Prevention is the most important approach to equine digestive ulcers.

You should limit the stressful situations your horse has to face and allow free grazing and hay consumption once in a while. The saliva is a natural form of antacid which is produced from constant chewing of food as seen by horses that normally graze freely. If it’s not possible to allow free access to grazing, then the most appropriate approach would be to give medications that help decrease acid production. The best choice to ensure a top performance.
