I strongly recommend Fluphenazine right after a horse is gelded. You have the results of the horse being cut right away without having to wait for the testosterone to be completely out of their system.

I disagree Rodney, in general the potential adverse reactions and unknowns with this unapproved medication are too great for such a cavalier use. Besides, usually the castration itself will slow them down a little for a week or two. DrO

I have a horse with shivers. It was brought to my attention that prolixin may help. What are your thoughts?He is currently on a high fat high fiber diet with regular exercise. He still lifts his leg and trembles it when he is asked to stand.I am out of Ideas.

Welcome to Horseadvice Terry, I believe we can help you with your question but let me get you started off right so you can get the best answer as quick as possible. You will get more and faster responses if you start your own discussion rather than post at the bottom on another member's discussion. Each discussion is "owned" by the original poster and all replies in that discussion should either directly or indirectly address the concerns of the original poster. To start your own discussion back up one page using the navigation bar at the top of this page. This will be a Article Page on this topic. Below the article you will find a list of already existing discussions on this topic. Under this list you will find the "Start New Discussion" button. This is a good topic on your subject so you should first review the article as it will have important information on your subject. Next check the titles of the already existing discussions to see if your question has already been answered. If your question remains unanswered, now is the time to Start a New Discussion. Select a short title that describes your specific concern. A title like "Help!!!" does not help others find your specific topic. Instead something like "Ace for Colic?" allows others to rapidly find and understand what your topic is about just by viewing the title. This is likely to bring more responses from those with some experience with your topic and allows members to find answers to their questions quicker.
