Osphos Injection for Horses (Clodronate) 60mg/mL (15 mL)

Osphos Clodronate Injection – Bone Health Solution for Horses

The Osphos Clodronate 60mg/ml Injection is a specialized bisphosphonate injection formulated to treat navicular syndrome, a common cause of lameness in horses. Navicular syndrome is often linked to bone resorption and inflammation in the hoof, leading to chronic pain and reduced mobility. 

Osphos works by inhibiting bone degradation, reducing the inflammatory process, and providing long-term relief from bone-related discomfort. 

This injectable solution is ideal for horses suffering from bone pain and degenerative joint diseases, offering a more direct and effective treatment compared to oral medications. Whether your horse is an athlete or companion, Osphos offers a safer, quicker pathway to comfort.

Ingredients

• Clodronate Disodium (60 mg/ml) – A powerful bisphosphonate that inhibits bone resorption and reduces inflammation in bones affected by navicular syndrome.

How Does Osphos Clodronate Injection Work?

• Osphos inhibits osteoclasts, the cells responsible for bone resorption. 
• Osteoclasts are hyperactive in horses suffering from navicular syndrome, leading to increased bone breakdown. 
• Osphos slows down this process, giving bones a chance to rebuild and reducing inflammation that causes pain. 
• As a result, it helps restore your horse's mobility and overall comfort over time.

Dosage and Administration

Always consult your veterinary for exact dosage instructions depending on your pet's condition.

Consistency

Regular veterinary checkups are crucial to monitor your horse’s response and adjust the dosage as needed. While Osphos provides lasting relief, consistency in follow-up treatments is key to managing chronic bone conditions effectively.
