Sucralfate Tablets

Description

Sucralfate is a prescription drug indicated as an ulcer treatment for horses. Sucralfate is most effective in treating ulcers affecting the glandular part of the stomach. Sucralfate appears to provide significant pain relief in horses that show abdominal pain due to ulcers. Since ulcers in foals and adult horses often involve the non-glandular part of the stomach, or the squamous areas, a veterinarian's diagnosis is important.

I give Sucralfate during stress, trailering, showing, or weather changes, and it really helps keep my horse comfortable. I’ve noticed fewer signs of tummy trouble, and he stays more focused and relaxed overall.

My vet prescribed Sucralfate after my horse was diagnosed with ulcers, and I've seen big improvement ever since. Within a couple of weeks, he was eating better and less girthy.
