Alot of it is quality control. The restrictions and guidelines required of vet. medicine is much more relaxed than that for human consumption. Then there's just the market. Many people are just not as willing to spend the money for a pet that they would for a human. So while big pharma can charge 800% (just and example, not a fact) over cost of production for human medicine they can only get 200% (also just an example) for pet. They still make money both ways and they're not just not going to sell simply because they don't make as much.

Quick question, my dog has a burning sensation when he pees. What could that be?

Does your dog need to pee often even and then there's not much pee as well? Or just burning when pees?

Off hand I would say a UTI. Typically, small ones can and will resolve themselves but to speed them on I would recommend lots of liquids. In a human I would say drink alot of cranberry juice (the real stuff 100% juice) but in a dog? Lots of water.

Research done recently had shown it's the opposite way round in the UK
