A study from Poland suggests that a horse’s diet can affect how quickly he absorbs the medications he receives.
Key takeaways:
- The researchers speculate that diet, rather than season of year, accounts for the variability in absorption
- The slower absorption rate had no effect on ivermectin’s efficacy
- The findings raise questions about how diet may affect the absorption of other medications
