Abstract
Outside the realm of nonsteroidal antiinflammatory drug(NSAID) and opioid exist a broad range of medications that exert an analgesic effect, or otherwise modify and protect against pain, by manipulating various targets along the nociceptive pathway. Strength of evidence for dogs and cats can vary widely, and this article will review the available literature that may guide clinical usage in these species.
