Gabes Babe - 2014-08-29 8:54 PM  My bleeder is a silent bleeder and caused him to end up with a triple bacterial/ fungal infection. We almost lost him. I tried a few, lung aid helped with symptoms but I still kept him on LASIX. I now do what my vet recommends. He gets dex morning of and lasix before our run. Followed by electrolyte paste and all the water he wants post run.  It's a low dose of dex but it lowers the amount of LASIX I have to give him. Cost effective and he runs great. I tried vent and he was crazy! 

 Do you know you can get dex in powder or paste form too?  I don't use dex every single time I run because I don't want to have him on it that much.  I use it depending on climate, weather, etc etc.

Unfortunately none of the supplements worked to help get mine off Lasix

I feed Triple Crown so he is getting all his nutritional needs met and I give a daily electrolyte
I give lixotinic 3 days out before I run as well

I do lasix/kentucky red on race day - I do electrolytes paste and air power 1 hour out from running

Has worked well for me
