UsesOnsior tablets are indicated for the control of postoperative pain and inflammation associated with soft tissue surgery in pets more than 5.5 lbs and four months of age or older, for up to a maximum of three days.
Possible Side EffectsPlease contact your veterinarian if the following adverse reactions occur: decrease in appetite, vomiting, change in bowel movements, such as diarrhea or change in stool color, change in drinking or urination, or change in behavior, such as depression or restlessness.
Drug & Food InteractionsOnsior tablets should not be used in pets that have a hypersensitivity to Robenacoxib or known intolerance to nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
Precautions
The use of fluid therapy during surgery is recommended to decrease potential renal complications. Appetite should be monitored—stop administration if appetite decreases or if your pet becomes lethargic. Please consult with your veterinarian before giving to pets younger than 4 months of age and weighing less than 5.5 lbs, pets used for breeding or in pregnant or lactating pets.

How does Onsior work?
Onsior is a coxib NSAID that is rapidly absorbed, persists at the site of inflammation and is rapidly cleared from the bloodstream.
Is Onsior safe?
Onsior has been shown to be well-tolerated when administered at a dose of 2 mg/kg (injection and tablets) to dogs, and at a dose of 2 mg/kg (injection) and 1 mg/kg (tablets) to cats for up to a maximum of 3 days.
Is Onsior effective?
Onsior has been shown to be effective at controlling the postoperative pain and inflammation associated with soft-tissue surgery in dogs greater than 5.5 lbs and younger than 4 months of age, and orthopedic surgery, ovariohysterectomy and castration in cats greater than 5.5 lbs and younger than 4 months of age, for up to a maximum of 3 days.
Is Onsior convenient?
Because the injectable formulation has identical dosing for dogs and cats, surgical protocols can be streamlined and may reduce the risk of dosing errors. The availability of both injectable and oral formulations make Onsior convenient to administer in the hospital and at home.

Take the edge off
By Sammy on Jul 24, 2020
Molly hips are painful and arthritic. She is so unbalanced. I can see a Beneficial difference in her since adding Onsior to her RX program. She appears to be moving a bit more when before she just couldn’t. It made a difference. We are both happier.

Excellent product
By CatMom on Apr 3, 2020
The Onsior tablets relieve inflammation and give my pet comfort and mobility while healing from an accident that dislocated his hip. Though normally used as a 3-day protocol, my pet is taking them daily while he recuperates. Chewy’s pricing saves money and trips to the vet for refills. Thanks, Chewy!

Mixed results
By Rain on Feb 19, 2020
Ive had this prescribed before and didnt pay attention. Last year, I did pay attention. Cat had major intestinal surgery to remove a blockage. Was prescribed this afterwards, but was instructed "half a pill every 12 hours for 3 days" and only if cat showed signs of pain. 10 months later, same surgery is done again. It wasnt prescribed this time because second surgery was "less invasive", but still to remove a blockage. However I will probably consult with my normal vet because the first time it seemed to work well. 4 stars because it seems to work well, but weve had few enough experiences to tell if it actually makes a difference.
