Librela is a relatively new treatment for the management of osteoarthritis related pain in dogs.

As with all drugs there are side-effects which need to be carefully weighed against potential benefits when considering its use in a particular dog.

This is not always easy however, especially when information regarding the use of a product on a large scale is either unavailable or limited.
This aim of this special report is to help pet parents make fully informed decisions regarding the use of anti-NGF, based on an understanding of:

  • What the active ingredient Bedinvetmab is
  • What anti Nerve Growth Factor (NGF) antibodies do
  • How targeting and neutralising NGF in dogs might impact health in ways other than intended
