How do I feed Homeopathic remedies?

When feeding a Homeopathic remedy it does not matter what size the animal is as the aim is to feed for comtinuity not quantity. In the ideal situation you would feed one tablet three times a day but if you are not able to then feeding two tablets twice a day can be just as effective.

To feed simply drop the tablet into the inside of the lower lip and leave to disolve in the Mucus Membrane for 15 to 20 seconds. This is the quickest and most effective method.

Homeopathic remedies can be used on humans as well as animals. Call our advice line for further information.

Is it OK to mix different products?

Generally speaking there is no problem mixing together our herbal products with your horses feed but if you are worried in any way please call our Advice Line for further information.

How much should I feed?

There should be a guide on the label but the quantity will depend on whether your feeding a pony of horse and their weight.

For dried herbs - give approximately 3-4 weeks to be fully absorbed. For liquid herbs - give for approximately 5-10 days to be fully absorbed.

The amount can be increased or decreased depending on the individual circumstances. For on going maintenance small amounts will be sufficient for your horse to benefit over a long period.

If you feel there is little change with your horse after the correct feeding time please tell us about it and we might be able to recommend an alternative product.

Can my horse become addicted to herbs?

Ponies or horses will not become dependent on the herbs.

Is there a difference between dried herbs and liquid herbs?

It is all a question of how fast you want the herbs to work on your horse - see the New Zealnd Equine Herbals range.
