FAQ

How is Absorbine Veterinary Liniment different from Absorbine Veterinary Liniment Gel?
The liquid liniment is designed to spread easily and is often used over larger areas of the body or diluted for rinsing applications after exercise. The gel version is thicker and stays where it is applied, making it more suitable for targeted use on specific muscles, joints, or legs where controlled placement is preferred. Both are used in post-exercise care routines but differ mainly in texture and application style.


Can Absorbine Veterinary Liniment be used as a body wash?
Yes. The liquid formula is commonly diluted with water and applied over the horse’s body after exercise or sweating. This rinse helps lift away sweat, dirt, and residue from the coat while providing a refreshing, cooling, and warming sensation. It is typically used over larger areas such as the neck, back, and hindquarters during grooming or cooldown routines.


Do you need to wash Absorbine Veterinary Liniment off after use?
It depends on how it is used. When diluted as a body rinse, it is usually left on the coat to dry naturally. When applied directly to specific areas, it is also commonly left in place unless tack is going on or the horse will be exposed to conditions where residue buildup is not desired. Skin condition and tolerance should be observed after application.


Can you wrap a horse’s legs after applying Absorbine Veterinary Liniment?
Wrapping is generally avoided after applying the liquid directly to the legs, especially when it has been rubbed in. The combination of product, friction, and pressure from wraps can intensify heat and increase the chance of irritation. If any wrapping is used, it should be very light, temporary, and only on clean, healthy skin with close monitoring of the horse’s comfort.

Love!!

by -

By far my favorite liniment to use on my barrel horses, whether it’s pre or post race and exercising. No burning or itching, and is easy to apply even on myself!

Family favorite for horse AND humans as long as I remember

by -

Absorbine "Horse Liniment" has been a stand-by product in our family for horses and especially for humans in our family, as long as I can remember. Our house and barn has not been without it for as long as I can remember!

Amazing for sore horses

by -

I use this on my mare (eventer) after every ride and she is never sore. This product works amazingly and also smells great!

Go-To for Post-Ride Care

by -

A must-have after every tough training session. I use it on my gelding’s legs and shoulders, and it noticeably helps with soreness and stiffness. The liquid spreads easily and has a refreshing scent. It’s become part of our regular recovery routine.
