"I need something new for scratches. I have tried recipes that
have been shared before and they work for a short while and then it
seems to no longer be effective."

Hi Bob ,
I had the same problem and have tried every scratches medication on the
market  with no luck until a friend sent me this recipe .

4 oz. Desitin
3oz. Furacin ointment
1oz. Desinex athlete's foot ointment or powder
1oz. 1/2% or 1% hydrocortisone cream

Mix together and put in a jar that seals well and it will last for months in
a cool place . My mare is prone to scratches and would get them so bad that
I would have to treat her twice a day for sometimes up to a month with
commercial ointments . With this recipe they have never lasted more than 10
days and that is treating her once a day . Good Luck and I hope it works as
well for you as it did for me .
