Anti-inflammatory horse drugs - buy injectable DMSO, MSM, TRANSAM

Anti-inflammatory refers to the property of a substance or treatment that reduces inflammation. Anti-inflammatory drugs make up one half of analgesic, remedying pain by reducing inflammation as opposed to opioids and other pain killing medicines which affect the brain. DMSO was the first nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory discovered since aspirin. DMSO reduces inflammation by several mechanisms. It is an antioxidant, a scavenger of the free radicals that gather at the site of injury. This capability has been observed in experiments with laboratory animals and in colitis patients in a double-blinded randomized study. DMSO also stabilizes membranes and slows or stops leakage from injured cells. In addition, DMSO can carry other drugs with it across membranes. It is more successful ferrying some drugs, such as morphine sulfate, penicillin, steroids, and cortisone, than others, such as insulin. What it will carry depends on the molecular weight, shape, and electrochemistry of the molecules. Our injectable DMSO solution is safe to use in intra-articular injejtions. You can also distribute it via i.m. s.c. and i.v. injections. Transam Injection - Methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) is a naturally occurring source of bioavailable nutritional sulfur for horses, to aid in the prevention of sulfur deficiency in the diet. DMSO has been used to successfully reduce inflammation and swelling in joints and soft tissues after trauma or injury for many years. DMSO is rapidly distributed and metabolised in the body, but, interestingly , the therapeutic effect of DMSO has consistently appeared to last longer than could be explained. A direct metabolite of DMSO - methylsulfonylmethane (MSM) has since been found to provide the longer term benefits. As the active metabolite of Dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO), MSM is free from the adverse side effects and withdrawal times seen with DMSO.DMSO is an anti-inflammatory agent and free radical scavenger.Sulfur is an essential bonding element in hooves, skin, hair and connective tissue. It also occurs in certain enzymes, hormones and immunoglobulins (antibodies). Levels of MSM are low, or altogether deficient in many processed feeds such as cereal or pelleted food, and even sun-dried hays. The anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects of methylsulfonylmethane are recognised, and the ability of added sulfur to assist in the nutritional management of foot and hoof conditions in horses is also well recognised.
