Robinson Animalintex is the original veterinary poultice and wound dressing, that has been used by countless customers for decades. It is made with a proven formula and manufactured in the UK in a facility that is authorised by the Veterinary Medicines Directorate (VMD), the UK authority that is responsible for enforcing the safety of veterinary medicinal products. It is ideal for the treatment of, Infected wounds, open wounds, mud fever, laminitis, abscesses, thrush, seedy toe, sprains and bruises.
Several poultices are available on the market, but only one is licensed by the VMD Animalintex. This license is very important because the formulation and manufacture must be strictly controlled, as poultices have a pharmaceutical effect on the horse. Animalintex contains Boric Acid BP, an active ingredient that promotes effective healing.
Hot dressing:
Cut the dressing to size and place it in a shallow tray of boiling water allowed to cool to 38°C (100°F). Once saturated, remove the dressing and gently squeeze out excess water. Place on the affected area with the plastic backing away from the skin. Hold it in place with a bandage.
Cold dressing:
After soaking in boiled water allow the dressing to cool thoroughly. Then apply to the affected area. It can also be chilled or kept in the bag and placed in a refrigerator.
Dry dressing:
Simply apply the dressing directly and bandage.
Ensure the poultice is applied with the plastic backing away from the skin.
The poultice should be changed at least every 12 hours. The progress of the ailment can be checked at the same time. If the horse does not respond to treatment or is showing signs of distress, call your vet.
