Anyone use this site - leaflet from my vet along with C's umpteenth prescription? Hosted by Boeringer who produce Prascend but apart from the commercial point of view it seems to have a fair bit of useful information and a forum. For all those out in internetland who have elderly or laminitic equines

My sister has used it. Our vet recommended it, as you get a free voucher every year for your cushings test!

Unfortunately, unless things have changed , once the pony is being treated for cushings the test is no longer free.

Yes, only the first one is free. Boeringer creating a customer base lol

Our vet told us to register as that way you get a free test every year. Rog was diagnosed years ago but she got a voucher the other day when she did it. I know it used to be that way, but I know she has one to use next time.

Interesting - mine is due for a test once the seasonal rise is over (?end of October?) so I might try but it does say "previously untested".

She said the same but she had filled in that he had been tested, and his levels when it was done and the voucher arrived the next day. And if having information in one place can improve treatment in the future that's all good!
