  • Current regulations on supplements for pets are lacking, making it tough for veterinarians to offer solid, evidence-based advice to dog owners about their effectiveness.
  • A study tested the efficacy of three treatments (EAB-277, 4CYTE, and meloxicam) against a placebo on dogs with hip osteoarthritis to observe changes in pain and mobility.
  • Results showed that both EAB-277 and meloxicam significantly improved dogs' pain levels and mobility, while 4CYTE didn’t show any notable difference from the placebo treatment.

This study investigates the susceptibility of common pathogens to totarol and assesses its clinical effectiveness in promoting wound healing in client-owned dogs with open wounds. Twenty-three client-owned dogs with open wounds were divided into two groups: (1) the treatment group (T-group) and (2) the control group (C-group). Clinical samples were collected from the wounds for the bacterial identification and determination of the minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) of totarol.

Article Synopsis
  • The study examined the efficacy of glucosamine hydrochloride and chondroitin sulfate, PCSO-524, EAB-277, and carprofen for treating hip osteoarthritis (OA) in dogs through a double-blinded clinical trial with 75 dogs.
  • At 2, 4, and 6 weeks, carprofen, PCSO-524, and EAB-277 showed significant increases in peak vertical force (PVF), indicating improved mobility, while glucosamine and placebo groups did not demonstrate significant changes.
  • The research concluded that PCSO-524 and EAB-277 were effective in enhancing PVF over time, similar to carprofen, whereas glucosamine/chondroitin did not
