- Musculoskeletal Support for Pets: Veterinary Formulas Products
If I was to highlight the top rehab products:
1. Canine Musculoskeletal Support -Support for entire musculoskeletal system; bones, joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments, nerves, blood vessels, and organs that support these tissues including the liver, kidneys, and adrenal glands. Supports optimal musculoskeletal function
2. Ligaplex II (chronic cases) –nutritional support for ligaments, tendons, muscles, connective tissues. Improves strength and
integrity of ligaments/tendons.
3. Ligaplex I (acute cases)- contains 40% Manganese. And with any spinal disease there maybe need for additional Manganese.
4. Boswellia Complex–from the Medi-Herb line of supplements, an herbal anti-inflammatory combination(boswellia, celery seed, ginger, turmeric). Does not have the liver/kidney/GI side effects of NSAIDs. Note:MUST BE GIVEN WITH FOOD AND SOME FAT. These ingredients are fat soluble, so add some butter, oil or fatty acids to the dosing. Also, Boswellia needs 5 times the dose to get the same effect if given on an empty stomach.
5. Calcifood Powder–cold-processed bone meal, supplies building blocks for all connective tissues.
6. Cataplex A-C-P combines the activity of Cataplex A, Cataplex C, and the rutin factors (Cyruta-Plus-collagen builder). It is useful for general resistance to infections and support of blood, epithelial, and connective tissues.

connective tissues (cartilage, tendons, ligaments, etc.).
