Kohnkes Own Gastro Coat
Kohnkes Own Gastro Coat
Suitable for: horses who may be suffering from gastric ulceration or irritation, particularly due to low fibre diets
Gastric ulceration and irritation can cause a variety of symptoms in horses including girthy behaviour, reduced performance, wind sucking, picky eating, reluctance to canter, frequent drinking and slow eating. Saliva produced during the eating process helps to naturally buffer stomach acid, feeding high grain or prepared feeds that are sweetened or extruded can cause horses to eat quickly with reduced saliva production, resulting in a predisposition to gastric irritation or ulceration.
Kohnkes Own Gastro Coat contains sticky, chewy compounds that help to stimulate saliva production to buffer gastric acids. It also works by forming a protective coating on the stomach lining that lasts for up to 4 hours and contains vital nucleotides to aid in the regeneration of damaged stomach lining. Kohnkes Own Gastro Coat helps to stimulate appetite and may be given mixed into feed, by oral syringe or in a small pre exercise meal.

Feeding Guidelines
These are broad guidelines only, designed to assist with feeding your pet based on their weight, age and activity level. Always check the feeding charts on your pet's food packaging in conjunction with these feeding guidelines. Required amounts may differ between individual pets, and adjustments may be required to maintain optimal body weight.
Once or twice daily feeding is recommended for adult dogs, unless otherwise specified by your veterinarian. Puppies and kittens require feeding more regularly, with the total portion divided into three or four meals throughout the day. Ensure fresh water is available at all times.
