Recommendation As A Supplement For Dogs

The recommended initial period is four to six weeks; however, some dogs may respond sooner. The number of Cosequin^® DS chewable tablets may then be reduced to the maintenance level. The chewable tablets may be fed directly or crumbled and mixed with food.

Dog’s Weight	Initial 4 to 6 Week Period	Maintenance Level▲
10-24 lbs.*	1 daily (1/2 in the morning & 1/2 in the evening) *(under 10 lbs, 1/2 daily)	1/2 daily (tablets are scored)
25-49 lbs.	2 daily (1 in the morning & 1 in the evening)	1 daily
50-100 lbs.	3 daily (2 in the morning & 1 in the evening)	1-2 daily
Over 100 lbs.	4 daily (2 in the morning & 2 in the evening)	2 daily

▲Once consistent response has been seen, these maintenance levels may be reduced to every other day. The maintenance level can also be used long-term on healthy dogs to help support their joints. Visit cosequin.com
