Pet Medications in the U.S., 5th Edition

In this fifth edition, Pet Medications in the U.S. analyzes the market for prescription and over-the-counter medications for dogs and cats, with a particular focus on brand-name products used by consumers. These include prescription, over-the-counter (OTC or “retail”), and ethical products (nonprescription medications whose distribution is restricted by the manufacturer to veterinarians). The primary focus of this report is on antiparasitics (flea, tick, heartworm, etc.), but it also covers market-shaping developments in other areas including cancer, cognitive dysfunction, mood disorder, pain management, and obesity/diabetes.

Animal health products for production animals and horses are excluded from this market analysis, as are nutritional supplements for horses and companion animals, the latter of which are covered in Packaged Facts’ April 2017 report, Pet Supplements in the U.S., 6th Edition.
