Herbal support for respiratory problems in horses

Respiratory diseases in horses can have a significant impact on the horse's value and work capacity by resulting in reduced stamina and limiting the horse's performance. Respiratory problems can also lead to reduced appetite, weight loss and poor coat quality, further reducing the horse's marketability and overall value.

Causes of respiratory problems in horses

Respiratory disease in horses (such as COPD or Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (also known as heaves or RAO), equine inflammatory airway disease, bronchitis and allergic respiratory disease) is usually caused by exposure to environmental allergens (dust, pollen and mould spores in hay, straw or bedding). These allergens irritate the airways, which can lead to inflammation, excessive mucus production, bronchial constriction and respiratory symptoms (coughing, wheezing and difficult breathing).

Respiratory problems in horses can occur at any time of the year. In late summer and autumn, the presence of dust, pollen and mould spores, and during the winter months, stabling can exacerbate respiratory problems due to increased exposure to dust and poor ventilation. Horse owners should therefore take care to manage and prevent respiratory problems in their horses throughout the year.

Complex management of respiratory problems in horses

Alleviating respiratory problems in horses requires a complex approach that includes environmental management (minimising exposure to allergens), the provision of high quality nutrients, inhalation therapies (steam, essential oils), alternative therapies (acupuncture), the reduction of stress factors and the use of herbal feed supplements that act on the respiratory system.

Pulmofarm T: a proven effective solution for respiratory problems in horses

Certain herbs have anti-inflammatory and bronchodilator properties and can help reduce inflammation of the airways and improve respiratory function. Pulmofarm T powder is a herbal preparation with bronchodilator properties. It gives relief in respiratory problems, such as asthma and allergy, and helps relieve stress. Its ingredients support respiratory functions and help rapid recovery from respiratory illnesses.

Already proven in Bábolna

Between March and September 2021, Dr Daniella Horváth, veterinary surgeon, conducted a trial with Pulmofarm T on seven horses from the Bábolna National Royal Stud Farm (Bábolna, Hungary) suffering from throat irritation, coughing, breathing difficulties, choking and allergic respiratory problems. The use of Pulmofarm T resulted in very positive changes in all the animals treated:

After the first few days of use, Pulmofarm T dissolved the deposited mucus and cleared the airways.
With regular use of the product, coughing ceased or was significantly reduced.
Animals with a reduced appetite started to eat again and maintained their appetite with regular treatment.
Previous steroid therapy could be discontinued while inhalation was maintained.

Pulmofarm T is made exclusively from natural ingredients and can be used in organic farming. There are no known contraindications or undesirable side effects.
