How does Metacam Solution for Injection compare to other approved injectable NSAIDs in the US?
Metacam Solution for Injection does not need to be refrigerated. It is not thick and viscous, thus it easily pulls through small gauge needles and requires approximately one-half the volume to treat the same bodyweight of dog as other injectable NSAIDS. For example, 1 mL of Metacam Solution for Injection will treat 55 pounds of dog, compared to 2 mL of Rimadyl® which will treat 50 pounds of dog.
