The
drawback to the Cetyl M is the loading dose to start, which is a
double dose twice a day, 10-30 days . Maintenance is 1 scoop once a
day the ( 5 pound )tub is a 60 day maintenance supply . If you buy
just a months worth you would only have a week supply for loading . It
was at about 30 days I saw a difference in my horse . It is expensive to
keep your horse on it , it was a last resort for me since nothing else
had worked .
I have been giving my daughters 4-H pony oral HA. Did the IV HA, not Legend
($81.50 per shot) but an off brand given by my vet for $47.50. Best money I have
EVER spent on him for his comfort. It has been almost 3 months since he got the
shot and he is still sound. He has not taken a lame step. He is now barefoot,
went too long before he had shoes pulled and was still sound. This is a pony
that was being shod every 5 weeks through the show season. I think all horses
should be on HA IV if they have arthritis issues. I am going to give the oral
that I have left a try for me. Beccy in Ut.
