Musculoskeletal Adverse Events Associated with Librela with Andrew Armitage

August 12, 2026·44 min
Episode Description from the Publisher

Dr Andrew Armitage from Greenside Referrals in the UK joined Ané for a Facebook Live where they discussed the adverse events associated with the use of Librela. In the live session, Andy shared a short presentation that includes radiographs and descriptions of the bony changes he sees in some of the dogs that experience adverse events from the use of Librela. He explains that we typically see one of two patterns - rapidly progressive joint destruction, which can occur within 2 treatments; and insidious periarticular mineralisation syndrome, which typically develops over a longer period of use. This has a few different presentations, with the strangest being popcorn mineralisation and stegosaurus exostosis... The full recording with the presentation is available in the Onlinepethealth members' libraries or on our YouTube Channel. For the podcast, we have removed the presentation and are instead sharing the discussion, questions, and conversation with Andy and the community.   Learn more about Andrew Armitage: https://www.stemcellsscotland.co.uk/ Bookmark the next Vet Rehab Summit: https://vetrehabsummit.com/ Learn more about Paw Prosper's special offer: https://pawprosper.com/OPH Learn more about Paw Prosper: https://pawprosper.com/ To learn about Onlinepethealth, watch a free webinar, or join any of our Facebook groups, click here: https://onlinepethealth.com/podcast
