Nutramax Denosyl® EQ
Denosyl EQ is a mini-tablet supplement containing SAMe, provided by Mixlab for use in horses.
Denosyl EQ is a supplement providing S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe), an ingredient studied in the context of liver cell health, formulated for horses as mini tablets.
SAMe is a naturally occurring molecule involved in several biochemical pathways in the liver, including the production of glutathione, one of the body's antioxidants. As a supplement ingredient, it is not reviewed or approved by the FDA in the way a drug would be; your veterinarian determines whether a liver-support supplement is appropriate for your horse.
This description reflects general information about the supplement's ingredients; your veterinarian determines whether this product is appropriate for your animal.
This information describes a dietary supplement. Supplements are not evaluated by the FDA for safety or effectiveness and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Consult your veterinarian before use.
This supplement is generally well tolerated in horses; mild digestive changes such as decreased appetite, vomiting, or soft stool are occasionally reported, particularly when starting the supplement. SAMe tablets are enteric-coated in most formulations and should not be split or crushed unless your veterinarian specifically directs otherwise, as this can affect absorption. Contact your veterinarian if you notice persistent vomiting, diarrhea, or a lack of appetite. As with any supplement, keep your veterinarian informed of everything your horse receives so they can watch for potential interactions and confirm the product remains appropriate.
No. This is a dietary supplement and does not require a prescription. It's available for purchase directly through Mixlab.
SAMe absorption can be affected by food; many labels recommend giving it on an empty stomach. Follow the label directions and your veterinarian's specific instructions for your animal.
Let your veterinarian know about all other medications and supplements your animal is taking so they can advise on how this fits into your animal's overall plan, particularly around timing with other oral medications.
Duration varies by animal and by what your veterinarian is monitoring. Your veterinarian will advise on an appropriate length of use and any recommended bloodwork or rechecks.
