Hi Jules - Previcox is a NSAID - of the Cox 2 inhibitor sort. They were a wonder drug for me when my psoriatic arthritis caused me to have to give up work. I went from being in constant pain to being able to hop, skip and jump about again. I sincerely hope that they have the same effect for Ollie. I really hope that he tolerates them as well as I did, although I was lucky the human equivalent of metacam (meloxicam) never upset me but they just stopped working.

 

Huge hugs and I hope Chris enjoys his birthday now that Ollie is feeling a little better

Well he seems quite bright this morning which is excellent news - is moving around the house ok and seems quite perky :wink: He's had another tablet with his brekkie so really hoping that they seem to be doing the trick.

 

He's had a couple of falls again this morning where his back legs just give way so we're going to try and get a bigger rug for the lounge so there's less laminate for him to walk on as I don't think that helps :unsure:

 

We've got enough meds until Tuesday and then I need to speak to the vet again - I know with the metacam it took a few days for the sickness to start so I guess its a case of waiting to see if these stay down okay really.
