Description

Equine stomach ulcers can occur as a result of multiple causes including stress from travel, training or competing, limited turnout or grazing, or even just changes in routine. If your veterinarian diagnoses stomach ulcers in your horse, start the healing process with GASTROGARD (omeprazole), a unique omeprazole paste formulation which protects the omeprazole as it makes its way to the small intestine for adequate absorption. It is the only equine ulcer treatment product proven to be safe and effective and approved by the FDA. IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION The safety of GASTROGARD (omeprazole) paste has not been determined in pregnant or lactating mares. For use in horses and foals 4 weeks of age and older. Keep this and all drugs out of the reach of children. In case of ingestion, contact a physician. Caution: Federal (USA) law restricts this drug to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian. For additional information, please refer to the full prescribing information.
