Cosequin® Soft Chews Plus MSM for Dogs
Cosequin® is a patented scientifically researched nutritional
supplement dispensed by thousands of veterinarians to help dogs
maintain healthy joints. As dogs age it is common for their joints to
become less flexible which impacts their mobility and quality of life.
You may have noticed that your dog has difficulty walking up stairs or
jumping on the bed. While he used to be eager to play now he is content
to rest. Even at younger ages some dogs are subject to joint health
concerns which affect flexibility and mobility
What is Cosequin® for Dogs?
Cosequin® plays an important role in maintaining optimal joint
function. Healthy articular (joint) cartilage is crucial to joint
utility. Cosequin® helps support cartilage production and protect
existing cartilage from breakdown. Cosequin® is the only
glucosamine/chondroitin sulfate supplement that has been shown safe,
effective and bioavailable in peer-reviewed, published, controlled,
U.S. veterinary studies. Cosequin® is manufactured following standards
similar to those practiced by the pharmaceutical industry.
Cosequin® is available in Double Strength (DS) capsules and tasty
chewable tablets and in Single Strength (SS) capsules and soft chews
for dogs.
