Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What does Summer Games® Electrolyte Paste replace after sweating?

Ans: Summer Games® Electrolyte Paste replaces essential electrolytes and trace minerals lost in sweat, including sodium, chloride, potassium, and magnesium. The formulation is intended for horses that sweat during exercise, heat exposure, transport, or stressful schedules requiring targeted electrolyte replacement.

Q2: Which situations commonly require Summer Games® Electrolyte Paste?

Ans: Summer Games® Electrolyte Paste is commonly used during or after training and competition, during transport, in unfamiliar surroundings, and on hot, humid days. Electrolyte supplementation is indicated anytime a horse sweats repeatedly within a day or over consecutive days.

Q3: What is the labeled dosage for rest in hot weather or transport?

Ans: The labeled direction for horses at rest or being transported in hot weather is 1 tube. This use is intended to support electrolyte replacement when sweating occurs, even without ridden work, especially during heat and travel-related stress.

Q4: What is the labeled dosage for moderate to heavy work?

Ans: The labeled direction for moderate or heavy work is 2–3 tubes. The exact intake depends on sweat loss, workload, and environmental conditions. If multiple tubes are used in a day, do not administer more than 2 tubes per offering.

Q5: Why is there a limit of 2 tubes per offering?

Ans: Directions specify administering no more than 2 tubes per offering. When higher daily supplementation is needed, spacing the servings across separate offerings aligns with the labeled use and supports more practical management on training, competition, and travel days.

Q6: Why must horses have free-choice water with electrolyte supplementation?

Ans: Electrolytes should be paired with free-choice access to fresh, clean water. Directions caution against offering electrolytes to a horse that cannot or is unwilling to drink without veterinary guidance. Water access supports fluid balance when electrolytes are supplemented.

Q7: Should a horse still receive routine salt when using Summer Games® Electrolyte Paste?

Ans: Yes. Directions recommend free-choice access to a salt block or loose salt alongside electrolyte supplementation and fresh water. Routine salt availability supports baseline intake, while the paste is intended to replace additional electrolyte losses from sweating.

Q8: What is the serving size of Summer Games® Electrolyte Paste?

Ans: One 60 cc tube equals 1 ounce and is treated as a single serving. The single-dose tube format is designed for convenient administration when traveling, competing, or training, especially when horses need electrolyte replacement without measuring loose powders.
