A local vet gave my horse a second IV of Tildren this week. The first dose was given by a visiting vet in May and my horse went so well after, that it was amazing. A few hours after the first dose, every bit of swelling in my horse's legs disappeared, they looked like a yearling's. No wind puffs or anything. His manure also smelled very strange, like paint thinner.
After this latest dose, nothing. No profound physical change, no funny smell. Nothing. After a few days rest, his lameness feels exactly the same as well.
I did not see the vial or box of Tildren at all, just a bag of saline. I suspect nothing was added.
Can anyone shed some light on why there would be none of the same, fairly immediate changes with the same amount of drug given? Has anyone had this happen? Maybe horses can develop a tolerance?
By the way, this is not in the UK. We are in a country with very limited veterinary resources.
