OTC pain
According to Redding and Papurt, aspirin is the "best and safest choice of
currently available non-prescription NSAIDSs for dog." [The previous
statement is made based on a comparison of 4 common NSAIDS -- (1)
acetylsalicylic acid (i.e., aspirin), (2) acetaminophen (Tylenol), (3)
Ibuprofen (i.e., Motrin, Advil which is highly toxic to cats) and (4)
Naproxen (Aleve) the safety of which has not been established in dogs.]
