How suitable would this supplement be for a laminitic?

I have a pony who currently has laminitis who I'm looking for a broad spectrum vitamin and mineral supplement for. He was on Codlivine for a while but seems to have decided he no longer likes this, so at the moment he's still just on chaff (Hi Fi light at the moment, just finishing off a bag then looking into another which was reccomended) and soaked hay, around 5kg a day or a bit more sometimes to stop him kicking the door. I've had a look around online and came across this http://www.dodsonandhorrell.com/pro...ements/vitamins-minerals/daily-vits-mins.html which I thought sounded suitable, does anyone have any idea whether this might be okay for a laminitic? I'll ask the vet too but just thought I'd try to get a few opinions :) Thank you in advance for any help :)
 
Looking at the website, this seems to be fine - but you can always ring and check with the D&H nutritionist.

My pony is fed the Baileys Lo-cal feed supplement which has been recommended for lami sufferers and "fatties" but the best supplement by far is Farriers Formula. A friend's pony who suffers badly with lami was put on this last year and it has improved his hoof condition 100%.
