🧴 It is Medicine Monday! And it is all yellow. That is right we are talking about Furacin or Fura-zone Ointment (Nitrofurazone). Not all wound products are created equally and may be a detriment to wound healing.

💛 Nitrofurazone is a topical water-soluble ointment with antibacterial properties for superficial wounds. And it is commonly used in combination with DMSO gel as a “sweat” for horses with cellulitis. Nitrofurazone should never be used on open wounds. Research has shown that nitrofurazone inhibits wound healing by as much as 24%.

☣️Nitrofurazone is associated with carcinogenicity, defined as the potential of a biomaterial to promote tumor formation. This has led to many horse owners throwing out their supply due to this risk.

🩺 We always recommend seeking veterinary advise and an exam when it comes to wounds. Wounds may involve important structures including bone, tendon sheaths and/or joints. It is important that wounds be thoroughly examined by your veterinarian so they can recommend appropriate diagnostics, treatment options and possible referral to an equine hospital.

❌ Now, Fura-Zone is no longer available; other nitrofurazone products are still available.

Twitch - Friend or Foe ?
A correctly applied twitch can make all the difference when it comes to getting a procedure done quickly and safely in equine practice. Some clients are taken aback when we employ a twitch to help facilitate various procedures such as nerve blocking, re**al exams or endoscopy.
Contrary to many people’s expectations, a nose twitch is not only a means of physical restraint, but squeezing the upper lip releases endorphins which helps to relax a horse. This takes the better part of a minute to occur but some horses will relax to the extent that they appear lightly sedated.
Please remember, being an equine vet is regarded as being one of the most dangerous professions out there and we do these procedures on a daily basis. So it makes sense to use every means available, every time, to make the procedure as safe as possible, not only for our vets but also for our patients.
