{"product_id":"amantadine-capsules-40mg-compounded","title":"Amantadine Capsules 40mg - Compounded","description":"\u003cp\u003eAmantadine contributes to pain relief in dogs and cats by reducing the development of sensitisation to pain in the central nervous system (e.g. brain and spinal cord). Pain can develop due to 'over-amplification' of the signals by the nervous system, termed 'central sensitisation'. Central sensitization is a major component in the development of chronic and neuropathic pain; both of these can be very difficult to treat. Amantadine should be considered as part of the initial multimodal therapy for any patient that has moderate to severe chronic pain and as an add-on drug for patients that have worsening chronic pain despite presumably adequate pain control and no worsening of the inciting disease. The first-choice drug treatment for dogs and cats with chronic osteoarthritis pain is usually a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). Therapy with an NSAID alone may become ineffective in more advanced osteoarthritis.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Compounded","offers":[{"title":"50 or 100 Capsules","offer_id":53219632709995,"sku":null,"price":126.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0979\/0249\/4059\/files\/Product_image.webp?v=1778139162","url":"https:\/\/pillsforpaws.com.au\/products\/amantadine-capsules-40mg-compounded","provider":"Pills for Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
