Metacam Oral Suspension for Dogs (1.5 mg/mL)

Metacam (meloxicam) is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) designed to alleviate pain and inflammation in dogs. This honey-odoured, yellowish oral suspension is formulated for ease of administration and palatability. It works by targeting the enzymes that trigger inflammatory responses, making it highly effective for managing both acute and chronic musculoskeletal disorders. The 180 mL bottle includes a specialised measuring syringe to ensure accurate dosing based on the dog's body weight.
