Beransa: Taking The Pain Out Of Arthritis
Beransa is a new type of medication that is specifically designed to treat osteoarthritis pain in dogs – it is unlike anything else we have seen before.
It is considered a safe and effective treatment for managing osteoarthritis in dogs. As a monoclonal antibody, Beransa targets and neutralises a specific protein involved in the pain process, helping to reduce pain and inflammation within the joint.
How is it given?
Treatment is given via convenient monthly injections, removing the challenge of daily pain medication.
It’s crucial to keep up with monthly Beransa treatment as skipping or delaying doses can lead to a flare-up of pain, impacting their quality of life.
What to expect?
Beransa is a long-acting treatment that requires consistent administration over time to reach its full therapeutic effect. While some dogs may experience initial pain relief sooner, it typically takes up to six months of regular injections for Beransa to build up to its optimal level in the body and deliver maximum benefits for osteoarthritis management.
Beransa has a positive safety profile and is generally well tolerated, especially when compared to other arthritis medications, such as anti-inflammatories.
What Other Arthritis Treatments Are There?
There is no cure for osteoarthritis. With proper management, the effects of osteoarthritis can be substantially reduced, enabling dogs to live happier and more active lives. Working in partnership with your vet to devise a complete care program can improve the quality of life for your dog.
The most effective osteoarthritis management often requires a combined approach. You can learn more in our designated arthritis blog posts:
