Das einzigartige NSAR Vedaprofen für Pferde

Vedaprofen hat entzündungshemmende, schmerzstillende und stark fiebersenkende Eigenschaften.

Die Wirksamkeit wurde in mehreren multizentrischen Studien bestätigt, die eine signifikante Verbesserung bei Lahmheit und Weichteilverletzungen zeigten. Vedaprofen schnitt ähnlich gut ab wie Flunixin und Meloxicam, was den Einsatz in der Behandlung von Schmerzen und Entzündungen bei Erkrankungen des Bewegungsapparats und Traumata unterstützt.

Quadrisol ist nicht nur zur Linderung von Entzündungen und Schmerzen bei Erkrankungen des Bewegungsapparats, sondern auch bei Weichteilverletzungen und zur Prophylaxe bei vorhersehbaren chirurgischen Traumata zugelassen. Dies macht Quadrisol besonders wertvoll in Situationen,

Health & Performance introduces a new product: HP Flexi4, a complementary feed for horses that promotes the mobility and flexibility of the horse's joints. It contains a unique formula of four powerful plant extracts: Curcuma Longa (Turmeric), Yucca Schidifera, Salix Alba, and Urtica Dioica (common nettle), working synergistically, supporting the body's natural anti-inflammatory capacity and providing antioxidants.

And due to its convenient gel form with an tasty apple flavour, Flexi4 is easy to administer: either directly into the mouth or mixed with feed.

“In my experience, Flexi4 is more complete than other comparable products on the market. Professional sport stables specifically ask for it, as they clearly notice a difference when it is not being given.” – Dr. Mathias Delafortrie, Orthopaedic Specialist, Vitalis Orthocare

Which horses benefit from HP Flexi4?

Due to its broad action, HP Flexi4 can be effectively used across different types of horses and disciplines:

• Sport horses

The competition season is in full swing. Horse owners are doing everything they can to keep their horses fit and healthy alongside regular veterinary check-ups and treatments. High-quality supplementation can play a valuable role in this.

A successful start for a foal is highly dependent on sufficient intake of high-quality colostrum. In this blog, we discuss the production and quality of colostrum, as well as the assessment of immunoglobulin levels in the foal’s blood using the VMRD reader. Additionally, we cover relevant products that can be used in cases where the foal has not absorbed enough colostrum.

Colostrum is rich in immunoglobulins and essential nutrients. The diet of a pregnant mare significantly

The start of the new year marks a special time: the beginning of the foaling season. For many mares, this is a period of pregnancy and parturition, requiring intensive care and guidance from you as an equine veterinarian. To support you during this critical phase, we are pleased to provide information over the coming months to help ensure the reproductive cycle proceeds as smoothly as possible.

This blogpost offers an introductory overview of potential medical challenges in pregnant mares and newborn foals. We briefly discuss possible solutions and tools we can provide, starting with the early phase when fertility issues may arise. We then address the pregnancy period, the birth process, and the first days of the foal’s life.

In the coming weeks, a series of blogs will delve deeper into medical challenges and corresponding treatment options.

Fertility problems occur in approximately 15% of mares. In 70-80% of these cases, a subclinical uterine infection is the cause,

It is recommended that invoicing processes be updated accordingly to ensure compliance.
