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® Double Strength (DS) Chewables are tasty soft chews for dogs.
