A horse prone to ulcers needs steady support, and Ulc-R-Aid gives it in a powder you can feed every day or dose before a stressful day. It combines calcium and magnesium with ColostraShield, which contains more than 37 immune factors and more than 8 growth factors.
Feed it by body weight. The daily amount is 1 to 2 tablespoons per 1,000 pounds of body weight, and a second dose of 2 to 4 tablespoons goes in 30 to 60 minutes before an event that may bring stress or excitement. The pre-event dose is the one that earns its place on the shelf.
Highlights
- Nutritional support for horses of all ages
- Calcium and magnesium in one powder
- ColostraShield with immune and growth factors
- Daily feeding or a pre-event dose
- Dosed by body weight
Why a powder works for the ulcer-prone horse
Horses that travel, switch barns or work through a busy show season often go off feed, and a stressed horse is the one that needs support most. A powder stirs into the feed you already give, so it fits the routine without a new chore. Dosing by body weight means the amount follows the horse, not a guess.
Who it suits: a horse that gets wound up at the trailer or in new surroundings, a show horse with a packed calendar, or an older horse that needs a steady daily supplement. It is a nutritional supplement for horses prone to gastric ulcers, so talk with your vet about the horse's diagnosis and care.

How to use it
Weigh or tape your horse first, so the dose follows its body weight.
- Daily: 1 to 2 tablespoons per 1,000 pounds of body weight.
- Before an event that may cause stress or excitement: 2 to 4 tablespoons, 30 to 60 minutes beforehand.
- Measure the scoop level each time so the dose stays consistent from day to day.
Mix it into a small portion of feed so the whole dose gets eaten, and keep clean water available at all times. Steady hay and water are the foundation this supplement works alongside.
Good to know
- Keep a container ready for the days the routine gets unsettled, like a trailer ride, a new pasture or a show weekend.
- Start the daily feeding a few days before a known stress, so the horse is used to it on the day that matters.
- Competition horses: the formula contains L-tryptophan, so check your association's rules before you show.
- Pair it with a regular feeding schedule and a clean water bucket, the basics that keep a horse steady day to day.
