Horses that are prone to gastric ulcers, or those currently being managed with ulcer medication, often have a digestive system under increased pressure. Changes in stomach acidity, appetite, stress levels and digestion can all influence gut function during this time.

* Support the maintenance of a balanced gut microbiome
* Support normal digestive function and feed utilisation
* Support the gut during periods of stress or dietary change
* Support the digestive system while ulcer medication is being administered
Ulcer medications are designed to manage gastric acidity.
Pre & probiotics are designed to support gut balance and microbial stability.
Different roles, working alongside one another as part of a broader management approach.

However, appropriate digestive support during and after ulcer medication may help support the digestive system as it adapts to changes in acidity, stress and diet.
For horses that are ulcer-prone, gut support is about long-term management โ not quick fixes.
