Troubleshooting
Horse is reluctant to eat supplemented feed
Start by mixing a small amount of Echinacea with a larger portion of palatable feed. Gradually increase the proportion of Echinacea as the horse becomes accustomed to the taste.
No visible improvement in the horse's condition
Ensure the correct dosage is being administered consistently according to the feeding guide and the horse's weight. Full benefits may take several weeks of regular use to become apparent. Consult with a veterinarian if concerns persist.
