According to statistics by National Pet Owners Survey, 62% families in the US own pets. The annual expenses for Pet meds in the US are reported as $10.94 billion. Also, the sale for pet related products and meds is usually not affected by recession in the United States and continues as normal.It has been observed that pharmaceutical companies continue to invest in pet meds despite recession. According to survey conducted by Health for Animals Club, pet pharmacies in America have regular sales for OTC pet meds such as Frontline for flea and tick control, health supplements for joints and ear cleanser for cats and dogs.

Anti-Parasitics such as Frontline products and pet health supplements remain at the core of the market. Frontline Plus for flea and tick control is over the counter product that does not require prescription. This product is approved by FDA and EPA. In the United States, 40% of flea and tick products are purchased over the counter. A leading vet in the United States, Mr. Jonah smith asserted that most pets at some point or the other suffer from parasite infestation, which leads to skin infections and allergies if not controlled in time. Frontline Plus pet med is a leading product in the US market that gives complete protection from fleas and ticks. In addition to flea and tick protection for pets, there is a huge market for pet grooming products such as Glossy Aloe Shampoo and EPI Otic Advanced ear cleanser. It has been observed that pets that are groomed well regularly are healthier and reportedly have fewer health issues.

According to statistics provided by American Pet Friends Group, about 60% dogs end up with stiff joints as they age. A representative from the group asserted that there is a need to provide pets with medications and some health supplements that will give relief from joint pain and reduce inflammation.He opined that the most commonly prescribed pet medicines for joints health are Advance Joint Care Formula Liquid and Joint Pain Relief Rub. These products reduce swelling and stiffness in joints and improve blood circulation. Advance Joint Care Formula Liquid prevents degeneration of joints and rebuilds cartilages, strengthening joint structure.

Around 2.4 million households in the United States own equines.According to recent studies, a high percentage of horses suffer from gastric ulcers due to intensive training and irregular eating habits. Leading veterinariansacross America state that, if ulcers are not treated in time, the equine may suffer from severe weight loss and will have very poor performance. Gastro Gard Omeperazole- Lomac Equine by Cipla is an excellent product to treat gastric ulcers in horses. This product works by inhibiting secretion of stomach acid and lets the ulcerated tissues heal.

According to top US Pharmaceutical companies, the highest pet meds sales are for flea and tick control among dogs and cats. Pet meds for joint relief among older animals come in second with almost the same percentage of sales.
