How much does Nutraquin cost?
Discussion
One of our new rescue GSDs has a prescription for Nutraquin, for arthritis. We were given a box of 60 when we picked her up and I'm curious how and where to get new supplies.
I can't find anything on line, even places that promote it don't give a price. It also says prescription required.
I have registered both dogs at our local Vets for Pets, but will I have to go for a visit, examination, diagnosis etc etc, to get some more?
They are both now insured at Petplan, but due to pre-existing vet records The female has exclusions on arthritis, ear and skin disorders. But they still charge the same for each dog: £36 a month.
They are called Sky and Blue.

I'm a little confused that the centres vet swapped her medication from Pardale V tablets to Nutraquin starting the very day we collected them.
They did tell me they had had the vet to check them out a few days before we went to collect, but it seems a little unusual.
I've heard a lot about the Yumove so I may order some. Is it worth giving it to both dogs, as a precaution?
I currently take Glucosamine myself, just as a precaution against joint problems, as the years are passing quickly.

They gave us enough Pardale for a one week overlap of the meds.
If there was a painkiller in the Pardale I would be curious how they have decided she doesn't need that any more.
I have a copy of the dogs history and it seems she had a spate of problems at the end of last year. Allergic excema, urine incontinence and the arthritis. Then their elderly owned died end of January, so I'm guessing maybe they weren't receiving a lot of attention or healthy care towards the end.

Painkillers aren't always need all the time. She may have had an acute episode that just needed a short course of treatment, difficult to say for sure though. Probably best to ask the vets who px the treatment initially.
I've phoned their old vet a few times, all they seem to be able to tell me is what is on the records. I could go over there and pop in, may be a bit more productive, it is but 25 miles away. Gassing Station | All Creatures Great & Small | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
