Hanna B. asked:So I know this question is asked all the time...buuuut, does anyone know where I can get generic omeprazole? Girl on a budget hereVictoria O. replied:Abler.comLisa C. replied:Abler.com Racehorsemeds.comOlivia L. replied:AbGard paste or AbPrazole granules from Abler ☺Julie O. replied:Abler!!! Totally legitimate website. A third of the price of what you’d typically pay.Haley C. replied:Yes Abler all the way!!Danielle L. replied:Abler, Horseprerace, Racehorsemeds, or Wedgewood.Anna R. replied:Use Abler. It's the most cost effective. Or use nexium, which is esomeprazole. Studies are looking very favorably on this. You'd need to get the "clear minis" and for one month do 3 pills. 2 weeks do 2 pills. Two more weeks do 1 pill. You give all the pills together each day, each dose 24 hrs apart. You cannot wet them. Most horses gobble them up with their food no problem. Horse PreRace has less omeprazole in their tubes than labeled. It might still work on some horses though.Katherine B. replied:You can give Rantidine at a dosage of 3 mg/lb. Every 8 hours (though I know folks who have had luck, giving it twice daily). Continue for 30-60 days. That said, I like the Omeprazole sachets from.Abler.Michelle B. replied:Nexium works too - put in apple sauce in syringe and dose 3 pills per day - abler products are great to! Either way don't forget to taper at end of treatmentJulie S. replied:AblerDianna J. replied:Abler is awesomeSophie E. replied:Abler.Tammy S. replied:Abler Products!!!! https://www.abler.com/Nancy L. replied:www.abler.com - one month worth costs $211 with free shipping. It works. I bought the stable pak (seems like one tube does 5-6 doses - it's cheaper than the one for individual doses). then you need to do the next month on smaller dose

Julieanne B. asked:Advice wanted on Ulcer treatment products - what does everyone find works best between ulcershield, gastrozol and omogard? I’m finding the vets differ in their recommendations and there is often a big difference in price. Also any advice on gut health supplements would be greatly appreciated. The horse has been seen by vets so just after people’s experience:)Alison C. replied:https://www.abler.com/

Cassie W. asked:Someone posted about using omeprazole (store bought from wegmans) for ulcers but I can't find the post now. Anybody know about dosage? Thanks in advanceDanielle L. replied:You can get generic Omeprazole from horseprerace.com - I've used it for years & it has treated many of my horses... It is very expensive to use the pills from the store because you need to give them 114 Omeprazole pills in order to reach the treatment dose. I also suggest abler.com - I have had success with their products as well.Nicole V. replied:I just went through a 30 day treatment using Abler's omeprazole formula and she is now ulcer free after having grade 3 ulcers. I would suggest not to go with human omeprazole because as soon as you crush it up it loses its enteric coating needed to get through the stomach acidic. Also, they recommend 2.28 g but I only gave 2/3 the dose and it still worked wonders on my mare.

Jackie B. asked:Where does everyone buy their Omeprozole? Thinking of trying it for my two...looking for cost effective places to buy since I have two. Thanks!! PFAElishia A. replied:Abler.comNicole V. replied:I would say go with Abler.com abprazole. But just be careful, omeprazole can be harmful if given for too long and you should slowly take them off it when you're done. It takes about a week to 10 days for the healing process to actually begin so I suggest supplementing with ranitidine or sucralfate for ten days when you start the omeprazole. You also need to increase their alfalfa intake, the calcium will help neutralize the acid. Aloe Vera juice is wonderful and try to reduce the amount of molasses in their feed as well.Hannah A. replied:Abler.comTyline W. replied:A bunch of us when in on abrazole from Abler Equine. It was cheaper that way and waay cheaper than the $$$ stuff hereLayne S. replied:Buy from Abler for sure. My gelding has been on the abprazole granules for 2 weeks at the treatment dose and there has been a very noticeable difference in his behavior. It'll end up being like $220 to treat him for 28 days.Tracey M. replied:AblerDawn A. replied:Abler is the most cost effective place that I know of to get omeprazole.Nancy L. replied:www.abler.com - one month's supply of the treatment dosage (same as gastrogard dose) is $211 with free shipping

It would be wonderful if I could get some ideas where to find it cheaper than $35-40 a tube. Thanks in advance!! P.S. I did find a manufacturers rebate for it :) Pic for attentionColleen S. replied:https://www.abler.com/ They have omeprazole in paste, granules, and tablets. Good prices.Tracey M. replied:Look at Abprazole by Abler. Same product but can be put on food or you can order syringes. I use it on my ulcer boy. LOL Much cheaper!!!!!

Devyn T. asked:Anyone on here have any luck with any of the generic omeprazole pastes? My vet thinks it would be a good idea to treat my boy since he was in race training (didn't do a scope) and I can't really bring my self to spend $30 on a tube of stuff that is on another site for $8!! I'm specifically looking at the horseprerace site. Any tips, recommendations, and experiences are appreciated!Laurie M. replied:I haven't used horseprerace but have been using Abler happily for many yearsBree L. replied:When I started treating my mare, Dover had ulcerguard on sale, so she got a weeks worth of ulcerguard. I then did my first order from Abler, and while I was waiting (took 20 days to get to me), gave my mare 10 generic tablets (Wal Mart brand) of omeprazole and still saw good results. While I was waiting for my first order from Abler, I also read an article on The Horse about ulcer treatments and how even a small amount of omeprazole (1/4 of the regular dose) can be helpful. When I received the Abprazole, I started my mare on the recommended 3 packets for a few days, then dropped her to 2 packets. I ordered a second round from Abler, and when I realized it was going to take a while to get to me (20 days again!), I dropped her to 1 packet per day. I'm seeing good results on 1 packet, so she will stay on that for a while. IN ADDITION to the omeprazole in her 3 rd meal, my mare gets apple cider vinegar in the morning (2 ounces), baking soda (2 tablespoons) in her dinner, and a small amount of alfalfa as a snack topped off with a generous splash of Aloe Vera. Alfalfa, with its high calcium level, has been shown to be beneficial to the gut and helping it heal. Apple cider vinegar helps calm the acid production in the stomach. Baking soda is used as a buffering agent to reduce the acid in the stomach. The effects of the baking soda last a couple of hours, so by the time she gets the omeprazole, there is a lower acid amount in her stomach and she is able to absorb the omeprazole in her small intestine better. All of this is on top of good pasture, 24-7 forage, low starch grain, and a quiet, calm barn.

Krista R. replied:Omeprazole is what the vets prescribe but it's super expensive here, I used www.abler.com and they have various granule options with or without digestive supplements, about half the price as it is here in NZ and it was delivered quickly. Just have to hope it doesn't get diverted thru customs but mine arrived quickly both times no dramas. Throw it in their feed and all good

Christina B. asked:Hi Guys, I am looking for some advice. First off I want you to know that my vet is involved with helping me, but I think there’s more I can be doing that the vet is overlooking. Hind gut ulcers, what have you used in the past to treat them? My horse has just finished a week treatment of Gastrogard (she had a gas colic last week), but the vet thinks she has hind gut ulcers and is supposed to be getting me a quote for a drug that treats the ulcers. While I wait for that, what have you guys done to support your horse after treatment too? Horse is currently on SmartDigest Ultra, G.U.T, SmartGain 4, and TractGard. She eats Triple Crown Complete, alfalfa pellets, and Legend’s Omega. She’s bit of a hard keeper and has been having a hard time adjusting to Virginia’s humidity as she’s lived in Ohio all her life up until February when I purchased her. Right now she is very depressed and her chronic diarrhea has not cleared up even after the week of Gastrogard. She is eating better, but I am more so worried about her depression. Thanks in advanced!Jordan G. replied:I've seen good results in friends horses with these products http://www.abler.com/gastric-ulcer-treatments

Please PM me for more info. ThanksAngela M. replied:Have you tried Abler as a more reasonable source for omeprazole? http://www.abler.com/Tasida K. replied:There are cost effective options! Abler, as mentioned is great for enteric coated omeprazole. Ranitidine is extremely cheap and helps hind gut ulcers that omeprazole can't touch! 24/7 turnout is a must. Alfalfa regularly helps a ton too

KJ K. asked:Alright, who has a homemade concoction that really works to get a horse to STOP chewing on wood!? I need cheap and easy. I have A LOT of fence/wood to cover
Jennifer O. replied:You can get omeprazole from www.abler.com It is much cheaper than ulcerguard that way. I have found ranitidine doesn't work as well. Along w/omeprazole, I use a product called Su-per GastroShield. It has slippery elm, licorice, marshmallow, and a couple other things that help soothe the intestine for horses w/ulcers. You can also try aloe and papaya, but i've had the best luck treating w/omeprazole, and then using GastroShield.

Deana B. asked:Anyone suggest a good equine ulcer supplement? Thanks!
Shantel B. replied:I have Layla on "blue pop rocks" which is the slang name for omeprazole in a granular form with an entrinsic coating on the outside which ensures that it gets past the stomach and further into the digestive tract. That is why Ulcergard and Gastrogard work so well - they have a carrying agent that gets the medicine to where it needs to go. If you go to www.chronicleforums.com and search on the Horse Care forum, you will find TONS of info about this. They even have a person who posts on there that is a chemist and even tested the coating to make sure it really could withstand acids, etc. Layla developed very, very bad ulcers. She would start pacing at 3 pm and would literally pace to the point of trotting for HOURS. Making herself lame. She was SO nasty to Rex. Wouldnt clean up her feed. Weaved. Overall attached to the neighbors horses to the point of needing sedatives like ace, rompum, and dormo which were like giving her water b/c she would get so worked up. Gastrogard works. Its a given. But its also $1000 for a month supply. Ulcergard is the same drug but it has instructions on the preventative dose on the bottle which is why you can get it without an rx. Just like you can buy 200 mg tablets of Advil or you can get an 800 mg tab via Rx. I personally do not have the money to spend on gastrogard or even ulcergard. Enough people have used the pop rocks that I decided to go ahead and try. They do offer a 20 sachet free trial. You just pay shipping. No gimmicks or secretly charging you. I did this trial. It really is a free trial and IF you want to get the rest of the sachets, you can contact them and they will then charge you for the other 80 sachets and send them to you. They are a Canadian based company and their medication is distributed from India and Canada. I have received medicine from both and have not had any issues. Treatment dose is 3 sachets a day for approx 6 weeks. You can then start to lower down to 2 sachets a day and hopefully you can get to 1 sachet a day and maybe even to no sachets and just dosing during stressful times. I did the free trial and started Layla on her 3 sachets. After 4 days, I could come home late from work and she would not be pacing as much and wouldnt weave while I got dinner ready. After about 10 days, I could be late and she would not be pacing at all and also no weaving. I kept her on the 3 sachets a day for 5.5 weeks. She became much more pleasant to be around. No more attacking Rex for no reason. No more literally running after him backwards trying to double barrel kick him. She was very vocal about getting her feed and hay. She would leave her hay to eat her feed (a key sign to ulcers is they prefer the hay over the grain and will eat it before the grain). She gained weight. I was sold. I had my old horse back. I did drop her down to 2 sachets a day and did not have any negative reactions. I kept her on this dose for 4 weeks. I then dropped her to 1 sachet a day. She started getting bitchy and weaving a TINY bit if I was super late for dinner and was a little more irritatble but she was also coming into heat so not sure what her deal was. But after a week of being on just 1 sachet, she seemed to adjust to it and all of the negative signs went away again. She has been on 1 sachet a day for a little over a month and so far so good. She has an anxious side to her anyways so that is why I keep her on magnesium. Being low in magnesium can present as ulcers and also when they have ulcers they get stressed and can be over reactive etc which stresses the adrenals which then pulls magnesium and then the levels drop. It takes 3 times longer to buid up magnesium than it does to burn it. So its a vicious cycle. And all magnesium is not created equal. It all depends on the form as certain forms are better absorbed so you get more for your money. I have both of my horses on MagRestore by Performance Equine USA. The drastic changes in both of them is why I keep them on it and will not take them off. It could be something to look into as a maintaince support after treating with ulcers. I would highly recommend you try the pop rocks IF spending the money on UG or GG is not in the budget. If you can swing the UG or GG, go for it! They are proven to work. But there are HUNDREDS upon hundreds of people who have used these "pop rocks" with wonderful success. If you would like to get the pop rocks or to read about them, you get them at www.abler.com You can click on the ad for the free trial on the top or you can click on "Equine gastic ulcers". They have a few different versions but the one everyone is using is the AbPrazole. You buy them in quanities of 100 at a time. If you have any questions about anything I just wrote, lemme know. I love passing along info esp when I have been there, done that and tried so many different things to see what actually works and what is worth the money.

Jessica S. asked:Does anyone have any advice for me? I have a 6 year old OTTB mare that only raced 3 times. She has days where she is an absolute gem, other days she grinds her teeth and fights any contact. She rings her tail and acts very girthy. I have treated her proactively for ulcers already, had the chiropractor out, played with different bits.... I am at my wits end.
Nicole E. replied:have you tried a triple jointed bit? Have you checked saddle fit? and what style of girth are you using. Abler.com has a cheap source of omeprozole that gave me night and day results with my mare. honestly, to me it sounds like something in the saddle is bothering her...my mare gets downright evil when her saddle doesn't fit correctly. Eta: and sometimes its not just the saddle...it could be that the saddle doesn't fit you and its causing pressure in different areas.
