There is nothing a lot more discouraging for pet owners than to see their older family pets have difficulty moving because of stiff arthritic joints or spinal disease. Even younger family pets that develop arthritis secondary to ligament tears such as cruciate ligament tears or exposure to tick-borne diseases like Lyme disease, may develop signs of uncomfortable movement and lameness.

That is when terrific joint products such as Glyco-Flex by Vetriscience can dramatically alleviate symptoms in lots of pets. The main ingredient in this product, Perna, has been studied in human medicine for years, and can drastically help family pets with painful or swollen joints.

Perna is naturally high in glucosamine and chondroitin sulphate and is also combined with MSM in lots of of the Glyco-Flex lines for additional relief of joint discomfort. depending upon the severity of joint issues, product options include Glyco-Flex I, II or III. Side effects are rare but may include diarrhea and/or vomiting.

Before giving any glucosamine product to a diabetic pet, the pet’s veterinarian must first be consulted.   If Glyco-Flex alone does not help minimize symptoms, than one can try other natural supplements like Proanthozone, Yucca Intensive, or prescription medications such as Tramadol or other nonsteroidal anti inflammatory medications such as Metacam or Rimadyl.

When giving this product to their family pets a client may ask why the product has a strong fish smell. That’s because Perna is actually the green lipped sea mussel, but it certainly is a tasty mussel for a lot of dogs, and one that can offer dramatic symptomatic relief in a lot of pets.
