25 Not sure
Verified Purchase

Can't say that I noticed much difference except that my horse became very picky about her feed. Only change had been including alphabute so we stopped including it and she went back to eating every scrap of her feed! When we tasted the alphabute it had a really bitter and hot aftertaste which we put down to turmeric and horseradish listed in the ingredients! Obviously my horse doesn't have a taste for spicy food!!! Shame as I have been really impressed with other global herbs products I have tried especially the Gut Support. Not for us this time.

35 Not Palatable
Verified Purchase

By on 26 January 2021

Bought this for my 17 year old horse as he is indicating stiffness in his hind leg.
I have had my vet look at him and he did not yet want to treat him for bone spavin.
I bought both the Move and Alphabute. I have not noticed a difference yet but he has only been on it for a week. My problem is that he will not eat it, even though I have tried different favourite feed options. It does smell very strongly, especially the Alphabute. I use the Move in his morning feed and the Alphabute in his evening feed, but in both cases he just tends to kick his bucked around the stable

Q & A

Below are some recent questions we've received regarding Global Herbs Alphabute Super for Horses, including answers from our team.

Is this safe to give to my dog?

Kerry b

I have a pug 11kg with two hip dysplasia I was told to start her on this? Is it safe? And how much wld she need a day? Thank you x

  • VioVet Staff

This product is intended for use in horses only, I cannot advise it's use in dogs. If you are looking for a supplement to help with hip dysplasia in your dog then I recommend using a joint supplement like Joint Force instead.

Could alphabute provide relief for discomfort post farrier visit?

Hannah

I was advised by the old owner of my horse that he often becomes foot sore after the farrier has seen him. This normally only lasts a couple of days but on occasion has needed to use bute to relieve his discomfort. Would alphabute be suitable to use for short periods to help relieve the discomfort from his sensitive hooves?

  • VioVet Staff

Alphabute could well be helpful in this situation and would be worth a try. However it will never offer the same amount of pain relief as a prescription medication such as bute. If you find he is not comfortable enough on the Alphabute then you can speak to your vet about having some bute sachets to give him after the farrier has been.

Can I compete in affiliated competition when feeding alphabute

Dawn Hodgson

I completed British dressage my horse is starting with arthritis can I still legally compete when feeding alphabute?

  • VioVet Staff

This product contains no banned substances for competition horses so you can use it safely.

Will Alphabute help my elderly show jumper?

Chris keoghan

I have a 24 yr old ex grade A show jumper. He was not any pain relief when I got him in January 2015 but recently has become sore on his hind legs. It seems to be stifle related and when given prescribed Bute he becomes sound. I Donot want to give him Bute constantly would Alpha Bute have the same anti inflammortary effects?

  • VioVet Staff

Herbal replacements for "Bute" are not as potent and probably do not work in the same way. However they can seem to help many horses, though the mechanism of action has not been identified to my knowledge. The only way you will find out if it works for your horse is to try it. Many people use this product all the time combined with periodic courses of Bute if and when required. This might suit your horse.

Comfort

Gemma Palmer

  • VioVet customer since 2015
  • From: Devon, United Kingdom

My old mate got herself caught in a cattle grid almost a year ago and although her injuries are healing well I am struggling to keep her sound. Would alphabute help to keep her comfortable and sound during the remainder of her recovery?

  • VioVet Staff

This is difficult to say because it will depend on exactly why she is not fully sound already and the nature of the injuries she received. This will do no harm and might well help, but limited exercise, prescription anti-inflammatory medication and other things might perhaps be needed too.

Laminitis

Jenny

Is this product suitable for laminitics? My pony is had arthritis in her hock & is currently on danilon - I would like to get her off this though & onto a natural product that can ease her discomfort.

  • VioVet Staff

Herbal products tend to be less potent than Danilon but safer, especially given long-term. It is difficult to know how well your pony will respond to this product because the response varies between different individuals. The only way to find out is to try it and see. It is potentially suitable for your pony and might well provide a good response, but you will need to try it first. Some people alternate between herbal and NSAID therapy (such as Danilon) and this seems to work well too.
