Product Description

Vetoquinol Zylkene Equine is a specially-formulated calming supplement that works with your horse’s body to provide a sense of relaxation and contentment by reducing chronic and situational stress. The formula contains 2000mg of natural, bovine-sourced, lactose-free hydrolyzed milk protein called Alpha-S1 Tryptic Casein but is commonly known as Alpha-Casozepine. This active ingredient has unique calming and relaxation properties that help to reduce stress caused by situational and environmental changes.

Stressful situations may trigger behavioral changes or issues that can make life difficult for horses and their owners. Horses communicate stress externally through stall walking, refusal to work, pawing, kicking, head bobbing and other changes in behavior and appetite, but some events can also trigger internal changes. These internal changes can negatively affect your horse’s overall health and quality of life, and may result in a suppressed immune system, elevated heart rate, teeth grinding, metabolic and gastrointestinal changes, and more. Vetoquinol Zylkene Equine works to promote a sense of calm, relaxation and mental awareness, without the drowsiness or tranquilizing effects of sedation.

To avoid additional stress, our top dress formula is easy to use and has a palatable apple flavor that horses and ponies love.Depending upon weight, simply add one to two packets of Zylkene Equine to your horse’s feed once daily at meal time three days in advance of a stressful event.

Because our supplement uses the natural power of Alpha-Casozepine, Zylkene Equine is flexible for short- or long-term use.

Free of lactose and preservatives, it’s ideal for horses with sensitivities. With just three simple ingredients: Hydrolyzed Milk Protein (Bovine) 2000mg, providing Alpha-Casozepine, apple flavoring and maltodextrin, Zylkene Equine contains no prohibited substances.

Researchers found that a substance in mother’s milk might be responsible for the state of relaxation newborns experience after nursing. This inspired the discovery of a unique milk-derived protein, alpha-casozepine, with proven calming properties. Alpha-casozepine promotes a sense of relaxation and contentment. It is non-sedating and all natural. Zylkene® comes in a convenient single oral powder administration 8 gram pouch. Made in the USA.
