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.

Another wonderful joint treat for dogs are the Greenies Joint Care Dog treats. These treats include a synergistic mixture of glucosamine, chondroitin, and omega 3 fatty acids for healthy joints. The amino acids in the product help maintain normal cartilage health. I also love the fact that these treats contain the ingredient the green-lipped mussel, which has been shown in human research trials to be effective for management of arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. Additional minerals of zinc, copper and manganese also support healthy joint function and mobility. I give these tasty treats an overall rating of 4 out of 5.

One of the most impressive aspects of the 1800petmeds pharmacy services is their ability of providing to the clients many wonderful products labelled with the name 1800petmeds, that often offer equal if not superior clinical results to some of the more expensive brand name products often sold by veterinarians. . There is no better product in my experience that demonstates this more than the 1800petmeds super joint enhancer. This terrific blend of glucosamine, chondroitan and MSM makes up a vital component of any preventative or therapeutic joint health program. Readily acceptable by most pets in a pleasant pork/beef flavoring, I have found this product so effective in practice in helping with enhancing post operative healing, as well as when used over a long period of time, extremely helpful in easing joint pain and helping manage ongoing joint inflammation of degenerative joint disease. I do find even superior results when I combine the super joint enhancer with other healing agents like proanthozone, which decreases free radical inflammation, and helps strengthen the collagen that also makes up the so called glue of the joints. Along with omega 3 fatty acids like super joint omega or Be Well from 1800petmeds, I often find this triad of supplements highly successful in enhancing the quality of life of painful or arthritic pets, often sparing the need for stronger prescription drugs that may cause side effects in sensitive patients when used long term. The only disadvantages I can see is the rare case of diarrhea from such glucosamine products, or if the pet is allergic to beef or pork. And while in the human literature, glucosamine derivatives have been suggested at causing insulin resistance in humans, I have not found this to be a significant issue in our companion animals. However because of the presence of glucose in this product, any diabetic patients who stay on this product long term, should have their sugar regulation monitored by their local veterinarians to make sure there is no significant impact on blood sugar levels. Other than these minor concerns, I highly endorse this product, especially when combined with the other wonderful joint supplements available from 1800petmeds.I rate this product 5 out of 5.
