Horses that live inside or are exposed to dust, pollen, and molds may be prone to irritated airways. Support your horse’s respiratory system with supplements formulated to promote airway health and lung function for better breathing.
Your horse’s airway health is extremely important in preventing respiratory illness and helping them perform their best. Decreasing dust, improving ventilation, soaking hay, ensuring access to fresh, clean water and other management strategies can promote healthy breathing. In addition, a respiratory supplement with ingredients to target tissues of your horse’s airways may be beneficial.
Equine respiratory supplements are formulated to soothe respiratory tissues and maintain airway health, and they may be especially helpful for horses suffering from respiratory tract issues. This could include horses with seasonal allergies, Recurrent Airway Obstruction (RAO or heaves), Inflammatory Airway Disease (IAD), or a recurrent cough. These conditions can make it harder for horses to breathe normally, contribute to inflammation, and potentially impact a horse’s performance career.
As with any health issue, it is important to work with your equine veterinarian to diagnose and treat the disorder with medications and nebulizer protocols as available. We encourage you to talk with your veterinarian about how certain ingredients in supplements may complement your horse’s treatment plan by supporting respiratory health.
