Alternatives to hestevard advanced pectigus

[This_riveriswild]

my horse is currently on this supplement following treatment for ulcers and on vet recommendation. It’s only available from the vet and is expensive, I would like to find a slightly cheaper alternative for longer term use, does anyone have any recommendations?

Are you on Facebook? This group is fab for ulcer questions: https://www.facebook.com/groups/horseulcertreatment/

I'm part way through treatment for my boy and a lot of people seem to rave about Pectigus but lots on there also use Acid Ease, if you search up supplements on that group you'll see all the chats. There are good suggestions on there.

I'm not sure what I will go onto next...different things seem to work for different people it also depends where the ulcers are, hindgut or foregut. Lots rave about Ron fields but I do know people who have used that and it did nothing for their horses.

I haven’t used it, but looking at the ingredients it seems like you could buy them all separately and probably cheaper, just seems to be mostly calcium carbonate, magnesium, pectin and lecithin, with a few extras.

Our vets are now recommending Ron Fields after seeing really good results: https://ronfieldsnutrition.co.uk/product/ulc30explus/

I have bought pectin and lecithin separately - pectin is expensive but still cheaper than a ready made formula.

They do herbs as well if you want to make up your own versions of any brands. Pectin is pricey but still cheaper this way.
