Understanding Your Joint Injection Options
💥Joint injections aren’t one-size-fits-all. 💥
There are multiple treatment options available depending on your horse’s specific needs:
🔹 Steroids – Reduce inflammation quickly and effectively. Reserved for advanced arthritis as it does not protect the cartilage of the joint.
🔹 Hyaluronic Acid (HA) – Supports joint lubrication and cartilage health. Often combined with steroids for enhanced results.
🔹 Regenerative Therapy (ProStride, PRP, IRAP, A*M) – Harnesses the horse’s own blood to reduce inflammation, promote healing, and protect cartilage. This all-natural approach helps slow joint degradation and provides long-term relief without steroids.
🔹 Noltrex – A synthetic lubricant that provides cushioning for joints with significant wear.
🔹 Arthramid – A long-term injectable that integrates into the joint lining to improve lubrication and reduce inflammation.
⭐Regenerative therapies are an excellent choice for maintaining joint health in high-performance horses. ⭐
