Horse Medications — Compare Equine Pharmacy & Vet Prices
Horse owners can save 30-60% on Adequan, Previcox, Equioxx, Banamine, Prascend, GastroGard, and more. ScriptUnlock connects you to verified equine pharmacies and vets-that-compound — they bid; you save.
Equine compounding is a specialty that most online pet pharmacies skip. ScriptUnlock surfaces it.
Common horse health conditions
Equine arthritis & joint disease
Adequan, Previcox, and Equioxx are the workhorses of equine joint care.
Gastric ulcers (EGUS)
Almost every horse in active work develops some ulceration. GastroGard and compounded omeprazole paste are the standard.
Equine Cushing's (PPID)
Prascend (pergolide) is the only FDA-approved treatment. Compounded pergolide is widely available at significant savings.
Colic & acute pain
Banamine is the most-used NSAID for equine colic. Bute remains the go-to for musculoskeletal pain.
Navicular & bone disease
Tildren (IV) and Osphos (IM) are the two FDA-approved bisphosphonates for equine navicular syndrome.
Mare reproduction & estrus control
Regu-Mate (altrenogest) is the gold standard. Handle with caution — pregnant humans must not contact.
All horse medications
19 medicationsWhy horse medication often requires compounding
- Custom flavoured pastes for stallion administration (most commercial pastes work but flavored compounded options improve compliance)
- Compounded pergolide for PPID — significantly cheaper than brand Prascend with equivalent clinical results
- Compounded omeprazole paste for ulcer maintenance — 50-60% cheaper than GastroGard long-term
- Custom-dosed pain combinations for senior horses with multiple issues
Equine pharmacology differs significantly from canine/feline. Always work with a vet familiar with horse-specific drug doses and withdrawal times for performance competition.

Frequently asked questions about horse medications
Can I fill my horse's Rx at a regular pharmacy?↓
Yes — many US pharmacies fill veterinary prescriptions including equine medications. With a written prescription from your equine vet, ScriptUnlock connects you to pharmacies and vets-that-compound that bid on horse-specific medications.
How much can I save on Prascend (pergolide)?↓
Prascend retail at equine vet offices runs $150-200/month. Compounded pergolide (same active ingredient) through ScriptUnlock pharmacies often runs $85-125/month — savings of 30-50%.
Is compounded omeprazole as effective as GastroGard?↓
Compounded omeprazole bioavailability can vary. The FDA-approved GastroGard has guaranteed concentration. Many equine vets use GastroGard for the initial 28-day treatment course, then compounded omeprazole for long-term maintenance. Discuss with your vet.
Are competition withdrawal times the same for compounded equine drugs?↓
Withdrawal times are drug-specific, not formulation-specific. Always confirm withdrawal times with your vet AND your competition body (USEF, FEI, etc.) before any equine drug administration.
Do I need a different vet to use ScriptUnlock for my horse?↓
No. ScriptUnlock works with the prescription your existing equine vet writes. We just connect you to pharmacies and compounding vets who compete on cash price.
