Meloxivet is indicated for the treatment of pain and inflammation in companion animals and livestock, commonly used for musculoskeletal disorders, osteoarthritis, post-surgical pain, and acute trauma-related inflammation.
As a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID), Meloxivet works by inhibiting cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, reducing the production of prostaglandins that cause pain, swelling, and inflammatory responses in animals.
This medication is for veterinary use only. Always consult a veterinarian for proper dosing based on species, weight, and health condition. Monitor for gastrointestinal, renal, or hepatic side effects. Contraindicated in animals with known NSAID sensitivity, dehydration, or compromised organ function.
