Q2: How does Vedco Novox work as an anti-inflammatory for dogs?
Ans: Novox is Vedco's anti-inflammatory for dogs, containing carprofen, a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. According to VCA Hospitals, carprofen is an NSAID used to treat pain and inflammation in dogs, typically prescribed for osteoarthritis or post-surgical recovery. It is a prescription product and must be given under veterinary supervision.
Q3: How does Vedco NutriVed O.F.A. work as a dog skin and coat supplement?
Ans: As a dog skin and coat supplement, NutriVed O.F.A. provides microencapsulated omega-3 fatty acids, including EPA, DHA, and DPA, plus omega-6 fatty acids, vitamins A, D3, E, and zinc. These nutrients support healthy skin barrier function, promote a shiny coat, and address common fatty acid or vitamin deficiencies in dogs.
Q4: Does Vedco make an antiseptic spray for dogs?
Ans: Yes. Vedco Chlorhex 2X 4% Spray is a veterinary-grade antiseptic spray for dogs containing chlorhexidine gluconate, used for routine antiseptic cleansing of skin. Vedco also offers Swimmer's Ear Astringent, a 4-oz antiseptic drying gel that creates an ideal environment for healthy ears in dogs after swimming or bathing.

Ans: Yes. NutriVed Chewable Vitamins offer immune support for dogs by providing essential vitamins A, D3, E, B-complex, and C, along with antioxidants such as zinc and selenium that help protect cells from damage.

Q6: Does Vedco offer dry eye drops for dogs?
Ans: Vedco's ophthalmic range includes Tear Stain Soft Chews to manage tear-related staining and eye-area irritation. While Vedco does not market a dedicated dry eye drops SKU for dogs, dogs with dry eye syndrome (keratoconjunctivitis sicca) should always be evaluated by a vet, as artificial tears and prescription eye medications require professional guidance for safe use.
Q7: Does Vedco make dog teeth cleaning chews?
Ans: Vedco's oral hygiene line centres on Fresh Mouth Oral Spray rather than chewable dental treats. While true dog-teeth-cleaning chews are sold under other brands on HardyPaw, Vedco Fresh Mouth Spray complements them by removing food debris, reducing plaque buildup, and freshening breath as part of a daily oral care plan recommended by vets.
Q8: How does Vedco support urinary health for dogs?
Ans: Vedco offers urinary health for dogs through DLM-9 Oral Gel, a malt-flavored DL-Methionine supplement designed to support urinary tract health alongside hairball management. DL-Methionine helps acidify urine, which can be useful for pets prone to certain urinary mineral imbalances when used under veterinary guidance.
