This daily probiotic formula provides both prebiotics (mannan oligosaccharides) and probiotics (Saccharomyces c.boulardii 1079 and Saccharomyces cerevisiae 1077) to support digestion and hindgut health. The prebiotics nourish the "good" bacteria in the gut, and support the digestion of fiber. The probiotics are important for maintaining proper pH levels, absorption of nutrients, feed efficiency and immune health. This formula can be helpful in horses that have difficulty maintaining weight, are susceptible to hindgut issues, or frequently have a loose stool.

Platinum Skin & Allergy is a unique formula that may support horses experiencing seasonal skin or respiratory allergies. Seasonal allergens may include grasses, molds, spores or insect bites. Signs your horse may have an allergic response include watery eyes, hives, itching or hair loss. Platinum Skin & Allergy formula works by helping to maintain a healthy immune system and providing ingredients like Quercetin, a naturally occurring plant compound, to maintain healthy histamine levels.
Platinum Skin & Allergy works best when given in combination with one of our foundation formulas such as Platinum Performance® Equine. For picky eaters, sprinkle less than the full dose during meal time, gradually allowing your horse to get used to the smell and taste. It might also be helpful to mix a small amount of water so the supplement sticks to your horse’s feed better and doesn’t sift to the bottom of the ration. If your horse doesn’t eat it right away, don’t be discouraged— it may take a few days for your horse to become comfortable with the change.
