Manufactured by Troy Laboratories, this injectable solution is formulated to provide effective relief from conditions such as arthritis, musculoskeletal injuries, and post-operative pain.
Atrosite contains carprofen, a potent COX-2 inhibitor, that works by blocking the enzymes responsible for inflammation and pain, leading to rapid symptom relief.

? Atrosite is generally safe for both dogs and cats when administered according to the recommended dosage. However, it should not be used in pets with pre-existing liver or kidney problems, and it is important to follow your veterinarian’s instructions carefully.
