Nutramaxlab website says Dasuquin is only available thru vets. Told me via email to only get it thru vet. So Is Amazon product a knockoff? Thanks"

My Vet told me to get this through Amazon since it is the same and costs less.

Not that I'm aware of, the bottle reads Nutramax laboratories,inc right on the front. I can't imagine Amazon selling knockoffs?? Maybe they get a % of profit from vets. Hope this helps you. I love this product & will continue to order it for my german shepherd.

I bought DASUQUIN with msm that's for pain, I got the chewable tablets from Amazon without a vet. A friend of mine got the soft chews from Amazon and said they were hard, then looked at the expiration date and it was almost up so be careful. Mine expired 2018. She had no problem correcting the situation.

In my experience, no. My vet charged me $101. I was outraged, ordered the same product, for a little more than half that. I compared the two bottles. I read every line, every word. They were exactly the same. The receptionist told me to return the bottle, and go for the better value. If this were a knock- off, something, even something little would have to be different on the label.

I have no doubts that the product I get from Amazon is the real thing. Each packet looked just like the packets from the vet and the money is not enough to entice some crook to try to copy it (packet especially).

Because we did...but Amazon refunded the money, I ordered another one and the second time Igot a legitimate product. Be proactive with your purchase and look at the container before you use it. The bottle should have an MD after the nutra luxe. If it doesn't then call Amazon customer serviceand they will take good care of you.

I'm not sure why Amazon is able to provide the same product- it's not a knock-off, but the vet's price is always higher than Amazon. My 14 year old lab has been on this for over a year and she can jump up like she did in her younger days with 2 tabs per day. My daughter told me about it as she works for a vet and even though her dogs are younger, it is cold in Montana and this product keeps the 'guys' from having stiff joints in the am.

First, check the dosage and make sure it is correct for his weight. I'm giving Dasuquin to my 'almost' 12 year old Irish Setter. She started with 2 per day (1 in the a.m. & 1 in the p.m.) and is down to just 1 in the a.m. She has always had a sensitive stomach and takes Acidophilus (not a Rx) along with the Dasuquin. I also give all my Irish yogurt every a.m. It's possible the lactobacilius acidophilus would be helpful. This product has not seemed to bother my older girl.

I'm a tech and can answer. What you got from vet was " promotional" item. Every company from Bayer to Purina send reps out to vets offices, if its a product they like or would consider selling, then they are given a atrial amount. Everything from topical flea drops to dog food, these are often in sample sizes and packaging unlike what is available in stores. The contents however are the same. If package has been exposed, improperly stored, or damaged it can greatly affect things like medicine, food, and probiotics, which is what this. In my professional opinion that is the case here ormitem is expired. I'm a tech and can answer. What you got from vet was " promotional" item.

I have been told by my vet to purchase the product. If you buy from Amazon you can not return the prosuct. The last batch we bought from Amazon was ineffective,

I don't know, but I want to stick my nose in and strongly discourage you from attempting a Costco flea treatment. This was such a horrible experience for our family--sick, vomiting, lethargic cat, and all of us were itchy. I almost *never* buy name-brand products, but I would really steer clear of this and get your pets a vet-approved medicine. We wound up with Revolution for our cat and it worked very well. Good luck!

I think that the difference is the texture. The 150 Count Dasuquin is a nickle shaped tablet. My dog did not have any problem taking them, but a friends dog preferred the soft Chews. The price difference from what I can see is due to count. My dog uses the tablets. Although I introduced hem with a touch of peanut butter because I did not want him to develop an aversion in the beginning, he will now eat them plain.

Our vet, who is rated one of the best of Northern Virginia, indicates there are ingredients in Dasuquin that allow better absorption of the product, and he has seen differences between Cosequin and Dasuquin in the same pets. In our use, only with Dasuquin,we have noticed positive behavioral changes.

No, it's not true. shame on your vet. My vet TOLD me to get her follow up dosages through the internet because it's cheaper. The vet just wants the markup.

I would visit Advocare's actual website and there is all the info you need there from ingredient lists, testimonials, FAQs and more. You can also click contact a distributor to have an actual person help answer any of your questions directly. The products were not intended to be sold via amazon, etc. Advocare provides the highest quality customer service and guarantees their products when they are bought correctly, I.e. through an actual person or their personal web page on Advocare's site. I wouldn't trust anyone selling through amazon, eBay, Craigslist, etc.

See my one star review - Amazoner. I question whether their high claimed epa-dha values are accurate. This material seems to be just run off from sardine processing plants, which they don't distill. I've asked them for an independent testing assay - waiting for evidence.

I had the same question as I wanted to see if it was same dosage as Cosequin DS (which I currently give to my dog). Had to go to product site Nutramax to find it:http://www.nutramaxlabs.com/vet/products/cosequin-hip-and-joint-support.aspxIt's under administration link there -- funny thing is that the glucosamine mg is same as Cosequin DS but they don't list a lower dosage maintenance level like they do on that product.

To my knowledge its the same. When I first purchased this online I compared it to the bottle and pills from the vet and they were identical . What I can say for sure is that its helped my dogs tremendously. Also, there is another kind of Dasuquin with MSM in it (http://www.amazon.com/Nutramax-Dasuquin-Dogs-Under-Pounds/dp/B000MD2H3S/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid;=1360781842&sr;=8-2&keywords;=dasuquin) and that bottle is a bit different. So check to see if maybe that is the stuff your vet is giving you. Good luck!!

I think it is the same since most of the on-line pet product sites do require a veterinary prescription, but a few do not. The bottle seems to be identical to the manufacturers one disp0layed on the manufacturers web site.

I do not understand why Amazon lets questions like this come through. Go to the Immune Tree web site and see for yourself or call them if you are not satisfied by what you see. I am not a sales rep for them. I use the product and am happy with it.
