My horse will soon start .medicine if things check out. I see the price for prascend is $60 a month and the price for periglide is $30 a month. I'm curious to know who is spending 60 and who is

Lavinia, I dramatically reduced her Bute today. She seemed to not feel as well yesterday, and I'm not sure if it was the Bute or just the pain, but she's only had 1 gram thus far today. I'll go back

Maggie, I have updated Maggie's case history with test results. Cornell University was the lab. Her blood was drawn in the morning, and I do not believe she had been feed since the previous evening.

I just had my mare in the Soft Ride boots for 3 weeks. They were a lifesaver!! They are expensive, but getting my mare through the period when she could not have shoes put on was worth every penny.

Question about safety: are we supposed to wear gloves when opening the capsules. I've done that when upping a dose to get the .25mg without ordering 30 of them. But I never wear gloves. My wonderful

Hi Tiffany, Thanks for getting the pics into a photo album on ECHistory8. Here's the link to them: https://groups.yahoo.com/neo/groups/echistory8/photos/albums/540173897 It sounds like Maggie did too

Hi Lj, The patented Prascend is available for about $52-$60 per month at 1mg per day. Need to purchase several months at a time for that price, however. Can check this

Hi ladies, I'm a bit late in getting Monty titrated up to his 2mg dose of Pergolide after spending last month away dealing with a family issue. But I'm back and have moved Monty to his new winter

Of course, 1 mg not 1 g. Guess that's what happens when I'm not fully awake when I post. She's been doing well on a rounded 1 mg scoop, which I'm assuming contains more than 1 mg of pergolide. The

Cheri - PS...some members have actually cut the frog support off the pad b/c it was hitting the horse in the wrong place and making them uncomfortable. Each horse is different and it takes some

Hi Cheri Soft Ride has been used by many many members over the years. The owner of the company is a big supporter of ECIR. There used to be a pad that raised the back half of the foot. I'm not

Maybe that insert is new, I'm not sure because I am just having them for the first time. One thing I found out, don't use the website sizing chart as it is not correct any longer but is still on

Hi Cheri - I had these boots for my horse after she foundered - but I found a level pad was best because that kept the coffin bone more ground parallel. They worked very well. I am not familiar

My new veterinarian has recommended I get my laminitic horse some Soft Ride boots with the laminitic insert. Anyone have any experiences with these boots? They are $195.00 for the boots that come

Now I'm answering myself. >If you feed 2 x 1mg ( not gram) capsules,you would open both of those and syringe them in. When I had to open capsules,I used to fold a stiff memo card in half and dump

Hi Erin, I am assuming the capsules are 1mg, not 1g - correct? They are quite small. Just open one and pour it into the syringe. You only need a small bit of water as the powder dissolves almost

Thanks Nancy & Lorna, Should I round up dosage if I mix it in water to syringe feed? The first pergolide I got was powder with a 1 gram scoop. I'm supposed to give her 1 gram once a day. I was mixing

Hi Tiffany, Great!! I'm glad that helped. I found your CH. Great job on the timeline!! That's fine to add the exact numbers and the lab's normal ranges from Maggie's test results later. Just

Hi Miz Crayon Welcome. We do things a little differently here. It's not your usual internet chat room. We do not follow paths of ideology but of science and what has worked for 1000s of horses over
