Platinum Skin & Allergy is a potent formula that may be helpful in horses with seasonal allergies. Allergies can appear both in the skin as well as the respiratory airways in horses generally from exposure to allergens like mold, spores and insect bites. Platinum Skin & Allergy formula works by helping to maintain a healthy immune system and providing ingredients like quercetin, a naturally-occurring antioxidant, 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.
