🐾✨ NOW IN STOCK: NUMELVI ✨🐾

Say goodbye to the itch! We’re excited to now offer Numelvi at Destrehan Animal Hospital!

💊 What is Numelvi?Numelvi is an oral medication (pill) used to help control itching and inflammation caused by allergies in dogs. Whether it’s seasonal allergies, environmental triggers, or skin sensitivities—this helps bring relief fast!

What makes Numelvi different?

-Can be used in pets 6mos or older
-No initial dosing needed
-Fast acting in 2-4 hours of first dose
-More targeted — focuses mainly on the JAK1 pathway (the main driver of itch)

If your pup is constantly itching, chewing their paws, or dealing with red/irritated skin, Numelvi could be a game changer!
