I researched heaves on here and found the cur ost post, looked at the website and don't know exactly which one would be for respitory? I got an 18 year old mare that I used to run back in the day but she seems to have stopped sweating and breathes hard with an occasional cough. I know there's so many supplements on the market so I'm looking for something that may treat both issues and is cost efficient! I don't mind spending $100 if it lasts more then a month!
She does run barrels but she's for my boyfriend and a backup for me so she won't bE ran hard or every weekend

If she is a non sweater, I would try putting beer over her feed. Then after she starts sweating I would go with One AC as a supplement. The breathing hard is because of the non-sweating.

If you are wanting to try Cur Ost go to secondvet.com and list her symptoms and ask Dr. Schell which he would use. However, they do have a page at nouvelleresearch.com that is a guide to which formula(s) would most likely work for your horse.
