Peptizole Oral Paste for Horses – Effective Treatment for Stomach Ulcers
Peptizole Oral Paste contains omeprazole, a powerful proton pump inhibitor that works by reducing gastric acid secretion. By lowering the acidity levels in the stomach, Peptizole helps prevent and treat gastric ulcers in horses, promoting overall gut health and comfort.
Why Choose Peptizole?
Peptizole is an essential part of managing gastric ulcers, but it’s also important to incorporate proper horse care practices alongside treatment. Some husbandry measures that can help reduce the risk of ulcers include:
– Reducing stress
– Increasing roughage intake (such as hay)
– Providing more access to grazing
– Minimizing periods without food access
These steps combined with Peptizole can significantly lower the chance of ulcers developing.
Peptizole Dosage Guidelines
– Initial Treatment (28 days): Administer Peptizole at a higher dose, with one syringe providing a daily dose for a 700kg horse.
– Maintenance Treatment (28 days): To prevent ulcer recurrence, reduce the dosage. One syringe will then last for 4 days for a 700kg horse.
Prescription Required
Please note that Peptizole is a prescription-only medicine, and we will require a valid prescription from your vet before dispatch.
