Anti-Inflammatory Drugs to Witness Healthy Growth Over the Forecast Period
Anti-inflammatory medications, known as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), are frequently used to manage your dog’s condition and can offer a dramatic improvement in mobility and quality of life. NSAIDs reduce the production of prostaglandins which drive inflammation associated with arthritis. They do this by blocking an enzyme called cyclooxygenase.
However, there are at least two forms of this enzyme cyclooxygenase-1 (COX-1) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and it is cox-2 which is believed to be the chief culprit for creating these inflammatory prostaglandins. COX-1 is recognised to produce prostaglandins that are beneficial within the body as they protect the stomach lining, aid in kidney function and help in clotting. Developments in NSAIDs in the last decade have created more COX-2 selective drugs which should reduce the side effects seen, however adverse reactions can still happen.
International companies such as Elanco provide FDA approved NSAIDs for treating arthritis. Galliprant (by Elanco) is a first-of-its-kind, targeted NSAID that treats canine osteoarthritis pain and inflammation. It’s a prescription-only, chewable osteoarthritis medicine for dogs that’s safe to use daily.
Therefore, owing to the effectiveness of anti-inflammatory drugs in treatment of canine arthritis and the availability of various brands from major companies, the segment is expected to witness healthy growth over the forecast period.
