Avoid Librella jab ( too many animals suffering because of it )
Librella jab caused a variety of adverse reactions in my poor dog including a stroke laterally . Firstly it was Vomiting , confusion , paralysis of both back legs , respiratory distress , nystagmus , the list goes on . I would never have given her the jab had my vet not pushed me into it without me doing my normal research, as I was told it had no adverse side effects .
No bloods or checks were done to confirm Osteoarthritis and I think she just had stiffness in one back leg !!!
She is now on vitallyn for the rest of her days 😭

I have to thanks to Zoetis that my dog is underground now! He had 3 shoots , prescribed by my veterinarian that I was stupid and fully trusted! At first he had ataxia after the 3rd shoot , recovered 90% after I spent $$$ on his rehab but he is gone exactly at 3 months after Librela side effects hit him! I do have videos and picture how he was before and with ataxia ! I hope this drog is out of market before kills ours pets! They lies everyone with theirs insert and sides effects! If I am not totally sure Librela caused his internal bleeding I am totally sure that ataxia was because the Librela

Recall Librela
I’m writing this review as a heartbroken dog owner to warn others about the dangers of Zoetis Pharmaceuticals' product, Librela. My golden retriever, once a vibrant and healthy member of my family, has suffered immensely after receiving this injection. What was supposed to alleviate joint pain has instead led to devastating consequences that no pet owner should have to endure.
Within weeks of receiving the Librela shot, my dog began experiencing symptoms that I could have never imagined. She went completely **deaf**, developed **loss of bowel control**, and eventually became **paralyzed**. I trusted this product to help ease her discomfort, but instead, it has caused her untold suffering. The quality of her life has been irreparably damaged, and it’s been incredibly painful to watch her deteriorate.
Librela is marketed as a solution for pain management in dogs, but what Zoetis fails to disclose is the serious and potentially **deadly side effects**. How many more pets have to suffer illness or even **death** before this company takes responsibility?
If you value the health and well-being of your beloved pet, I urge you to think twice before trusting Zoetis or their products. This experience has been nothing short of a nightmare, and I can only hope others are spared from the same heartache. **Zoetis, you need to do better.** Our pets deserve more than a company willing to gamble with their lives.

Solensia and Librela are disabling and killing cats and dogs!
My beloved cat now has neurological issues after six injections of their “wonder drug” Solensia. She is a shell of herself who lost her personality and spirit. She now stares into space or sits facing walls. She doesn’t do anything she used to; cleaning herself, using her scratching post, playing, meowing, enjoying treats, wanting human interaction, exploring her surroundings, etc.
Luckily, my cat is still alive but many cat and dog parents have not been so lucky.
I’m very angry. Angry at Zoetis for not properly testing and not disclosing all adverse side effects in all countries where the drug is sold, angry at my vet for not warning me of any adverse side effects, and angry at myself for blindly trusting my vet.
I would think twice before entrusting your pet’s health to any drugs this company manufactures; especially Solensia and Librela.

Solensia and Librella should be banned
My cat barely survived his seventh shot of Solensia, which was supposed to be safe. Don’t use this junk, nor the dog version called Librella. Seriously, this stuff can kill your pet.

How I lost my furry friend, thanks to solensia.
My Rufus was a very healthy senior with osteoarthritis when the doctor prescribed solensia. After the 2nd injection we saw that he started walking better. After the 3rd injection he was lying on the couch, suddenly jumped up, fell down and could no longer get up or walk. He was panting heavily. The doctor who was immediately consulted could find nothing...After 2 or 3 hours he looked better again.
This happened again 2 days later.
The doctor said this couldn't have anything to do with solensia. In the following months we saw that he had less and less control over his hind legs, they simply slipped out from under him. According to the doctor, this was because he was getting older and his muscle strength was decreasing.
In the subsequent period, Rufus withdrew more and more, often sitting with his nose almost against the wall, staring for hours. He also started shouting more and more. We decided to stop taking Solensia because we no longer saw any improvement and switched to Onsior, green-lipped mussel capsules and Traumeel. After about 3 weeks, Rufus started walking better and better! He was no longer in the attic. Until we suddenly noticed that his pupils no longer responded to light. Visited a doctor immediately. Rufus still saw dark and light but nothing else. All other checks were good!. After about 5 days, his pupils suddenly started to respond again and we saw our old man again, happy, playful, cuddly. Unfortunately this lasted 5 weeks when he again had large pupils. This time he bumped into everything, the doctor said he couldn't see anything anymore and this wouldn't turn out well. The following days he withdrew further and further, he seemed to give up. He was only calm and not anxious when I lay next to him. Then he also wanted something to eat. He no longer did that on his own. We felt this was no longer a quality of life for him. He will be put to sleep today. My sweet, handsome, VERY HEALTH senior. Thanks to Zoetis and his solensia! This terwille drug must be pulled back from the Market. Zoetis, take your responsebility!!! Stop killing our beloven, furry friends

I lost my cat and solensia was…
I lost my cat and solensia was shockingly changing her
I compared the information that was on the Dutch market to Canada and I was Devistated that all the information with bad side effects was inside the information sheet from Canada, not in the Netherlands
Dutch Market is misinformed
I never get my cat back and our family is heart broken
She got anorexic , totally wobbly and out of balance , which scared my baby a lot
She was just sitting and staring and I feel so bad that we don’t have enough awareness on the side effects

Appalling side effects
My cat was on Solensia for a year. I kept her on it because sometimes it seemed to make a little difference to her arthritis and I thought any pain relief was worth keeping her on, but the improvement wasn't very noticeable and wasn't consistent. The side-effects built up gradually and once I realised why they were happening I took her off the monthly injections. Before Solensia she was a fit and healthy, albeit elderly, 'supercat' with spotless blood tests, good weight and general health. She now has kidney disease, weakness and instability, weight loss, blindness and has just been diagnosed with terminal intestinal cancer. It also made her IBD worse and she no longer uses the litter tray. She seems to have aged ten years in one year. I personally don't think Zoetis have tested this product thoroughly before selling it to vets. If I, and many others, are right this is big pharma acting incredibly irresponsibly. Imagine if it was being sold for humans... I hope the product is pulled before more animals and owners suffer what we are going through.
