Respiratory problems in horses are one of the most challenging and frustrating diagnoses for any owner.
Especially when, despite numerous treatments — from antibiotics and steroids to inhalations — the horse’s condition still leaves much to be desired.
This was the battle for Narwik Aurum, a 13-year-old Polish Konik, who not only struggled with chronic coughing but also with laminitis and Cushing’s disease.
Narwik's owner, @julia_duchlinska, tried everything to improve his quality of life. Unfortunately, each therapy brought only short-term or minimal improvement.
Only when she turned to Hempqualizer+ supplementation did a breakthrough occur — one she hadn’t dared to expect.
In today’s case study, the owner shares Narwik’s story, showing how natural support can become an effective tool in fighting RAO and chronic cough in horses.
NARWIK AURUM, 13 years old, gelding, Polish Konik
Narwik is a very delicate horse, prone to illness.
A chronic laminitis sufferer, with Cushing’s disease. Since October last year, he had been struggling with an increasingly severe cough.
Initially diagnosed with pneumonia, he went through several rounds of broad-spectrum antibiotics and was supported with supplements.
The cough persisted and eventually developed into shallow breathing and dyspnea.
A different vet diagnosed RAO. We started steroid therapy — which helped with breathing, but only temporarily. The cough remained.
Narwik underwent two weeks of inhalations with a mucolytic agent containing ectoine. The coughing weakened, but not enough.
Then I saw a post about Hempqualizer+ on Instagram and thought:
"Why not give it a try?"
THE RESULTS OF HEMPQUALIZER+ SUPPLEMENTATION:
I am shocked!
After just under two weeks of daily 2 ml doses, Narwik stopped coughing entirely.
He feels well and breathes beautifully.
