Special offer: now 10% off original full report price

This report, Pet Medications in the U.S., 6th Edition, examines the retail market for medications for dogs and cats, with a focus on products purchased directly by consumers. These products include prescription, over-the-counter (also called OTC or retail products), and “ethical” products (nonprescription medications that are only distributed to veterinarians).

The primary focus of Pet Medications in the U.S., 6th Edition is on the core types of antiparasitics/parasiticides—heartworm prevention, flea/tick prevention, heartworm/flea combo products, and other dewormers (some of which also target other external parasites such as mosquitoes, flies, ear mites, lice, and sarcoptic mange, and/or other types of internal parasites such as hookworms, roundworms, whipworms, and tapeworms), but it also covers market-shaping developments in areas including anxiety, pain management, cancer, cognitive dysfunction, and obesity/diabetes.
