[RC] Pentosan Polysulphate - Nik Isahak AbdullahHi guys,anyone has any input or experience on the use of weekly injection of pentosan polysulphate as a prophylactic in older endurance horses or in horses with early OA?I have surfed the archive on ridecamp and there was only one article on pentosan.Roger Rittenhouse ,who seem always to have the 1st bite of any thing new and technical on endurance , is also blank on this issue.I have checked with my orthopods colleagues in my hospital whether it is used in human and no one seem to know.Maybe it come under adifferent name. But our local supplier who hails from Australia thinks it is more effective than oral or IM glucosamine.:Weekly injection times 4 and effect could last for 5 to 6 months. Sounds too good to be true! _________________________________________________________________ Find love online with MSN Personals. http://match.msn.com.my/match/mt.cfm?pg=channel =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
