Polyacrylamide products can be a fantastic solution to certain cases of advanced osteoarthritis in horses.
These products are injected directly into the joint to provide visco-supplementation (lubrication/cushioning) and re-establish healthy joint lubrication using hydrogel. Arthramid-Vet and Noltrex-Vet function in a similar way to hyaluronic acid (HA) however they do not degrade as quickly over time. In this way they can provide significant long term therapy and support for compromised joints.
We have been using Arthramid-Vet and Noltrex-Vet for several years with extremely impressive results even in otherwise refractory or severe cases.
Polyacrylamide gel can provide long term results even in certain cases of advanced osteoarthritis in horses.

Arthramid-Vet and Noltrex-Vet function in a similar way to hyaluronic acid (HA) however they do not degrade as quickly over time and do not require metabolization to be functional. In this way they can immediately provide significant long-term therapy and support for compromised joints.
