Vet Review

I have found the glucosamine product Arthramine an economical tasty alternative to some of the more expensive joint supplements. I also like the addition of omega 3 fatty acids to the formula which also seem to help relief inflamed joints. Through regular use I have found that Arthramine relieves joint stiffness, arthritis pain and inflammation. I like the fact that it is made with all natural ingredients and in a formulation that most dogs love. It is very convenient to administer to especially larger breed dogs. The only rare problem I have seen is the development of occasional diarrhea in a rare pet. However I give this product an overall rating of 4.5 out of 5.

Being a more holistic oriented veterinarian, I am always searching for more natural effective products to ease our pets pain and discomfort, especially those joint issues associated with aging. I find this combination of homeopathic medicines most effective in those acute injuries or lameness that occur suddenly, In such situations this product is highly effective in relieving discomfort, and in returning our pets to normal mobility and function quite quickly. However when this product is used more long term for chronic conditions, I find that it will often lose its effectiveness if used alone or without some sort of prescription nonsteroidal anti inflammatory medication from your veterinarian, or other joint supplements. I find that combination homeopathic medicines like this make a great adjunct to first aid conventional veterinary care, however if clients truly want to treat their animals long term homeopathically for joint problems, that is best left to a trained classical homeopathic veterinarian who can individualize treatment for your particular pet. I give this product an overall rating of 4. Its ease of use is a 5 and its efficacy is a 4.

I have only recently been using this excellent joint supplement, which has a tremendous combination of nutrients that help reduce inflammation and discomfort in inflamed joints when doing normal activity. You have to love the extract of blue green algae joint is one of the key components in providing joint support and stress relief, as well as helping fight free radicals that are involved in so many degenerative and cancer conditions in our pets. This product works so well because of the unique blend of glucosamine, MSM, boron, creatine, and omega 3 fatty acids, in addition to the blue green algae. I will often recommend this product even as a preventative in all senior pets, as it can improve health in so many ways besides joint function. The hypoallergenic formula is wonderful for most pets, but a formulation known as Phycox A is possible for those dogs with allergies. This is one of my favorite new products and I give it an overall ranking of 5 out of 5.
