Therapeutics In Horses - Safety And Side Effects - #044 The Horse's Advocate Podcast

I report here on the safety and side effects of 4 different therapeutics used for specific purposes in horses. These four studies come from the 2021 AAEP meeting I attended virtually.

1. Using butorphenol and detomidine in scoping TB yearlings for laryngeal function.
2. Using Equioxx or Banamine to determine if there is subgrade colitis.
3. CBD use in horses safety.
4. CBD use in horses for sedation and ataxia.

This podcast has some dry stuff, but I wrap each one up with what it means to horse owners, and at the end, I conclude with the problems in creating sound scientific research on horses. When you understand how constricted horse science is, horse owners will understand the difference between the erroneous conclusions of scientific studies from the researchers' good intentions. This discovery is a slow process for most of us, including the veterinarians listening to or reading these studies.
