Nutramax
Cosequin for Cats Sprinkle Capsules
A transparent, well-priced feline joint capsule from a batch-testing owner-operator, held to Good by the contested glucosamine and chondroitin evidence base.

Nutramax
Dasuquin for Cats Sprinkle Capsules
A fully-disclosed glucosamine, chondroitin, and ASU joint capsule for cats at the studied forms and a weight-scaled dose; the active's osteoarthritis evidence is contested and Nutramax is not an NASC member, so it lands Good rather than Strong.
