Fluidity™, created by Oxy-Gen®, is the only oral buffered hyaluronic acid (HA) product available to help lubricate and cushion your horse’s joints. Although HA is commonly administered by injection, studies have proven that orally administered HA is able to survive the digestive process and be absorbed into the blood stream. Buffered oral HA is effective in repairing joint damage and reducing the inflammation that is commonly caused by trauma or overuse.

Buffered HA is most beneficial to horses that experience gastrointestinal issues as a result of the overuse of oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) that are commonly prescribed for the treatment and maintenance of osteoarthritis and degenerative joint disease. Non-buffered oral HA is acidic and can be detrimental to the gastric health of your horse, and long term use of non-buffered oral joint treatments should be avoided.
