Veterinarians may recommend Butequine (Phenylbutazone) Paste for Horses. This medicated paste is administered orally and is designed to alleviate pain and inflammation associated with the musculoskeletal system. It can also help reduce fevers. Butequine paste is packaged in an easy-to-use, pre-filled syringe with adjusting dosing ring and number markings. FDA approved.How it Works

Butequine paste is a synthetic, non-hormonal anti-inflammatory, antipyretic compound useful in the management of inflammatory conditions. The apparent analgesic effect is probably related mainly to the compound's anti-inflammatory properties.

Special Precautions

Keep away from children and animals. Stop medication at the first sign of gastrointestinal upset, jaundice, or blood dyscrasia. Authenticated cases of agranulocytosis associated with the drug have occurred in man; fatal reactions, although rare, have been reported in dogs after long-term therapy. To guard against the possibility, conduct routine blood counts at weekly intervals during the early phase of therapy and at intervals of two weeks thereafter. Any significant fall in the total white blood cell count, relative decrease in granulocytes, or black or tarry stools should be regarded as a signal for immediate cessation of therapy and institution of appropriate counter-measures. In the treatment of inflammatory conditions associated with infections, specific anti-infective therapy is required. Do not use in horses intended for human consumption.
