human diabetes medication (SGLT2i)


Tori & Floss
 

There are vets in Australia currently recommending treating laminitic horses with success with this medication to get Insulin down?
Has anybody heard of it before?

Hi Tori

There are several members working with their vets and Dr Kellon on using these meds to lower insulin in their EMS horses, particularly Invokana and Steglatro.

and

Use has specific protocols and has to be carefully monitored. Dr Kellon will send protocol information to your vet if you send her that email information via PM. drkellon "at" gmail "dot" com.
