Just put my 7yr old GSP down after 2 years on librela. Started having nerve issues in her low back and lost function of her back legs. I regret ever starting her on it.

My vet said it would give my dog, Trudy, another 3 months (bad knees) at most. I made the decision to have her euthanized.

This is the only thing that helped our 10 year old Irish Setter.

I tell everyone no , that if your vet try’s to put your dog on do not do it. I lost my dog after being on it for a little over 4 months. I have a sticker on my truck that says Say No To Librela. That is how much I’m against it.

I avoid using it with any patient i think may have concurrent neurological disease. Other patients it’s usually the last thing i try with goal of improving quality of life and i have had many patients do really well on it for many years. Thankfully I have not seen any severe side effects. I also like to have radiographic evidence of arthritis/take imaging to rule out other causes of lameness before trialing liberla.

I’ve used it in quite a few patients. Have not seen any neurological side effects YET. Used it on my own dog & she definitely became more ambulatory but she developed a severe deep pyoderma that I attributed to its use. I’ve had more than one patient that could not walk that became ambulatory after its use. I’m apprehensive every time I use it.

My 4 lb poodle has constant tremors for a month after her injection. We switched to daily meloxicam, which has worked well for her thus far. I never connected the injection with tremors until just now.

I have a 14 year old black lab that’s hard to watch walk without it. And it does sound bad but we are at peace with whenever she goes… doggie palliative care is so hard.

Librella was a last resort for us. And I’ll be so honest it has been life changing for my 16 year old lab. But I’m going to be honest it was a last resort choice and it worked. I am using all the other things for my 9 year old. My 16 already struggled with slight dementia and night walking so we just weighed our options and I’m thankful for over a year of success

Our senior dog was on Librella for 15 months and it gave her a new lease on life. In my opinion, the benefit far outweighed the risks.

My cocker spaniel has a history of pancreatitis. She was just recently hospitalized for 2 weeks. She has bone spurs and was on Galliprant, but now she isn’t on any medication due to pancreatitis. I was about to ask my vet about liberal. My vet said he was researching a medication that I need to check back with him. Thanks for talking about this

Is this the same for Solensia too?

Our Lab received Librella treatment the last 2.5 years of his life. He lived to 14.5 years and I know it is only because of Librella.

I always warn owners of the risks, but I recently saw how much it has helped some of these older dogs and given them a much better quality of life

Thank you for this information. I had been on the fence making this decision. I have now made that decision with this information.

Our vets say it’s a last resort. If nothing else is working and the quality of life is declining it’s like a last ditch effort. We haven’t had any horrible cases but I wish we had more info before starting to talk about it.

Started my 10 year old dog on Galliprant. She started having “fainting” type episodes in the mornings. Xray shows enlarged heart. Vet doesn’t think there is correlation. Took her off and the episodes stopped. My research shows no trials in dogs with heart disease. Echocardiogram on the 19th. Should this be reported by my vet?

In my clinic, so far it’s been amazing! I’m so glad we haven’t seen anything crazy yet. I have definitely seen horror stories about it though. And on the other hand, iv personally seen it change a dogs life. It’s crazy

I have a 10 year old gsd my vet wanted me to use it. I opted for Adequan and pain management with NSAIDs. He is now not painful but still seems neurological and I am glad I didn’t go Librela
