As far as I know this product is not yet licensed in UK/Europe and is only available in the US. It will however be a prescription medication and will only be available through your vets office. There are many antiinflammatory medications available in the UK for dogs and your vet can discuss options available to Joe depending on his condition

Thank you for contacting Boop by Petco with your question about Bella. So Gabapentin has many uses including pain relief, and when used with Galliprant, it provides even better pain control from arthritis. Using them in combination is likely why you are seeing her act more energetic than being on the Galliprant alone. Gabapentin is an unusual pain medication in that it is rarely used by itself. On its own, gabapentin is not particularly effective in preventing pain, which is why it's frequently used in combination with other drugs. I honestly can't answer why Galliprant is so much more expensive, but if this combination works, I would stick with it. I hope this helps!

Hi! Thanks for using Boop by Petco! Galliprant is a new medication that has only been available for a few months so our experience is limited. However, vomiting, decreased appetite and diarrhea were observed in about 15-20% of the patients that received it in the field study they conducted before the medication was released. A dog that was sensitive to a medication is not necessarily going to be more sensitive to other medications. Every medication out there has some potential for side effects. I think it would be worth the try to see if it can help Riley. Good luck!

Symptoms of arthritis can include reluctance to rise after resting, a slow stiff gait, and intermittent lameness (usually weight bearing). The most effective medications for osteoarthritis include a newer non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medication called galliprant which has minimal adverse effects on the liver/kidneys, and is minimally ulcer causing. Galliprant and the traditional non-steroidal anti-inflammatory medications such as rimadyl (carprofen), Deramaxx, and Previcox may be prescribed by your veterinarian after a physical exam and routine screening bloodwork to determine the safety of prescribing these meds in your pet. There are also many non-prescription supplements such as Dasuquin (currently 5 star rated on Chewy.com) and 1-TDC (currently 5 star rated on Amazon.com) that can provide a noticeable increase in comfort for your pet. Weight loss if your pet is overweight as well as a visit to your veterinarian to rule out other potential causes of lameness (injury, growing pain

Dogs can experience pain from a variety of health conditions, including [osteoarthritis](https://www.petcoach.co/dog/condition/arthritis-1/),[ dental disease](https://www.petcoach.co/dog/condition/dental-disease/), [urinary tract infections](https://www.petcoach.co/dog/condition/utis-in-dogs/) or traumatic injuries, among many others. While it is extremely difficult to see our four-legged friends in pain, there are no safe and effective over-the-counter medications for managing pain in dogs (or cats). Over the counter pain relievers for humans, such as ibuprofen (Advil or Motrin), acetaminophen (Tylenol) and naproxen (Aleve) are all toxic to animals. Aspirin should also not be given to dogs because it causes significant irritation and potential ulceration of the gastrointestinal tract, and it inhibits a dog’s ability to clot blood. If you think that your dog is in pain, your best bet is to take him to your veterinarian. After performing a [physical exam](https://www.petcoach.co/article
