  Cosequin Equine Powder, 1400 Gram Container By: NUTRAMAX Average Rating: 4.5 Total Reviews: 4 More Information Not as effective as Cosequin Optimized Formula  On: 2008-12-19I normally use Cosequin Equine Optimized with MSM, 1400 Gram Container but when I ran out and the local tack shop only had the regular formula, I bought this and figured that it would be pretty much the same. I looked at the ingredient list and it basically looked to be the same only not as concentrated. I figured there wouldnt be any difference in terms of efficacy. I was WRONG! Within about a week, Ollie was having problems again -- not as bad as with no Cosequin at all but still, not as good as he had been. He was not as happy under saddle and was not moving as well as he had been. Even in pasture, he didnt do too much more than trot for a few steps. You could tell he just didnt feel good. I went back to the OPT and once again, he is doing much much better. I was watching him in pasture yesterday and he was running around at a canter and trotting and just having a great time. He is much more relaxed under saddle and comes out ready to work... he doesnt need nearly as much warm-up time. I was told by the equine vet that the regular formula is a shorter-acting formula where the optimized has a time-release element. The recommended dose is 2 scoops 1x per day. However, I have found that I actually get better results by splitting that up and doing 1 scoop in the morning and 1 in the evening. My horse doesnt need grain so I just give it to him mixed with beet pulp. He wolfs it down like it is manna from Heaven. While the Optimum is more expensive (Amazons price is about 10 bucks cheaper than my local tack shop), it is worth every penny in terms of the quality of my horses life. I know how much I hate feeling old and achy. I would hate to inflict that on my horse -- especially when there is a product like this that makes such a big difference. I really cant recommend this product enough!! NCJAR Great price on multiple Cosequin  On: 2008-04-03We have 3 horses at our barn that use Cosequin daily. The price was GREAT for purchasing 3 containers of Cosequin and bonus points to NO shipping for FOB!!! Will definately order from this source again! Multiple Search On: 2008-02-22Searched at length for the best price for this item as my horse is on it daily. Went to a lot of the equine sites and found that Entirely Pets through Amazon gave me the best price, mainly because there was NO shipping cost. It works! On: 2007-03-24A good product at a good price. Fast delivery makes it an all round winner. |
