Common Health Issues in Dogs and Their Solutions
Digestive Disorders
Dogs can experience digestive issues like diarrhea, vomiting, and constipation due to infections, stress, or diet changes. Our collection includes probiotics, antacids, and digestive supplements to restore balance and support gut health.
Flea, Tick, and Mite Control
Fleas and ticks can cause skin infections and transmit diseases like Lyme disease. Our preventive treatments include topical solutions, chewable tablets, and collars to keep your dog free from pests.
Respiratory Infections
Respiratory issues such as kennel cough or other infections can cause coughing, sneezing, and nasal discharge. Our respiratory medications help clear infections and improve breathing.
Skin and Coat Problems
Skin conditions like dermatitis, allergies, and fungal infections can cause discomfort. Our medicated shampoos, creams, and ointments soothe irritation and promote healthy skin and coat growth.
Joint and Mobility Issues
Joint pain, often caused by arthritis, is common in older dogs. Our joint supplements and anti-inflammatory medications reduce pain and improve mobility, helping your dog stay active.
Ear Infections and Mites
Ear infections caused by bacteria, yeast, or mites are common in dogs. Our ear drops and cleaners eliminate infections and soothe inflammation.
Eye Infections and Irritations
Eye infections like conjunctivitis can cause redness and discomfort. Our eye drops and ointments treat infections and promote quick healing.
Urinary Tract Infections and Bladder Health
Urinary tract infections (UTIs) and bladder stones can cause difficulty urinating. Our urinary health medications, including antibiotics and urinary acidifiers, treat infections and promote bladder health.
Worming and Parasite Control
Internal parasites like roundworms and tapeworms can harm your dog’s health. Deworming tablets and parasite control medications in our collection eliminate worms and prevent future infestations.
Heartworm Prevention and Treatment
Heartworm disease, transmitted by mosquitoes, is serious. Monthly preventive medications protect your dog, and treatments are available for diagnosed heartworm infections.
Allergy Relief
Allergies in dogs can cause itching and swelling. Our anti-allergy medications include antihistamines and corticosteroids to reduce allergic reactions.
Diabetes Management
Canine diabetes requires insulin therapy and diet management. Our collection includes insulin injections and glucose control supplements to maintain healthy blood sugar levels.
Heart Health and Blood Pressure
Heart conditions like congestive heart failure are common in older dogs. Our heart health medications, including ACE inhibitors and diuretics, help manage heart disease and high blood pressure.

Anxiety and stress in dogs can lead to behavioral problems. Our calming medications, supplements, and pheromone sprays reduce anxiety and promote calmness in stressful situations.

FAQs About Dog Medicines
How do I find a pet chemist near me in Mumbai?
Animeal is your online pet chemist in Mumbai—shop dog medicines, dewormers, flea & tick, skin/eye/ear care with fast citywide delivery. Check delivery ETA on each product page or browse all dog medicines.

Sometimes—if your vet prescribes a human-label medicine for pet use, a human pharmacy may fill it (policies vary). For pet-label products and specialist ranges, order from a veterinary pharmacy like Animeal.
Can I take a vet prescription to a pharmacy?
Yes. For prescription-only items, follow your veterinarian’s directions and local regulations. Many customers use Animeal for convenient fulfilment of vet-prescribed items (where permitted) and OTC care for dogs.
How do I get a prescription from a vet?
Book a consult. After diagnosis, your vet issues a written or digital prescription with drug name, strength, dosage, and duration. Upload/share it at checkout where required.
Can I buy antibiotics for my dog without a vet prescription?
No. Antibiotics are prescription-only and must be used under veterinary supervision. Misuse can be harmful and drive resistance.

Can humans take pet prescriptions?

Which company is best for veterinary medicine?
There isn’t one “best” for every condition. Vets choose by diagnosis and safety profile. On Animeal you’ll find vet-trusted brands across flea & tick, deworming, skin, eye/ear, and joint care—curated for Indian pet parents.
What is the “Big 4” in veterinary medicine?
People sometimes informally refer to a few global animal-health leaders. The exact list isn’t official and varies by source/segment. Rather than labels, rely on your vet’s guidance and product fit for your dog.
Who are the “Big 6” vets?
There’s no single official “Big 6.” It can mean large vet groups or pharma players depending on context. For pet parents, the priority is a qualified veterinarian and approved products.
