Osteoarthritis Medication for Horses
Surpass Topical Cream is a highly effective non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) specifically formulated for horses.
Designed to alleviate pain and inflammation associated with osteoarthritis and soft tissue injuries, Surpass provides targeted relief directly at the site of discomfort.
Unlike systemic NSAIDs, which can cause widespread side effects, Surpass delivers diclofenac sodium precisely where it’s needed, ensuring fast-acting relief with minimal systemic exposure.
This cream is an essential tool for maintaining your horse’s comfort and mobility, allowing them to perform at their best, whether in training, competition, or daily activities.
How It Works
Surpass Topical Cream works by delivering the potent NSAID, diclofenac sodium, directly to the site of inflammation. This method ensures that the active ingredient penetrates deeply into the tissues, reducing inflammation and pain without oral medication, which can lead to gastrointestinal and other systemic side effects.
Benefits of Surpass Topical Cream
- Localized Pain Relief: The targeted application minimizes systemic exposure, reducing the risk of side effects commonly associated with oral NSAIDs.
- Rapid Absorption: The cream is quickly absorbed into the skin, delivering fast-acting relief to affected joints and tissues.
- Proven Effectiveness: Clinically tested and proven to reduce lameness in horses suffering from osteoarthritis.
- Convenient Application: Easy to apply with no need for bandaging, making it ideal for stable and field use.
- Reduces Recovery Time: Surpass helps reduce recovery time from injuries and chronic conditions by addressing inflammation directly at the source.
- Prevents Further Injury: Consistent use can help manage chronic conditions and prevent further injury by keeping inflammation under control.
Ingredients
- Primary Ingredient: Diclofenac Sodium - 1%
