       Location: Texas! | barrelracr131 - 2013-12-21 7:28 AM DD2012 - 2013-12-21 8:12 AM Holy crap I have never looked that site. That's some voodoo witch doctor sheet in that place. I don't know how they get away with selling most of that crap. I'm pretty sure they aren't in the US
There's no contact number to call in...it's all over email
You also don't need an Rx for anything...... so yeah, shady and def not in the US....
Makes me wonder what QA/QC methods they use in their "pharmacy"
I asked my boss about horseprerace.com last time I was down and he said they are pretty sketchy and infact are based out of the country(i believe in Canada?) but get away with shipping to US because their website has a Nebraska address or something along those lines. |

          Location: Texas | Yes, they do have some weird stuff there. I bought Omeprezole from them and saw they had Pentosan. I've never bought it, so didn't know what was a good price. Oh well, I guess it was good for a discussion! |

Pentosan is used off label for oseoartritis and DJD just as Adequan is (but it's FDA approved to use Adequan) Here is a video of some vet's explaining Pentosan and a couple studies that show how it works.

   Location: Probably On the Road to the Next Barrel Race! | Canada has a great thing going if you are elooking to buy rx drugs...I buy 2 drugs there that cost me 200% less than buying American. For myself. If I couldn't get it there, I simply could not afford it. I'm up for Canadian pharmacies, totally |

The gluco I do a loading dose of one shot for 4 weeks, then i do every 3 weeks or more depending on if I have a weekend race coming up.
The pentosan I have only done the loading dose (1 shot for 4 weeks) and then monthly. Some people give it bi-weekly. |

     Location: Muskogee, OK | I get mine from Wedgewood. I havent ordered in a while so I dont know if prices are exactly the same but I couldnt see them going up too much as it hasnt been that long.
I get 100 mL of 250 mg/mL strength Pentosan for about $160. It's about 16 doses (depending on how much your horse weighs) and works out to be about $10 a shot.
I always do a loading dose (1 shot every 5 days for 4 shots) and then I give every 2-3 weeks after that if my horse is running often. Really like the stuff! I also feed Cosequin in conjunction with it as there has been studies in Australia done that show they work synergistically together. |

define like...lol
I will say my horse is feeling AWESOME....17, and acting like a youngin... I'm not riding a lot, so this is both good and bad right now lol
let's just say he REALLY wanted to buck yesterday, but he restrained himself and I am thankful lol
I am curious to see if this product will help me extend the time between getting his hocks done. he's basically on vacation right now. However, normally he is stiff in the hind end if he's long out on getting injected (which he is, since I'm not riding much), and the stiffness went away after I did the loading dose. I see it the most when I pick out his hind feet. He will fight me a bit if he's sore...and he feels really good and loose right now with little excercise. |
