It's under Medications: Miscellaneous. I have an alphabetical index to the drug section that I see is not up. I will get it linked in this week.

Looking for something along the same lines as
Lasix. Needed for a horse prior to racing
that will not test. We are looking for clot-al
or kogenate. Any advice?

Lasix will definately test positive...there are not alot of things out there that won't...Fortunately, we are allowed to race our horses on Lasix here in Maine, but I know you can't in Canada....we raced over there once and used Clotal...it didn't work as well as the Lasix and the horse suffered for it....I've heard tell of people using Azium powder....ever heard of it?

Lasix is also known as Furosemide, in case you're trying to do a search for info. That might help you turn up more info.
