This comprehensive textbook addresses the critical need for effective pain recognition, assessment, and treatment in modern veterinary medicine, where animal welfare standards demand sophisticated approaches to managing acute, chronic, and perioperative pain. The text bridges the gap between theoretical pharmacology and practical clinical application, providing readers with actionable strategies for improving patient comfort and outcomes. Drawing from current research and clinical expertise, this resource explores the neurophysiology of pain, multimodal analgesia techniques, and species-specific considerations that influence treatment decisions. The book systematically covers pharmacological interventions including NSAIDs, opioids, local anesthetics, and adjunctive medications, while also addressing non-pharmacological approaches such as physical rehabilitation, acupuncture, and environmental modifications. Special emphasis is placed on pain assessment tools, client communication strategies, and the ethical obligations veterinarians face in preventing and alleviating animal suffering. With detailed protocols for managing pain in surgical, medical, and palliative care settings, this textbook equips practitioners with the knowledge to develop individualized pain management plans. The content encompasses small animal, equine, and large animal applications, making it a versatile reference for mixed and specialized practices alike. Case examples, dosing charts, and decision-making algorithms enhance the practical utility of this indispensable clinical guide.
