Grapiprant (CAT: I003508) is a pharmaceutical compound belonging to the class of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). It acts as a selective antagonist of the prostaglandin EP4 receptor, which plays a role in mediating pain and inflammation. Grapiprant is primarily used in veterinary medicine for the treatment of pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis in dogs. By selectively blocking the EP4 receptor, Grapiprant helps to reduce pain and inflammation without affecting other prostaglandin pathways. It provides a targeted approach to managing osteoarthritis symptoms in dogs, improving their mobility and overall quality of life.
