Novartis injects street theatre into London Vet Show 2012
Man in a box and animal performers entertain veterinarians at the London Vet Show 2012
Novartis injected some theatre into this year’s London Vet Show surprising visitors with its man in a box and animal ‘street’ performers. The characters were raising awareness of the company’s non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug, Onsior®. Veterinary surgeons were directed to the Novartis stand where they had the chance to win an iPad3.
A recent published clinical study demonstrated Onsior® Injection had superior efficacy to meloxicam injection in reducing post-operative pain in cats.1 More information can be found at www.onsior-relief.co.uk.
Note to editor
Onsior® is an effective, tissue-selective, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug that offers effective pain relief in cats and dogs. Onsior® solution for injection is recommended for the treatment of pain and inflammation associated with soft tissue surgery in cats and dogs, plus orthopaedic surgery in dogs. In tablet form, Onsior® is prescribed to treat pain and inflammation associated with musculo-skeletal disorders in cats and chronic osteoarthritis in dogs.
Full product information is available at www.onsior-relief.co.uk
The winner of the iPad3 will be chosen on Monday 19th November. To win the iPad3, delegates had to have their picture taken in the stand’s photobooth, upload their picture onto Facebook and tag the London Vet Show. The picture with the most ‘likes’ will be the winner.
