A cough in a dusty stall can slow a horse down fast, and the stall is often the reason. Cough Free is a respiratory health supplement for horses in palatable pellets. The herb and mineral blend goes into the regular feed routine, so you add support without a new step at feeding time. It is made to help support normal respiratory function when a horse has stable cough, dry cough or seasonal allergies from pollen and other irritants such as dust.
It is built for the stabled horse with limited or restricted turnout, the one who spends long hours breathing ammonia and stale air. The formula is show-safe, with no prohibited substances, so it can stay in the program through show season. Check with your association before you compete.

Why choose a respiratory supplement for the barn
Dust, pollen and ammonia are the usual irritants in a horse's airway, and a closed-up stall collects all three. The first fix is the barn itself: clean bedding, good airflow and low-dust hay. A supplement fits alongside that work, not in place of it.
It suits the horse with a dry cough at the start of hay season, the show horse on a stabled schedule, and the older horse who spends most of the day indoors. Pellets are easy to stir into a grain ration, so the routine stays simple.

How to feed it
Use the enclosed scoop and follow this schedule:
- Give 2 scoops (32 g) per day for the first 14 days.
- Then give 1 scoop (16 g) per day after that.
- Measure every feeding with the enclosed scoop so the dose stays steady.
Good to know
- Keep the daily dose steady, especially through the first two weeks at the higher rate.
- Clean bedding, good airflow and dust-light hay cut down on the irritants that set off a cough.
- Keep the scoop with the bucket so every feeding stays on measure.
- Before a show, check your association's rules for the no-prohibited-substances formula.
Keep a bucket in the barn so a cough doesn't catch you waiting on a reorder.
