Description

Prascend (Pergolide) helps manage pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID), also known as Cushing’s disease, in horses. This veterinarian-recommended medication regulates hormone levels, reducing symptoms like excessive sweating, muscle loss, and abnormal coat growth. By supporting endocrine balance, Prascend improves your horse’s overall health, energy levels, and quality of life. The small, easy-to-administer tablets ensure precise dosing for effective long-term management. Ideal for senior horses or those diagnosed with PPID, Prascend helps control disease progression and promotes a healthier, more comfortable life.

Prascend does its job well.

by

My 28yo OTTB was diagnosed earlier this year with "early Cushings" (a rating of 33 with anything over 30 being in the Cushings range). I began treating him with Prascend and he has lost all symptoms of Cushings, based mainly on the looks and condition of his coat. He can be fussy about medications by mouth, but he eats the carrot pocket with the pill inside without issue.
