Dr James Hunt returns to chat about non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for the last episode in the “Pain Medications” series. NSAIDs often get bad press so we asked James to come and clarify some of the facts from the misinformation. He and Hannah explain what NSAIDs are and how they work, adverse events and how to report them and ways to use these drugs as safely as possible.

Dr James Hunt qualified in 1998 from RVC with a strong interest in pain management and worked in mixed practice for six years while completing the RCVS Certificate in Veterinary Anaesthesia. Following this he moved into small animal practice for a further six years, at which time the opportunity arose to undertake an MSc by research at the University of Bristol, investigating perioperative sedation and analgesia in dogs and cats. Enjoying the world of research, he continued at the University of Bristol for a further six years, including working on a 3-year research project investigating pain mechanisms in pet dogs with osteoarthritis. In 2017 he joined the anaesthesia department at a referral hospital in Somerset seeing cases for chronic pain management consultations. He is a Diplomate of the European College of Animal Welfare and Behaviour Medicine, and contributed to the chapter on chronic and osteoarthritic pain in the BSAVA Guide to Pain Management in Small Animal Practice.
