  • Provides horses trained on furosemide with targeted electrolyte supplementation
  • Includes highly digestible forms of calcium and magnesium, two key minerals lost after furosemide use
  • Features a palatable formulation to ensure consumption
  • Increases water intake and body weight replacement after furosemide use, so horses eat better and recover from the gallop faster
  • Stimulates thirst so horses replace lost body weight faster
Horses with insufficient electrolyte replacement risk loss of stamina and early onset of fatigue. Race Recovery™ replaces essential electrolytes lost by horses trained on furosemide (Lasix®). Race Recovery stimulates thirst, increases water intake and body weight rebound, and improves recovery prior to racing. Race Recovery strategically replaces electrolytes at critical times following administration of furosemide, which is used to reduce the incidence of exercised-induced pulmonary hemorrhage (EIPH), or bleeding. In a series of studies conducted by Kentucky Equine Research, scientists measured the effect of furosemide on urine and fecal excretion of calcium, phosphorus, magnesium, sodium, potassium, and chloride in unexercised and exercised mature Thoroughbred geldings. Furosemide causes a substantial loss of minerals, including a 40- to 50-fold increase in 4-hour urinary sodium and chloride loss and a sustained calcium loss over several days. With Race Recovery, mineral losses are entirely reversible. Ra...
