Lady presented with signs of illness and significantly retarded growth. At 10 months, Lady was still the size of a 5 month old filly.

EQUINE STRANGLES STUDY 2004

Study conducted on a closed herd of 29 horses with acute and chronic hot strep equi with abscessation and weight loss. Horses were randomly assigned to a control group(14) and a treatment group(15). Normal signalment, weight and body/flesh ratings were recorded at day 0 and day 40. Absecessation (Strangles and prestrangles) was evaluated via ultra sound at start and after 40 days. All horses received autogenous bacterin and antibiotic treatment (Baytril). Treatment group were administered Ramaekers Equine Formula 2oz BID. Results showed that the treatment group experienced significantly better weight gain: an average weight gain of 39 pounds compared with 20 pounds for the controls. The attending veterinarian also noted marked improvements in body flesh and condition within the treatment group.
