Previcox Dog Pain Relief & Arthritis Meds

Which is better for my dog's arthritis previcox, meloxicam, or galliprant?

My 11 year 85 lb Rott-GSD mix has hip dysplasia & arthritis in his shoulder. He has severe pain, doesn't put weight on his rear leg in the last few weeks. Has several oozing sarcomas on his back. We have been seeing his vet every 2 wks. He is on 227 mg Previcox 1x day & 50 mg Tramadol every 4-6 hrs. Gabapentin was tried but didn't help. We have decided to make the final trip Monday. Can we try an extra dose of Previcox to help him through Sunday? Want to ease his pain, not kill him.

Max fell down a metal staircase 2 weeks ago, got hurt. Went to vet. X-rays taken, vet said nothing broken, prescribed 10 day course of Previcox. After taking medication for 6 days Max was still crying when standing up and not running at all. Returned to vet, took another look at X-rays and found a small hairline fracture at the top of Max's right hip bone - not very visible on X-ray. 10 more days of Previcox. No more crying, still limping slightly, runs. Bump on Max's back. Wait or operate?

Hi, our 14 year old dachshund has been diagnosed with early stages bladder cancer. We've been told that there isn't much we can do but she's been prescribed previcox. What are our options? Thanks in advance

Can 1/2 of a previcox 237 mg tablet cause a canine to have to urinate ? My 10 1/2 month old basset had 1 tonight for panostetis He seemed to need to go out but started to Pee a little in the house

Dog got into the Previcox, not sure how much he ate. Maybe a few pills. This was last night. Now he is acting strange. Skittish and afraid of walking on the tile floor. Eating and drinking okay. Should I be concerned? I have given him two does of Pepcid to help his stomach. His color is good and so are his stools.

My cat was spayed today and the doctor prescribed Previcox (firocoxib) 57 mg. I was checking the drug online, and i found out that it should not be given to cats and it might be fatal. I contacted my vet, but he said that he had prescribed this medication for cats before and it gave amazing results. I'd like to have a second professional opinion.

My dog has not been able to urinate since 3:30 am today even after getting several cups of water throughout the day. I would like to know if this is a symptom of kidney failure or if it could just be a bladder stone/blockage? She’s on several medications including SMZ-TMP, Previcox, Tramadol

Dog was given Previcox a couple years ago, gave him severe stomach issues and had to take him to the vet. He is having some pain in neck and back and Vet suggested Galliprant due to his kidney issues. What are the chances that if other pain med made him sick that Galliprant will? I am afraid to give it to him because he is feeling so bad I don't want to make him worse with a huge stomach upset?

I took my dog to the vet and they said she has a severe uti. They gave me metronidazole and amoxicillin. It has been 2 days and she is very lethargic so much so that she hardly wants to move at all. She had a diarrhea accident in the house and is still shaking as well. She is eating the bland canned food they gave us. Should I give it 3 to 5 days before truly worrying. Should I start giving her previcox again or is it only for arthritis pain?

My Cavalier is 13 y.o. with several health issues that are controlled by medications. He has started dragging one of his back legs. If helped up, he can sometimes get going and walk, but many times he falls and can't get his back end up. He takes Previcox and Glucosamine. We tried a wheelchair but he is too weak to hold it up, and he mostly naps during day, so he needs to be able to lay down. He is too old and has too many heart problems to have surgery. Are there any other options to help him?
