If Adequan is going to work, it will do so quickly enough that you  
don't have to wait 6 months.  You should see improvement after the  
initial loading dose.   Shadow had arthritis in his left front  
pastern.  We started out on a 1-month program, but eventually ended up  
with an injection every 2 weeks.  His symptom was a subtle favoring of  
the left front, which I could feel from the saddle.  About once a  
year, the standard injection didn't do it, and we would need to repeat  
the loading dose.  If his shot was late, he would start going off the  
following week.  Give him the shot, and he was back to normal the next  
week.
