Veterinary Pharmacology and Anesthesia

This graduation thesis presents an overview of clinical use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs in dogs. NSAID-s are widely used in veterinary orthopedic patients, most commonly in postoperative period as well as in long-term treatment of osteoarthritis. The adverse effects of this particular group of drugs are mainly associated with either direct or indirect damaging effects on digestive system, kidneys or liver. With the development of new COX-2 selective NSAID-s the above mentioned adverse effects are largely minimalized.
