{"product_id":"vc-1293","title":"Carprovet Chewable Tablet for Dogs","description":"\u003cp\u003eCarprofen is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) used in dogs to relieve pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis, soft-tissue surgery, and orthopedic procedures. It is one of the most prescribed canine NSAIDs in the United States and is sold under several brand names — Rimadyl, Carprovet, Carprieve, Novox — all of which are pharmaceutically equivalent generic versions of the same active ingredient. Carprofen works by selectively inhibiting the COX-2 enzyme that drives pain and swelling, while sparing much of the COX-1 activity that protects the stomach lining and kidneys.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat carprofen is used for\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVeterinarians prescribe carprofen for dogs with osteoarthritis (the slow, stiff getting up after a nap; reluctance on stairs; lameness after exercise), for control of post-surgical pain after spays, neuters, dental cleanings, mass removals, and orthopedic procedures, and for short-term relief of acute injuries and soft-tissue inflammation. The chewable beef-flavored tablets make it one of the easiest pain medications to administer, and the medication typically begins working within 1–2 hours of dosing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eImportant considerations\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarprofen is for dogs only — it is not approved for cats, who lack the enzyme needed to metabolize it safely. Give with food to reduce GI upset. Common side effects include vomiting, diarrhea, and decreased appetite; serious but rare effects include GI ulceration, kidney injury, and idiosyncratic liver reactions — call your veterinarian immediately if your dog stops eating, vomits repeatedly, develops black or tarry stool, or becomes jaundiced. Baseline bloodwork is recommended before starting long-term carprofen, with periodic rechecks every 6 months. Never combine carprofen with another NSAID or with corticosteroids (prednisone, prednisolone, dexamethasone) — the combination dramatically raises the risk of stomach ulcers and kidney damage. Use cautiously in dogs with kidney, liver, or bleeding disorders.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSmarty Vets dispenses both brand-name (Rimadyl) and generic (Carprovet, Carprieve, Novox) carprofen with a valid veterinary prescription.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClick \u003cstrong\u003eBuy on VetCove\u003c\/strong\u003e to order.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Carprovet®","offers":[{"title":"25mg \/ 1 tablet","offer_id":51853061882087,"sku":"vc-1293-3094-7511","price":0.56,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"25mg \/ 30 count bottle","offer_id":51858934661351,"sku":"vc-1293-3094-7513","price":25.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"25mg \/ 60 count bottle","offer_id":51858934694119,"sku":"vc-1293-3094-7514","price":39.19,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"25mg \/ 180 count bottle","offer_id":51858934726887,"sku":"vc-1293-3094-7512","price":100.02,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"75mg \/ 1 tablet","offer_id":51855017246951,"sku":"vc-1293-3095-7515","price":0.69,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"75mg \/ 30 count bottle","offer_id":51858934759655,"sku":"vc-1293-3095-7517","price":29.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"75mg \/ 60 count bottle","offer_id":51858934792423,"sku":"vc-1293-3095-7518","price":45.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"75mg \/ 180 count bottle","offer_id":51858934825191,"sku":"vc-1293-3095-7516","price":124.67,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100mg \/ 1 tablet","offer_id":51855017378023,"sku":"vc-1293-3093-7507","price":0.88,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100mg \/ 30 count bottle","offer_id":51858934857959,"sku":"vc-1293-3093-7509","price":33.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100mg \/ 60 count bottle","offer_id":51858934890727,"sku":"vc-1293-3093-7510","price":54.55,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100mg \/ 180 count bottle","offer_id":51858934923495,"sku":"vc-1293-3093-7508","price":158.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0698\/4387\/8119\/files\/100328_caf78f29-8aa3-4841-9f89-4728f197cef4.webp?v=1774103781","url":"https:\/\/www.smartyvets.com\/products\/vc-1293","provider":"Smarty Vets","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
