About Carprieve
Carprieve is a prescription nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) for dogs. Its active ingredient, carprofen, helps control pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis and postoperative pain following soft tissue and orthopedic surgery. Carprieve should be used according to a veterinarian’s instructions.
Carprofen is available under several brand and generic names, which can make comparing medications confusing. Carprieve is an FDA-approved generic form of carprofen. For pet owners prescribed Carprieve for dogs, PetPawsRx carries Carprieve caplets and chewable tablets in multiple strengths and quantities. The appropriate product depends on the prescription written for your dog.
Like other NSAIDs, Carprieve can cause side effects, including gastrointestinal, kidney, or liver problems. Dogs taking certain medications or living with some health conditions may face additional risks. A veterinarian can evaluate your dog’s medical history and current medications before prescribing Carprieve. Follow your veterinarian’s instructions and contact them if you notice concerning changes during treatment.
