Product Information

Description

 

NB: 48hrs withholding before competition or race days. Use Alleve8 Compete as an alternative.

This formulation has evolved from a consideration of the dangers of administering phenylbutazone (Bute) routinely to horses sensitive to its side effects. Traditionally White Willow Bark and Devils Claw were used to manage pain. Guaiacum was traditionally used for Gout and Burdock as a blood cleanser for Rheumatoid processes. Maritime Pine Bark, Rosehips, Elecampane with  its Allantoin content , together with Yarrow in a Vinegar base all support and encourage repair.

This formulation may be used safely for both emergencies and in the long term for comfort.

The tonic will need to be given continuously for a minimum of 3 weeks, and can be maintained long term if necessary. Improvements are usually observed within 3-6 weeks on the tonic.

  • Fermented tonic to support a healthy microbiota.
  • 100% chemical free
  • 24 hour withholding period for animals scheduled for surgery
  • Safe for the stomach
  • Safe to give long term
  • Can increase dose safely in times of injury/trauma/oedema
  • Can be added to feed
  • Can be safely given alongside veterinary medications

Alleve8
I have been using this for a rescue Standardbred who was very sore around the hind. After 6 weeks, he is now playing a moving like a young colt! I have also been giving it to my mare, who 1 month ago started head flicking and has now been losing her skin/hair due to photosensitivity .Alleve8 enabled her to tolerate the discomfort and pain of scabbing and now bare skin.

It Really Works
We have been using this for some time now with our mini ponies who both have previously suffered from laminitis and one who has arthritis. It has been a game changer and has eliminated the need for Bute which was our aim. It's great how it can be safely used both long term and short term. Highly recommend Alleviate and will be continuing to use this product along with managing the other factors such as diet relating to laminitis of course. And even better that the ponies don't mind the taste.

Alleve8 works wonders
I started our 23 year old Equestrian Vaulting horse, Rusty on Alleve8 some time ago and the response to pain relief has been amazing. He has not shown signs of needing to return to using Bute as the Alleve8 Tonic is doing wonders.
Rusty has won NSW Vaulting Horse of the year 2 years in a row now (2024 & 2025) and he just keeps winding back the clock.
Thank you McDowell's for your fantastic products.

Great ptoduct
Very happy keeping my aged mare on Alleviate, to help her with arthritis and past hoof damage. She is also on a veterinary medication, with no adverse effects.

Essential Product
As a long term user of Alleve8, I can vouch for its effectiveness. My ponies have benefitted greatly in the event of laminitic episodes. With a multitude of valuable herbal ingredients, I always ensure it's always in my stocks. Of course, ultimate effect only gained if other forms of health management maintained.

Alleve8 - Brilliant Product
I always have Alleve8 in my stable. I have a couple of my old horses on it and it keeps them comfortable and active. I also have another of my older horses with a recurring eye issue on it, to help keep inflammation in his body down. Absolutely wonderful product.

Alleve8
As along time user of this herbal preparation, I am impressed with the relief in pain, therefore improvement in my ponies lameness, in the event of a laminitic episode. With its wealth of valuable herbs, Alleve8 is an integral part of my management plan, always ensuring I have supply on hand.

Mare with lower ringbone
I have been using Alleve8 on my 20 year old Mare for over a year now to help reduce her pain with diagnosed lower ringbone. Stiffness and lameness have improved. Also used on other horses with wire injuries and infections, especially great for relieving pain with hoof abscesses. A must have in your first aid kit.
