Osmo-Lyte Rapid is the osmo-lyte active formulation in gel form, and the form is the whole point of it. Where the other two are powders you scoop into a feed, this is an electrolyte gel for horses that is measured in millilitres, which is what you want on a truck, in a float or at a one-day event where the horse may not eat a bucket but will still take a dose. It is not the minerals-only osmo-lyte powder, and it is not the powdered active, although it carries the same B-group vitamins and betaine as the active. PeekAPaw stocks it in 250ml and 1L, so you can keep a small one in the gear bag and a larger one in the feed room. The published analysis is stated per 50g of gel, and the daily amount steps up with the horse's workload.
