Veterinary Liniment Gel with Menthol and Herbal Extracts for Horse Muscles and Joints in 3 Size Options – Absorbine

Veterinary liniment gel delivers a targeted warming rub for temporary soreness in horse muscles, joints and tendons. Absorbine combines natural menthol with calendula, echinacea and wormwood extracts in a non-greasy spearmint-scented gel that is easier to place on a specific area than a liquid liniment.

Choose a twelve-ounce single bottle, twelve-ounce two-pack or three-ounce-plus-twelve-ounce combination. The documented twelve-ounce bottle measures about three by two by seven inches and weighs 12.8 ounces. The source directions say to rub the gel in thoroughly three or more times daily for temporary pain and swelling, applying with the lay of the hair. A light wrap may be used only as the label permits. Do not apply beneath the saddle area when the horse will be ridden after treatment. Use the current package directions and veterinary guidance for the individual horse, particularly with persistent pain, heat, lameness, swelling, broken skin or a suspected acute injury. Avoid eyes and mucous membranes, wash hands after application and prevent unintended licking. Stop use if irritation occurs. The source lists the formula as competition-safe under USEF rules when used as labeled, but riders remain responsible for checking current event and governing-body medication rules before competition.
