If so - did it work and how long did it take before you saw an improvement? My TB mare has been on 3 sachets a day for 12 days now, having been diagnosed with low grade gastric ulcers from scoping exam at the end of Jan. She isn't insured so Gastroguard is out due to cost, and having heard about Abprazole via this forum it seemed like the perfect option. However - after 12 days I haven't seen any improvement in her symptoms (poor condition, dull coat, loose droppings...) except possibly a small reduction in teeth grinding when ridden and a small (so minute in fact that I may have imagined it) improvement in her appetite for hay. I'm bitterly disappointed as was expecting great things, having noticed a dramatic improvement in the consistency of her droppings after just 2 tubes of Gastroguard (prescribed by the vet as a short term thing during an episode of diarrhoea just prior to her diagnosis with ulcers).
Am now worried that this stuff is just not as good as Gastroguard and I've wasted my money on a cheap and ineffective alternative Very confused and unsure what to do from here. I have a tub of Feedmark Ulcer Calm and some Meadowsweet and Slippery Elm in my feed room ready to start at the end of the Abprazole treatment, but not sure whether I should start that now seeing as I've not had much results from the Abprazole? Or should I stick it out a bit longer??
Any advice much appreciated! thanks
