Location: Alabama | I’ve never used the OE game changer, but i know it’s a previcox derivative. The vet recently prescribed my gelding 57 mg previcox daily while i was working and riding him and uping it during competition instead of my starting it 3 days before competition, during and 2 days after, as i had been doing.
I just don’t like the idea of him basically living on previcox, i was questioning if i could keep him on the game changer as a daily supplement with the same result but maybe it be a little better for him long term. |

Location: Buffalo, Wyoming | I am interested to see what everyone has to say. I have a mare that should probably live on previcoxx but if we could feed the OE and get somewhat of the same result I would rather go that route. |

| I have used Previcox. It does have its side effects. Can cause kidney problems. I switched to Game Changer and horses went off their feed. I didn’t notice a difference. Recently bought Dac Herbal Respond and love it. It’s all natural. Good results. You can give it every or night before a run and morning of. Great for pain and inflammation and it’s affordable. |

Location: ARKANSAS | The OE GameChanger is a Joint supplement and a Great one at that, but i have never heard of it being used in place of the previcox...I took one of my horses to OE in Decatur and he was placed on gamechanger and previcox at the same time, and he was to remain on both.... |

Location: 31 lengths farms | Please please please do not use the Previcoxx daily for longer than the labeled 14 days. I have a mare with kidney stones due to its use and an friend who's gelding went into kidney failure, though they did save him, from long term use of Previcoxx. ALL NSAIDS are hard on the kidneys.
I have found for my gelding with some foot issues that Cur-ost Pure works great and he seems to have more run in him on it than on the Previcoxx. |

Location: TExas | I don't use OE Game changer. But I use Bluebonnet/Stride animal health Rewind. It is a anti inflammatory, i have been able to take my horse off his daily previcox. It is a daily supplement. It has also helped my horse with allergies and his skin and coughing. I absolutely love the supplement. It is made to be able to replace previcox. I've had great luck with it and I have 3 horses on it. One is older 22 and still running, helps him big time, he feels a lot more free and runs harder on it. Another is 12 and has lived on half a pill of the large previcox daily most of his life, after fixing bad shoeing job he went down to 1/4 but still needed it. But now on Rewind he is completely off of it and feels better then he did while he was on previcox. My other one is 7 and I use it more for his allergies but helps him move better as well. He is a big big boy and seems to help him out a lot. |

Location: Oklahoma | Josh Harvey Is my Vet, when he prescribed my mare preivcox he also wanted me to use OE Game Changer (as basically an added bonus to what the previcox does), as long as I run that mare she needs to be given both. I really like the combination of both for her and it seemed to work great for us.
