The place I usually order my Deramaxx from is on backorder...I then checked a slew of other sites and it is all backordered. I found out there is a manufacturing delay in Dermaxx because they are upgrading their facility. It could be several months before it is in production again. Has anyone heard of this???
I am really starting to freak out because THIS IS THE ONLY drug that has eased Laddie's mobility with his arthritis. He is nearly 11 years old and is 90lbs and has an extreme sensitivity to medication...Deramaxx is the only thing that has worked for him (Rimadyl caused him horrible side effects).
Does Deramaxx have a generic...a generic for Rimadyl would be COMPLETELY unacceptable. ACCKKKK.
I will be calling my veterinarian tomorrow...but even if I find a few pills on a website here and there, that won't help me when I am out again in a month! He takes one 75mg pill daily with food. It has made a world of difference for him and this frightens me! It has been a lifesaver and is giving him a decent quality of life!
Re: Deramaxx manufacturing delay, HELP!
After 2 years of IF workups/treatments and 2 IUIs, we have closed the door on fertility treatments.
We are very excited to be pursuing international adoption from China!

Thanks, ladies. I will keep the Celebrex in mind. I did see that Drs. Fosters & Smith has it - but my concern is that the Deramaxx will be out of commission for an EXTENDED period of time...and I will still need an alternative. The vet didnt call me back yet and my regular vet is coming in on Thursday so I will get this figured out. I better get a 30 day RX of Dermaxx in the meawhile...I'm going to call Drs Fosters & Smith to ensure it is in stock.
I should add I called Novartis today and it is not looking good.
You will forever be my best friend. I can almost feel our hugs. I will ensure everyone will know (now and in the future) what a genuine, kind, loving person you were...I already miss your laughter and our daily conversations. I love you, Samantha. May 20, 1983- February 20, 2012
I was at the pharmacy and the pharmacist told me that they have had numerous shortage/backorders on antibiotics, antidepressant, ADHD meds. DH take ritalin and the last few months has been horrible trying to find a pharmacy that even has it.
