Panacure Power Pack


Freederic the Great was loosing weight. Not a lot but when the sun shone in the evening you could see a few ribs and his hind quarters could be rounder. Worming, extra food ( 30 pounds a day) and he was holding his own but not improving. His 2 pasture mates were round and ready to burst. Yes they were bullying him but he was eating his share and getting extra by himself.
Last Monday I started the 5 day Power pack treatment. I knew the Veterinarian's would use the power pack treatment prior to starting omaprazoline (Ulcer guard) treatment for ulcers. They don't know how it works but it improved the results for gastric ulcer. Frederic's treatment ended on Saturday with his last dose of Panacure. Yesterday he had noticeably gained weight with a nice round Hind quarters and I could not see his ribs. And when going to lunge him prior to riding, the "Gentle Giant" could not contain himself. He stood up and then took off when I was trying to clip on the lunge line. He ran and ran for around 5 minutes.
