KETAMINE
When used in pain relief, it relaxes muscles and induces sleepiness, which helps control chronic pain in animals. The medicine serves a dual purpose, easing the animal’s pain and providing a calming effect. However, due to the dissociative effect, the medication must be used in a very controlled manner. **Librela was not tested for drug interactions. Ketamine affects the central nervous system so it is important to consider this option cautiously while Librela or Solensia is in the pet’s system. https://www.bap.org.uk/pdfs/Veterinary_use_of_ketamine_KC.pdf
PALMITOYLETHANOLAMIDE (PEA)
Palmitoylethanolamide (PEA) is an endogenous fatty acid amide. PEA binds to cells in the body to reduce pain and inflammation. Research has indicated PEA may be beneficial for:
- Nerve pain in common conditions such as arthritis, Chiari-like Malformation (CM), and Syringomyelia (SM).
- Cystitis and chronic urinary tract disease.
- Osteoarthritis pain and neuropathic pain.
- Allergies (reduces itching and skin lesions).
- Mast cell tumors
- Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis

PROTEASE ENZYME
Recommended by Josie Beug DVM: Because Librela is a protein, and because proteins are broken down by the enzyme protease, LARGE doses of the enzyme protease might help the body break down the Librela faster, allowing it to exit the body sooner. Please speak with your veterinarian about what is considered a safe "large" dose of protease. https://www.amazon.com/Transformation-Enzymes-Protease-Circulation-Elimination/dp/B07DD261W1/ref=asc_df_B07DD261W1/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=692875362841&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=9913292088520285501&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9011792&hvtargid=pla-2281435179298&psc=1&mcid=379b8179c9443f67b7c0d2252be62575&hvocijid=9913292088520285501-B07DD261W1-&hvexpln=73&gad_source=1
