Active Ingredients
The paste contains essential vitamins and amino acids to support a calm disposition:
- L-Tryptophan: An amino acid converted to serotonin, often referred to as the “feel-good” hormone that reduces anxiety and stress.
- N-Acetyl Taurinate Magnesium: Plays an important role in reducing nerve excitability and muscle spasms.
- Pyridoxine HCl (Vitamin B6): An essential co-factor for the conversion of L-Tryptophan into serotonin.

- Supplementation can be repeated if the desired effect is not achieved.
- For a 500kg horse, a single 60ml syringe contains approximately three doses.
