Administration as a supplement for dogs
The recommended initial administration period is four to six weeks; however, some dogs may respond in a shorter period of time. The number of Cosequin®DS capsules may then be reduced to the maintenance level. The capsules can be pulled apart and the contents sprinkled on the pet's food. Wet or moist food is preferred to ensure that the pet gets the entire amount.
