How is this different than cerenia or just generic maropitant citrate?

The Comfor-trate tablets contain maropitant citrate, which is the same active ingredient found in Cerenia. It’s always best to consult your veterinarian for specific recommendations and to see which product might be most suitable for your dog’s needs.
