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.

VetriScience

GlycoFlex Plus for Cats

A fully disclosed, per-ingredient cat joint chew from a NASC, own-facility maker, with green-lipped mussel alongside glucosamine and chondroitin and a hedged support claim; the catch is the same as every glucosamine product, the evidence for the active is weak and contested, so it lands Good on execution rather than Strong on proof.
