Melox is an antioxidant supplement for horses under oxidative load — hard work, illness, injury recovery, or age. It is also used for chronic cough and inflammatory airway disease. At 15g a day for a horse it is a small-dose supplement, so it is a top-up to a balanced ration rather than a substitute for one.
Available here in 300g and 900g. Australian made.
What is in it
Natural vitamin E, vitamin C, organic selenium as selenomethionine (76.6 mg/kg), yeast derivatives and freeze-dried melon fruit as a natural antioxidant source.
Benefits
- Muscle recovery — aimed at horses in heavy or repeated work
- Respiratory support — used in chronic cough and airway inflammation
- Immune function — through illness and convalescence
- Breeding stallions — fertility support
Feeding
Horses 15g daily, ponies 7g. The dose can be doubled ahead of strenuous work or through a stress or immune challenge. A measuring spoon holding about 15g is included. Selenium accumulates, so check what else in the ration already supplies it before doubling long term.
