Question

Can I give my 4 year old dog Celebrex 200mg Capsule for her hip and joint problems. Pet's info: Dog | American Pit Bull Terrier | Female | spayed | 65 lbs

No, please do not use Celebrex for A zul. There have been no safety studies for use in dogs to determine proper dosing or if it will cause toxicity or negative side effects. Because there are no safe over the counter pain medications for dogs you will have to contact your veterinarian to prescribe you medication for hip pain. Any anti inflammatory pain medication does carry risk if side effects so it's important to discuss those with your veterinarian. Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach!
