Thanks for this info! Here's a little more: >>>i was reading in EQUUS... i think it was.... a while back and they stated that over 70% of show horses trailering alot have ulcers of one kind or another..... don't know how long you've had the horse... but with SSH, RACKING HORSES, TWH..... the methods used to "win" are not easliy put aside and the temperments created take much time and TLC.... to get them to relax and trust and not worry about when the next "training or riding session" is coming...... buddies, relaxed work, grooming, bonding on a consistent basis all help, as well as acupuncture, the tellington-jones T TOUCH, etc...... it's not always the food..... pain may exist somewhere... <<<< >>There is a drug that is used for humans that actually patch and heal up the ulcers and will be a lot cheaper. You will need to have your vet call it into a pharmacy. ( for human drugs) I have used this on my gelding and it works absolutely!!!! SUCRALFATE It will heal it up just fine and put a coating in the stomach lining. This a drug that is used by many Doctors. and it is cheaper then the horse ulcer meds. 1 1/2 tabs daily 1500 MG <<< Judy http://icehorses.net http://clickryder.com
