Arthritis supplement recommendations

[lil_jodz]

Can anyone recommend a supplement for a horse with Arthritis in his hock. My vet has recommended a bute before going to any local shows. ideally i would like to get him a supplement of some form for daily feeding. I have tried cortaflex but hasnt done much for him.

Have a look on the Riaflex website. There's loads of info on there that will hopefully help you.

Maxavita Maxaflex is the one I've found most improvements with. Otherwise a basic blend of glucosamine/msm/rosehips. Cortaflex did nothing. Agree with the above about micronised linseed.

I would look into Boswelia Serratta as well, can be a "wonder herb" for some horses with joint problems.
