Galliprant 100 mg for Dogs

This targeted approach ensures effective pain relief while minimizing the risk of adverse effects, making it a safer option for long-term management of your dog's joint health. With Galliprant, your dog can enjoy a better quality of life, remaining active and pain-free.

How it Works:
Galliprant is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) that works by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, which are chemicals in the body that cause pain and inflammation.
By blocking the production of prostaglandins, Galliprant helps to reduce pain and inflammation in the joints affected by osteoarthritis, improving the comfort and mobility of dogs with this condition.
