Uniprim for gutteral pouch infection
By Catmom on Aug 5, 2020
Used this product previously for 35 days and the horse was significantly better, but there was still some nasal drainage. I purchased the 2,000 gram tub and have started the horse on it again. My vet suggested using the entire tub if necessary to totally eliminate the infection. I hope it won't take that long, but this type of infection is apparently stubborn and hard to eliminate. I see progress after about 2 weeks, but will continue with treatment until I am sure it's gone.
