Just curious if anyone knew exactly what is legal and not?
FEI/USEF does not allow for ulcer guard - are they?
Same goes for herbs like devil's claw and yucca? Do we need to start looking at all of our "natural" supplements before we start running rodeos?

TMEquine - 2014-06-11 6:42 AM Why can't you use ulcer guard, that's a ridiculous rule!
According to this, Ulcerguard and therapeutic drugs with localized actions are Class 5 drugs, which have no penalty
Adequan/Pentosan go into this category as well. So basically, they are allowed....since there is no penalty.
However if you are giving it, I would call the hotline to confirm this. This is just what I got from reading the link above, and I'm not a vet or expert of any kind
