GASTROGARD ® is the first and only FDA-approved equine medication proven to heal and prevent the recurrence of gastric ulcers, even while horses continue to train. GASTROGARD provides the effective treatment your horses deserve through convenient once-daily dosing.
 GASTROGARD is a flavored paste, available in an adjustable-dose syringe. A single daily treatment for 30 days provides effective healing or improvement in 99% of horses, even while they continue training.
GASTROGARD has been developed specifically for the treatment of Equine Gastric Ulcer Syndrome (EGUS). It contains the active ingredient omeprazole; the world's leading anti-ulcer medication for humans and the #1 selling prescription drug. Omeprazole provides superior acid suppression because it effectively shuts down acid production in the stomach, giving the ulcer time to heal.* Omeprazole was the first acid pump inhibitor to be approved for use in humans, and is now the first and only acid pump inhibitor approved for the treatment of stomach ulcers in horses.
GASTROGARD is:
• The only FDA-approved equine medication for gastric ulcers. Unlike other ulcer remedies on the market, GASTROGARD meets the standards of the FDA to ensure consistent quality and effectiveness.
• Supported by a program of dose-confirmation trials, field trials, acceptability trials, and safety trials which were conducted to establish clinical utility.
• Proven to heal ulcers in just 4 weeks - even in horses that continue training
• Proven wide margin of safety in horses and foals as young as 1 month old
• Proven to prevent ulcer recurrence with continued administration of maintenance dose
• Convenient once-a-day dosing
• Easily administered, highly accepted, flavored paste formulation
