Do not give it to ruminants by mouth; it screws up their symbiotic digestive

Got to disagree with that one. A group of us successfully treated our horses
for EPM with CS, orally -- some of us treating for three years or more. None
of these horses demonstrated digestive problems as a result. All of them
recovered from EPM. If digestive problems are a concern, simply put the horse
on
a probiotic. The story about CS affecting septic arthritis in the knee joint
is amazing. One that I'll tuck in the corner of my mind for future
reference. MA
