Does anyone have a suggestion for easing aches/cooling poultices on a horse with arthritis? Already been for x-rays and have NSAIDS from the vet. Just look for something to add to ease the pain.

Finish line original premium poultice is my favorite. I've tried a couple others but this stuff is just as good as anything. I also really like the EasyWillow gel liniment. My horses agree. The always relax when I rub them down with it.

Runners Relief and Furacin. Warm a full containter of FUracin in the microwave. Get the runners relief powder bc it's way cheaper than the poultice and lasts forever. Put about 3 scoops I think I'd have to look on the directions and mix it all up then apply with a sweat. It is magic!

Draw It Out is what I use on my arthritic gelding. He's not on any pain meds yet, this keeps him comfortable enough plus the Exceed 6-Way. I use DiO on myself all the time so I know it works.
