyweight: 4 capsules daily After the initial six week loading period, reduce dosage to maintenance level. This should be done gradually in 0.5-1 tablet steps, depending on the size of the pet. Do not alter the Cosequin dosage more than once a month. The tablets can be fed directly to your pet or crumbled and mixed with food. For finicky pets the tablets may also be given with their favourite treat. |
