Question for Dr. Doug

Hi Dr Doug

Is 25mg Deramaxx okay to give to Summer once a day, she's 6-years old and weighs 23, 24 pounds. Our vets not available right now and with this 15 to 0 degree weather, she is experiencing a lot of stiffness in her fount leg.

    Thanks, I just didn't want to start her on it, but she is having problems.

    LOL I haven't graduated to anything stronger than ibuprofen for myself yet, but if it doesn't warm up soon, that might be a different story. Thanks You.

    If your vet prescribed it for Summer, this is a perfect situation for it.

    BTW, I took my meloxicam this morning, the stiffness and pain is affecting me too.
