Product of the Week - Corta-Flx Rx Joint Solution




Corta-Flx Rx Joint solution is my favorite joint formula and all my horses are on it. The Rx formula is available without a prescription and it twice the strength of original Corta-Flx. Corta-Flx is different from other joint formulas in that they break down the glucosamine and chrodrotin into their metabolites this allows for better absorbtion by the horse. The formula comes in both a liquid and pellet. The liquid is far more cost effect although in some situations can be harder to feed ie a boarding stable that requires supplements to be baggied. The liquid is highly palatable and Corta-Flx has studies to show it increases appetite. Speaking of studies Corts-Flx is the only joint formula to have done a university, double-blind test of their formula. The test was done at Michigan State University and involved putting the horses on a treadmill, feeding them the corta-flx or a placebo and then putting the back on the treadmill. All the Corta-Flx horses had increased stride length and consistancy. If you want to read the study here is the link http://www.jointsupplementresearch.com/ Some other joint formulas have done studies but Corta-Flx is the other objectivly measured one. Which is why I like it so much. For cost Corta-Flx Rx Liquid runs $49.99 for a 60 day supply that makes it $0.83 per day which actually makes it one of the cheapest joint supplements per day to feed. All in all it is a great supplement and while the original formula is always a best performer in the Horse Journal Trials the Rx formula gives you twice as much for about the same cost.
