Pain Relief for Horses

Your equine partner is an athlete - and with that comes soreness and pain from training and injuries. We want to provide our horse pain relief, just as we would for ourselves.

Please contact your vet for a diagnosis and treatment plan and to help choose the horse painkillers or perhaps a horse balm for pain. If you compete with your horse, check the list of prohibited substances. Some organisations may allow bute-free options as pain relief for horses.

While a pain relief gel for horses or a horse cream for pain is topical and is applied to a specific area, the best overall pain relief for horses may be in the form of a liquid to treat nerve pain, or alternatively in the form of a powder, or via a syringe. Consider your equine partner's circumstances when choosing painkillers for horses. You might find that an herbal product providing natural pain relief for horses suits them nicely. 

You can also help your horse's comfort by supplementing their diet with joint and mobility or vitality supplements.
