Devil's Claw and Equiox
|
JUDITH S. SCHNEIDER
HI,
We are waiting for Devil's Claw to arrive. We noticed through our research that it takes about 4 weeks to offer relief. Is this accurate? If so, is it safe to use Equiox at the same time to help with Rosa's pain level? Thanks! -- Judy S in NM 2023 |

It is absolutely not correct that it takes 4 weeks. I have seen results overnight. You may have to do some dosage experimentation but otherwise it works quickly.

Thank You, Dr. Kellon
We were very concerned that if it did take 4 weeks, Rosa would continue to experience a high level of pain and distress. So, since the research we found is incorrect and we want to make sure we are dosing her properly - what is recommended for a 700lb pony? -- Judy S in NM 2023 |

Hi Judy,
If you're giving ground Devil's Claw root (not an extract), the dose is 10g, 1-2x a day, for a 850-1000 lb horse. You can reduce the dose accordingly based on your pony's weight, but there is a large range of safe doses though, up to 40g/day in a normal size horse, so you have lots of wiggle room. -- Kirsten and Shaku (EMS + PPID) and Snickers (EMS) - 2019 Kitimat, BC, Canada ECIR Group Moderator Shaku's Photo Album Snickers' Case History Snickers' Photo Album |

Thanks for the information on DC root. We've ordered DC powder. Same dosage? Thanks. -- Judy S in NM 2023 |
