Alpharma Extend-A-Cool leg wraps and E-Care Nutritionals
In these challenging economic times, horsemen have joined the rest of society
in finding efficiencies in how we spend our time and our money. Less time in the
barn means more quality time on the trail. Likewise, getting more benefit from
horse feed means your equine partner can derive more benefit from every pound
consumed.
Alpharma has found a way to help the horseman with two new products:
Extend-A-Cool leg wraps, which take the place of messy, time-consumer poultices;
and E-Care Nutritionals, a way to restore favorable bacteria to the horse's gut
in order to improve digestion.

Booth Farwell of Nutramax Laboratories
For owners of senior horses, joint pain and lameness can take
our equine partners out of meaningful work—a circumstance to be avoided if we’re
to maintain peak horse health over time. For years, equine nutriceutical
companies have responded by offering various combinations of glucosamine and
chrondroitin sulfate. Cosequin from Nutramax Laboratories is a leading name in joint health. The Cosequin advantage? Lower molecular
weight chondroitin, which helps deliver relief faster. MyHorse.com caught up with Nutramax’s equine specialist,
Booth Farwell, to discuss the latest development in the Cosequin brand—Cosequin
ASU, a variation on
the original Cosequin formulation that now adds Avocado and Soybean to this best-selling joint pain solution.

Jacinthe Moreau of Intervet
Equine de-worming over the past 20 years has been revolutionized by the development of various brands of ivermectin and moxidectin de-worming pastes that target all manner of large and small strongyls, tapeworms, bots and other parasites.
The flipside of this success is the emerging threat of parasite resistance—which has the potential to diminish the effectiveness of this important tool for the horse owner. MyHorse.com recently interviewed Jacinthe Moreau, equine marketing manager for Intervet, about this growing problem. Intervet’s response is a six-step rotation plan that inserts Intervet’s Safe-Guard Power-Dose, Safe-Guard Paste (Fenbandazol) and Safe-Guard Equibits at key intervals in the de-worming process.
