Our dog has a severe abscess and will not eat or drink because of pain. The vet did surgery and used hydromorphone during the surgery (dilodid) and then put a fentanyl patch on her for extended pain relief. SOME anti-inflamm stories are safe for dogs, but you must check. Narcotics are used by vets and anyone who says "no human medicine's can be used", is simply wrong. Oxycodone can be used but Not if its mixed with Tylenol (ie., Percocet) and only carefully with Percodan (which combines oxycodone with aspirin).
For chronic pain our older dogs get Tramadol or aspirin, but aspirin requires food with it.
Note that human dosages do not always translate by weight, as dogs metabolize differently.
Consult your vet, but if your pet is in severe pain, speak up for them. There are options.
