Aptima Gastric, 750 g

What is Aptima Gastric 750 g?

Aptima Gastric 750 g is an apple-flavoured pellet-based feed supplement from VetNova. It is formulated to support the horse’s digestive wellbeing, the integrity of the gastric mucosa and a less acidic stomach environment.

What is this digestive support for horses used for?

The combination of minerals, soluble fibre and other components acts on various aspects of digestive comfort. Magnesium oxide provides an alkalising effect. Lithothamnium releases calcium and magnesium gradually, whilst pectin forms a viscous matrix on the mucosa.

It can be used during periods of increased stress, changes in diet, transport, training or situations that disrupt the digestive balance. It is also suitable for horses with gastric sensitivity.
