SPONDILITIS
AND OSTEOARTHRITIS
We received the
following information 18 august 2004:
"The medication I give
our dog which has spondolitis and (I believe) osteo-arthritis as
well) is "Extra strength" Chondroitin Complex Gel (500mg
glucosamine sulphate, 400 mg chondroitin sulphate, 15mg citrus
bioflavonoids and 0.33mg manganese per capsule).
The important element is
that it is SULPHATE. For humans they recommend 3 capsules per day.
I give her 1 capsule per day. You might not have seen it, but these
days she jumps off the ground on all four legs which was impossible
before. I also think that giving her dog food that is especially
for older dogs has made a difference. Long may she live !!"
