I have a 20 year old with an old stifle injury. He raced for 6 years a long time ago and now it's starting to bother him much more than it used to. He doesn't even like standing for the farrier now because of it, when he used to be fine. He can't break into a lope without kicking his leg out. He's turned out 24/7 on good grass and on senior feed. I'm looking for a good supplement for him so he's more comfortable. He doesn't get ridden much, he's mostly retired.

Give Actiflex 4000 a try! You will see results in less than a week and its very inexpensive.

Or previcox daily might be a good option from your vet.

I get mine from Big D web. Cheapest and you get some free when they have a sale. I have fed CJ and saw fewer results. Platinum also costs well over 150 a month. Actiflex is about 40

You'll get the most bang for your buck with maintenance injections into that stifle 1-2 times yearly and getting him on a good injectable joint supplement such as Pentosan or Adequan.

I agree with this!!! I was just under the impression the OP was looking for a quick simple solution. But yea injections are the best.
