Despite the size and agility of horses, their legs are relatively fragile. Their weight, in combination with the type of work they do, can often lead to joint complications. Boehringer Ingelheim works closely with horse owners and veterinarians to promote joint health and long, healthy lives for horses.
To help educate horse owners about joint health, we have collaborated with David Frisbie, DVM, PhD, Diplomate ACVS, a leading equine joint health researcher at the Equine Orthopaedic Research Center at Colorado State University.
SURPASS® (1% diclofenac sodium) is an easy-to-apply cream and the only FDA-approved veterinary product containing diclofenac, a potent pain reducer and anti-inflammatory agent.
HYVISC® (hyaluronate sodium) is an injectable fluid that mimics the properties of synovial fluid naturally found in joints to provide lubrication and reduce inflammation.
