Hi there,
not had any experience of this brand, but did have a look at the link you posted. To be honest I am wary of anything that doesn't tell you exactly what you get in a daily dose and how long it lasts when fed at that dose etc. This product does not tell you what daily dose you get which is pretty useless. It also contains a lot of useless ingriedients that you don't need to pay for. I am not saying that they are useless altogether but in terms of a joint supplement the only 3 components you need and should be paying for are:
glucosamine
chondroitin
MSM

For a joint supplement to work well it needs to be fed at the appropriate levels (very high strength) which may be why you are not having much luck.

Check out the website:
www.riaflex-equine.co.uk
Gives loads of useful advice and therapy grade joint products.

The easiest way to compare joint supplememnts is to read the labels. The higher the daily dose the better the product. If no dose is disclosed this is usually because levels are shockingly low. In this industry paying for what you get does not always follow as many leading brands underdose massively.
Hope this is of some help!

How long have you been using Pernamax? My pony responded immediately but my hunter took longer. So i tried upping his dose and then weaning him down which worked.

Just out of interest, why are you using it? - injury, arthritis??

Good luck anyway, I had some exceptional results so I really hope it works for you
