Danilon Equidos Gold is a treatment to alleviate pain and inflammation associated with various conditions, including the often debilitating laminitis in horses. Danilon for Horses is a trusted choice among horse owners and veterinarians, as it delivers effective relief while keeping the horse's comfort at the forefront.

Danilon Equidos Gold works by harnessing the powerful anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties of its active ingredient, Suxibuzone. This non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) functions by inhibiting the production of prostaglandins, the compounds responsible for pain, swelling, and inflammation. By targeting the root cause of discomfort, Danilon provides prompt and effective relief, allowing your horse to regain its mobility and overall wellbeing.

Laminitis in horses is a painful and potentially crippling condition that affects the sensitive laminae of the hoof. These tissues play a crucial role in connecting the horse's hoof wall to the underlying bone structure. When inflammation occurs, the compromised blood flow leads to severe pain and, in some cases, permanent damage. The importance of timely and appropriate intervention cannot be overstated, which is why many horse owners turn to Danilon Equidos Gold for its proven efficacy.

Danilon containins 3g of yellow. odourless granules for top dressing. Each sachet contains the same 1.5g of Suxibuzone (microencapsulated) as the older 10g sachets. Also contains quinolone yellow (E104)
