I have a gelding that runs on Lasix. Tons of supplements out there for healthy lungs. Are any of the supplements backed by independent research? This stuff is expensive. I'd like to be sure it actually works. Not to mention the herbal mixes aren't regulated in any way.

CEP daily lung is the best I have found by far but it doesn't replace lasix. Nothing does. If your horse needs lasix, it needs it.

I can't find any research on CEP. I've even reached out to corporate. How do you know you're getting the same product every time? What does it actually do? How does it help? Yes, he will get Lasix.

To be honest , I have no idea what their research is or if they even have it . For my two horses with allergies/ breathing issues that Hare had many vet visits and scopes , prescribed steroids, etc, it just plain works for them . Summer used to be a nightmare with dust but they have been on it a year and zero issues . Whatever is working is working and I'm not questioning it  lol

I have put mine on Air-Way from MVP. The young one had a cough and now he doesn't so I put the older horse on it and he is running harder than he was before. I actually see a difference. I don't know the research but I know it works. The ingredients are listed.

MVP Airway EQ - ingedients are listed and a very reputable company! When I run I use MVP's Breath O2 paste in conjuction.

Allergy horse here. He gets generic zyrtec in feed and runs on oxy-boost from oxyGen and a flair strip. Otherwise hes not comfortable after a run. He has been scoped and doesnt bleed but has a ton of mucous that just runs down his throat. I also nebulize albuterol for him before, during and after shows.
