Yes, it is a non steroidal anti inflammatory (NSAID). This class of medication is commonly used to treat the discomfort of hip dysplasia and other joint conditions. Depending on the degree of dysplasia or discomfort, Bruno may need additional treatments or supplements. This would be a concern to discuss further with your veterinarian.
