Can I give Pure Joint Support alongside medication or other supplements?Updated 7 days ago

Yes — in most cases you can give Pure Joint Support alongside other medications or supplements. Because it’s made entirely from wholefood ingredients (not synthetic extracts), it is generally safe to combine with other natural or veterinary treatments.


Alongside medication:

  • NSAIDs & pain relief (e.g. Metacam, Carprofen): Pure Joint Support can safely be used alongside these. It may even allow for lower reliance on painkillers over time by naturally easing stiffness and inflammation.
  • Steroids or long-term meds: No known negative interactions, but always check with your vet if your dog is on ongoing prescription treatments.
  • Antibiotics & other common drugs: Wholefood powders don’t interfere with absorption or action.

Alongside other supplements:

  • Omega-3 oils/fish oils: Safe to use together — Pure Joint Support already contains omega-3s from green-lipped mussel, so you may not need as much additional oil.
  • General multivitamins or food toppers: No conflict, though always avoid doubling up unnecessarily on the same active ingredient.
  • Other herbal supplements: Normally safe, but check overlap — e.g. if another product also contains turmeric or devil’s claw, make sure doses aren’t excessive.

A few cautions:

  • Always introduce gradually when combining with new products.
  • Devil’s claw (one of our ingredients) is a natural anti-inflammatory. If your dog is on blood-thinning medication or has ulcers, consult your vet first.
  • If your dog has a specific health condition, it’s best to confirm with your vet before mixing supplements and medications.
