Loxicom.

[king 11,971]

Is there any place online I can get a bottle of loxicom.havent long got back in.

The dog was behind a rabbit and hit a hawthorne tree with a loud thud.left side of muzzle is swollen and his face and a large green algae mark on his chest that took the full hit took the wind right out of him and his left leg is swollen.so could do with a bottle or get robbed down the vets otherwise..I've just given him the last bit i had.

Loxicom is just a brand name for the NSAID drug meloxicam. It's commonly used for arthritis in humans.

It's a prescription drug yes, but there are places you can still buy it without one.  No good for you as you need it now. Best to go to the vets and part with a hundred quid for the standard consultancy, noroclav and loxicom.

But it's worth knowing for the future as it's not uncommon to have a family members with chronic arthritis.

Naproxen, a common over-the-counter NSAID, is commonly known by the names Aleve and Midol. Prescription medications that contain naproxen, and may come in tablet, capsule, or liquid forms. While safe to use for humans, naproxen is very poisonous to dogs and cats, as it has a narrow margin of safety (which means it is very potent). As little as one 220mg tablet can cause very serious symptoms (even death), even in a large dog.

Might be used the same but doesnt mean it it is the same.Also read the side effects that shit can give humans(Ive experienced them)and then think about if you want to give them to your dog.

[king 11,971]

Back from the vets.left side of the chest the heart beat is fainter than the right.she thinks it's a bleed outside the lung in the cavity.and alot of bruising on the front of his chest.and sore stiff neck.his slight limp on front left leg has improved a bit from last night.

She prescribed.noroclav 500mg.metacam & tramadol.
