The Dosage guide has been developed through the work of Ted Hooper, tried and sucessfully proven over hundreds of horses in New Zealand, Australia, The UK, and USA.

 

GENEREAL NOTES:

Keep the horse idle and warm for the whole course until the discharge has stopped for at least three or more days and then very light exercise may be started.

 

Care must be taken to prevent chilling the horse or stressing it again.

 

It is preferred to leave the horse idle the whole time as these horses originally can develop pneumonia and extreme care is essential at all times.

 

An odd horse has been known to require up to three litres of ITZ MAGIC to remove all the infection.

 

For a horse that is too sick to feed, dose it with 60mls (using a small 20ml syringe) over the back of the tongue once daily until you are sure it will eat its feed.

 

60mls added to a small feed is just as successful as dosing, provided the horse eats the whole feed.

 

Infection shows up in the nostrils similar to 'Herpes I'.

 

 

 

 

 

IMPORTANT POINTS TO FOLLOW:

 

1. Keep medication in a warm place (particularly in winter) and shake well before using. If crystals appear, immerse container in very hot water for five to ten minutes and shake up and they will dissolve again.

 

2. Feed 60 mls once daily. Do Not feed 30 mls night and morning.

(Recommended 10-15 mls over tongue)

 

* for yearlings - Total recommended usage 1 litre yearlings to 2yr olds,

** 2 litres 3yr olds and up.

 

3. Keep horse warm at all times and do not stress.

 

4. Additives are not required during treatment as the horse will start to bloom on the medication. Start iron and supplements when the horse is in work again. The haemoglobin will rise again as the poisons are eliminated from the horse's body and the white cell readings will settle back to normal levels again.

 

A horse's haemoglobin reading is subject to the amount of poison in its body and the work load it has to handle. Remove the poison with ITZ MAGIC, and the reading increases and then subsequent iron injections or oral iron will lift the level to a top level which increases the horse's performance.

 

5. Horse's with 'Herpes I' are much easier to treat, and as, carried out over time such can be walked right through the treatment, but always do not over stress or chill the animal.

 

For best results leave horse idle fo the first 1-2 weeks of treatment.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

6. Horses coming down with Herpes IV can develop pneumonia in the early stages with above normal temperatures, but treatment with ITZ MAGIC will slowly reduce temperature daily back to normal.

 

Antibiotics have no effect on viruses.

 

7. Withholding time for caffeine: At least 10 - 14 days. Pre swab test prior to racing for full clearance as presence can vary based on breed and horse.

 

8. There are many side effects of virus infection in horses but most of these disappear on treatment with ITZ MAGIC. Remove the cause and the problem disappears.
