Most prescriptions are delivered within 3-5 days.Canine osteoarthritis (OA) is both a common and chronic condition that many dogs are diagnosed with. Rimadyl is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory prescription medication (NSAID) used to help relieve the pain and inflammation associated with OA, joint abnormalities, and can also help relieve pain from surgery. Over 26 million dogs have been treated with Rimadyl, making it one of the most trusted NSAID prescribed by vets. By giving your dog one or two tasty, liver-flavored chewable tablets a day, you can help manage his pain and inflammation, so he can stay active and continue his daily dog duties.
Proudly sourced directly from the manufacturer or their approved distributor. Guaranteed genuine and backed by the manufacturer.

Rimadyl is indicated for the relief of pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis and for the control of postoperative pain associated with soft tissue and orthopedic surgeries in dogs.
Contact your veterinarian if your pet is experiencing bloody, black or tarry stools as this could be an indication of a more serious problem.
If your pet is being given aspirin or another NSAID or any an over-the-counter cough, allergy, or pain medication, or any steroid drug, be sure to discuss the possible interactions with your veterinarian. Other drugs not listed may also cause reactions. Discuss all prescribed and over-the-counter medications your pet is taking with your vet.
Before taking Rimadyl, discuss with your veterinarian if your pet has an allergy to aspirin, any other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAID), or is lactating or pregnant.

For the control of postoperative pain, administer approximately 2 hours before the procedure. Rimadyl chewable tablets are scored and dosage should be calculated in half-tablet increments. Tablets can be halved by placing the tablet on a hard surface and pressing down on both sides of the score. Rimadyl chewable tablets are palatable and willingly consumed by most dogs when offered by the pet parent.

This has been a great help for our senior dogs. At 14 years old it is very hard for them some days, this medication helps them move a little easier.
Chewy delivery of this product is wonderful where another company dropped the ball. GOOD JOB!!!
Hailey is getting around much better than a few months ago. The rimadyl has helped her to be able to get around without too much pain.
Considerably more affordable than through our vet. Prompt delivery. Our dog never balks at taking them as prescribed for painful aging joints.
My dog is INCREDIBLY fussy, won't eat cheese, bacon and forget about pill pockets. Hard to believe she was once a stray. Getting meds into her in the past has been a nightmare for us both. She will actually eat these either crushed up in her food or halves at a time and alternating with regular treats. She is about 13 years young and I have not seen anymore limping since I started giving her these. They are easy to break in half and I bought a pill crusher for when I sprinkle them over her food. I'm so happy that these are helping my girl!! Very highly recommended!
I would strongly suggest that pet owners be very careful when administering Rimadyl. My dog suddenly died of kidney failure within 1 year of starting her on Rimadyl. In addition, I know of at least 2 other dogs that died suddenly while taking this medication as well, no cause of death identified. All three of these cases were reported to the drug manufacturer, and in all three cases the manufacturer refused to even record the deaths as "possible" related Rimadyl deaths, because the canines tended to be older. It is clear that the manufacturer is not properly recording potential adverse reactions to Rimadyl. Rimadyl is used for canine arthritis, and arthritis is usually associated with older dogs. Yet if an older dog dies while taking this medication, the manufacturer simply identifies the death as age-related, and excludes/disregards any correlation to Rimadyl. Very convenient. After what happened to my dog & the other 2 dogs, I would NEVER administer Rimadyl again to any canine. Too many canine deaths that I have seen potentially related to this medication, and worse yet the manufacturer disregards and does not seem to be counting possible drug interactions to Rimadyl. Not a drug I would recommend for a beloved pet.
I used to purchase this from my vet but Chewy has this for almost 50% less than what the vet was charging me. Exact same medication. If you can get your vet to give you a script I would huighly suggest going through Chewy to buy this.
I originally got this med from my vet after my 13 year old English Setter was having difficulty with stumbling on his back legs and sometimes having difficulty getting up. They worked so well for him that I decided to continue with this med and ordered them from Chewy using auto-ship, since Chewy's prices are less than the vet. My dog is prancing around a lot better now. Thanks Chewy for your great service.
I love chewy. This was my first time using the prescription part which was simple to use. The meds came in about 3days.
This is from my golden retriever, Hank. He LOVES Chewy because they made it super simple to get all his prescriptions from his vet and charge his owner such a low price that she can afford to keep him pain free for the rest of his life.
