Product Information
Full details
Global Herbs Mud-X Cream is a specialized topical solution designed for horse owners looking to protect and support their horse's skin health during wet, muddy seasons or year-round. Its primary benefit is providing a robust barrier for sensitive areas like heels and greasy patches, though users should note that the cream is water-soluble, meaning it may require more frequent application in extremely wet or swampy paddock conditions.

FAQs
Can I use this on a horse with sensitive skin?
Yes, it is generally safe for sensitive skin, but we recommend a patch test on a small, inconspicuous area first.
Does this replace the need for oral supplements?
No, it is intended to be used in conjunction with oral supplements for a more comprehensive approach to skin health.
How often should I apply the cream?
For best results, apply daily or as needed based on the condition of the skin and the severity of the weather.
Is this cream safe for summer use?
Yes, the formula is effective year-round and can be used in summer months to support overall skin health.
What should I do if my horse has broken skin?
If there is any broken skin, bleeding, or signs of severe infection, contact your veterinarian before using any topical products.
Troubleshooting
Cream is washing off too quickly
Ensure the skin is perfectly dry before application and consider applying a slightly thicker layer or checking if the turnout area has excessive standing water.
Skin irritation persists
If the condition does not improve or worsens, stop application immediately and consult your veterinarian, as the skin may require clinical treatment.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best results, ensure the target area is completely clean and dry; applying the cream over existing mud or moisture can trap debris against the skin. Gently wash the area with a mild, non-irritating cleanser and pat dry with a clean towel. Apply a light, even layer of the cream, ensuring it covers the skin folds and heels thoroughly. Store the 200g container in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to maintain product consistency. It is safe for use on all horse breeds, but always perform a small patch test if your horse has highly sensitive skin.
