What is the recommended dosage of EQ-Ulcer?
Treatment dosage: The treatment dosage is 8 grams daily, administered with the scoop provided in the tub and may go straight into the feed, mixed in with water so that it binds to the feed.
Our clinical trials with EQ-Ulcer lasted 3 months. After this time period every horse was successfully healed of gastric ulcers. Therefore, we recommend a period of 3 months daily treatment.
Management and preventative dosage: Management and preventative dosage consists of half of the treatment dosage - 4 grams a day, added straight into the feed.
This is also recommended for horses struggling with general digestive and gut conditions.
