Great info 👏🏼

🧴It is Medicine Monday! This time we are talking about the prescription topical ointment known as Animax (generic) or Panolog (original name brand) or simply the “other yellow stuff.”

🧴 Animax Ointment combines nystatin, neomycin sulfate, thiostrepton, and triamcinolone acetonide in a non-irritating polyethylene and mineral oil base formulation. What does all of that mean? Animax is anti-inflammatory, antipruritic, antifungal and antibacterial. Nystatin is antifungal. Neomycin sulfate is a broad spectrum aminoglycoside antibiotic . Thiostrepton is an oligopeptide antibiotic effective against gram-positive bacteria . And triamcinolone acetate is a corticosteroid that aids in relieving pruritus.

🧴 Animax ointment is labelled for the treatment of acute and chronic otitis (inflammation or infection of the ear), interdigital cysts (inflamed bumps/nodules in between the toes or webbing of the paw) in cats and dogs and in a**l gland infections of dogs. However, Animax has its place as an effective treatment for specific types of wounds and skin disorders when it comes to horses including granulation tissue and scratches (equine pastern dermatitis aka mud fever).

🩺 We always recommend seeking veterinary advice 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.

🐴🦷 Don’t Wait for Your Horse to Show You They Have a Dental Problem!

Routine dental care is an important part of keeping your horse comfortable, healthy, and performing their best.

Horses continually erupt new tooth material throughout their lives, and normal chewing can create sharp enamel points. These points can rub against the cheeks and tongue, causing discomfort that may show up as:

🦷 Difficulty chewing or abnormal eating
🌾 Dropping feed or “quidding”
👄 Cheek or tongue irritation
🐎 Resistance to the bit
🎯 Changes in head carriage or performance
😬 Behavioral changes under saddle

Most horses benefit from a thorough sedated oral examination and dental float at least once a year, when indicated by the examination. Regular dentistry allows us to identify and address problems before they become painful or more complicated.

🏆 Performance horses may benefit from dental checks every 6 months. Keeping the mouth smooth and comfortable can help prevent dental discomfort from interfering with bit acceptance, training, and peak performance.

And remember—horses are experts at hiding pain. A horse that is eating normally can still have significant dental disease.

Routine dentistry isn’t just about fixing problems. It’s about preventing discomfort and keeping your horse comfortable for the long haul. ❤️🐴

📅 Talk with your veterinarian about the right dental schedule for your horse based on age, dental history, diet, and workload.

Healthy mouth = happy horse! 🐴🦷

If we've been out to your barn — or have worked on your dog or cat — lately, we'd love to hear how it went.

Reviews are how new clients find us. Horse owners especially want to know that the vet pulling up for a lameness workup or spring shots actually knows their way around a horse. Hearing that from people who've had us on their property carries a lot more weight than anything we can say about ourselves.

It takes about a minute, and the link's in the comments.

Thank you for trusting us with your animals — all sizes. 🐎
