REVIEWER: What a relief! - by

My Rhodesian Ridgeback is thirteen years old. We've been dealing with some old age issues. Lately she was starting to get shaky on her back legs. We then went to using Tramadol and it helped a lot with the pain. That worked for a while and then it became that she couldn't move without groaning or moaning. Laying down... moan and getting up moaning. She sounded miserable all the time. We started the Adequan We had just given her the fifth shot and we notice no moaning.. Next morning she just jumped up like her usual self. She's doing well. Didn't think I'd get puppy back but I do have a dog that isn't in constant pain. Watching them hurt is what kills us as owners.

Great product My Retriever mix had a back injury last year, suffered weak back legs and lost control of his bladder. Our vet said some of the pressure on his spine was due to arthritis in his back, and after the initial treatment of steroids started him on Adequan. He is a new dog now.

Adecuan is wonderful for my old dog, he has degenerative arthritis and he is very relieve since I am using Adequan. Intramuscular is more difficult to administer bet the results are better.
