Pain Management Products
for Dogs and Cats
April 2007
Pain
management is one of the leading topics in veterinary medicine today.
While pain management products for dogs and cats represented
a
minor part of the pharmaceuticals market a decade ago, they now represent
a substantial market segment of $200 million, with potential still to be tapped.
The
new Brakke Consulting report, Pain Management Products for Dogs
and Cats, includes information on these recent market entries
and how they have performed since their introduction, as well as how
their introduction has affected the market. It also addresses
how attitudes toward pain management in veterinary medicine have changed
in the past several years.
The study includes information such as:
- Overview of acute and
chronic pain in small animals
- Review
of products currently used to treat pain in
dogs and cats
- Pain management products in development
- Advertising budgets for the leading NSAI products
- Review of nutritional supplements used for chronic pain, with emphasis
on glucosamine
- Review of new theraputic diets for joint care
- 2007 survey of small animal veterinarians regarding use
of pain management products
