Noroquin range now available for horses

Following the recent launch of Noroquin for cats and dogs, Norbrook Laboratories has added to its glucosamine based supplement range with powder and paste options for horses.
 
With six active ingredients including glucosamine, chondrotin sulphate, manganese sulphate, zinc sulphate, absorbic acid and N-Acetyl-D-Glucosamine, Noroquin is packed with more natural active ingredients than any known competitor making it a perfect choice for maintaining healthy cartilage, promoting joint management and ultimately keeping horses mobile.
 
Michelle Jones, brand manager at Norbrook, said: "In recent years, horses are increasingly competing longer which means maintaining the longevity of the horse is vitally important for long term success. 60% of lameness is related to osteoarthritis and is regarded as the major cause of disability in the athletic horse. 

"With increasing reliability on nutritional supplements and concerns from horse owners about their aging horse, our Noroquin for Horses range can be offered as alternative to traditional pain management products indicated for musculoskeletal ailments or alongside them as a completely safe addition to a joint management programme."
 
Noroquin for Horses is available in a choice of paste or powder for the horse.
 
Ms Jones added: "The Noroquin paste for horses is a highly palatable apple flavored paste that can be fed directly to the horse as a tasty treat and offers an alternative to traditional methods while the Noroquin powder for Horses is a highly palatable powder that can be mixed with food."

• Noroquin Powder and Paste for Horses is available from wholesalers in handy single-use sachets for accurate dosing and waterproof 1kg tubs.
