Location: South MS | RnRJack - 2015-06-02 8:02 AM Anyone use Kentucky Red for their bleeder? It comes highly recommended for my good open horse, anyone have any experience or info?
I run my gelding on 5cc K-red (4 hrs out) and 5cc Lasix (3 hrs out) - both are IV
My horse would bleed thru 7cc lasix so I had to do something - tried feed thru and herbs and flair strips but nothing worked for him
Once I started the K-red I havent had a problem - I am actually going to start backing off my lasix some until I can see where his min dose is on lasix
K-red doesnt have the side effects that lasix does - from what I understand it was designed to be used during surgery to help prevent a bleed out! |
Kentucky Red?
