Frequently Asked Questions About Larson Laboratories

Q1: What does Larson Laboratories make?

Ans: Larson Laboratories, which operates as Vetline Equine and is based in Fort Collins, Colorado, develops topical veterinary skin products for horses. The company is best known for XXTERRA, a herbal paste used to treat equine sarcoids, and also offers Dermequin. Its formulas have been used in equine practice for decades.

Q2: What is XXTERRA used for?

Ans: XXTERRA is a topical herbal paste made by Larson Laboratories for treating equine sarcoids, the most common skin growth in horses. It combines bloodroot extract and zinc chloride to prompt the horse's immune system to reject the abnormal tissue. It is intended for veterinary use on animals only.

Q3: How does XXTERRA work?

Ans: XXTERRA works by altering the antigenicity of sarcoid cells, so the horse's immune system recognizes and attacks them. The bloodroot alkaloids and zinc chloride also create surface inflammation that helps the sarcoid slough away. Because reactions can be significant, treatment should always be guided and monitored by a veterinarian.

Q4: Is XXTERRA safe for my horse?

Ans: When used under veterinary supervision, XXTERRA has a long track record in horses, but it is a potent escharotic, so a strong local reaction and some scarring are expected. The manufacturer advises against using it on the ears or around the eyes. Always have a vet confirm the diagnosis first.

Q5: Do I need a prescription to buy XXTERRA?

Ans: In many regions, XXTERRA is sold without a prescription as a topical herbal product, though it is not an officially registered drug. Rules vary by country, so check your local requirements. Regardless of prescription status, sarcoids should be diagnosed and treated by a qualified veterinarian.

Q6: What are equine sarcoids?

Ans: Equine sarcoids are the most common skin growth in horses worldwide, with a prevalence of up to twelve percent. They are linked to bovine papillomavirus and, while they do not spread to internal organs, they are locally invasive and often recur. A vet should always confirm any suspected sarcoid.

Q7: Is XXTERRA proven to work?

Ans: XXTERRA has been used in equine practice for over thirty years, and an independent peer-reviewed study in Veterinary Dermatology evaluated bloodroot and zinc chloride alongside imiquimod for sarcoids. Results vary by sarcoid type and location, which is why veterinary assessment before and during treatment is so important.

Q8: Where can I buy Larson Laboratories products online in India?

Ans: You can buy genuine Larson Laboratories products, including XXTERRA, online at HardyPaw, which sources authentic stock and ships to your door. Because these are veterinary skin products for horses, we recommend confirming the diagnosis and treatment plan with your vet before ordering to ensure you choose the right product and size.
