Colic is a common digestive disorder among equines. It is a kind of abdominal pain that mostly has unknown causes. It can be seriously severe in some horses, while milder in some that can simply be resolved with the help of some medication. However, you can also add some supplements and laxatives to your friend’s diet to avoid symptoms of colic in the first place. Liquid paraffin, or mineral oil, is one of the most effective laxatives that helps improve gut functioning and promotes easy intestinal transit so that there are lesser chances of colic.
This is why Battles provide bulk packs of high-quality Battles Liquid Paraffin for Horse Colic. Suitable for long-term use, this mineral oil for horses is a gastrointestinal lubricant that helps ease the movement of digested food through the intestines more smoothly, so there is no discomfort for your pet. It is a clear, odourless, oily liquid made from saturated hydrocarbons that come from petroleum. Usually, it is safe for use with all livestock as it is also effective in providing relief from constipation.
Fundamentally, this liquid paraffin for horses lubricates the inside of your pet’s digestive system and helps soften stools, which eventually results in smooth expulsion of faeces without causing abdominal pain. It is safe to serve at a dose rate of 1ml/1kg of your horse’s weight. You can either dose it orally with a syringe or by a nasogastric tube. You can also add this mineral oil for horses with colic 1-2 times per week to your horse’s food.
