PERFORMANCE ENHANCERS
CLOVERDALE PHARMASAVE carries both natural and chemical performance enhancers for horses. In fact, we have been specializing in professional veterinary supplies for the past 50 years, so we dare say we were one of the pioneers. With experienced registered pharmacists and certified natural products advisors on staff, we carry many items that are not available from feed stores, tack stores, the average drug store, and on-line stores. We offer professional advice on selection, comparison, and proper usage of products. Our online store is still under construction so we have not yet listed all the items we carry. If you are interested in any of the products and need more information, please either phone 604-576-2888 or e-mail us at info [at] CloverdalePharmasave.com and we will do our best to help you find the right product. For complex problems, we offer "Live Well Consultations" in which we study your case and provide information on relevant products. Please refer to "Live Well Consultations" for detailed fee schedule and other parameters.

What is a "Performance Enhancer"?
Horses can perform only if they enjoy good health and wellness. A good supplement program consists of
(A) a general daily vitamin/mineral/electrolyte, and
(B) specific therapeutic supplements that address the particular horse's short comings.
Hence, a "performance enhancer" can be anything that improves a horse's health and thence its performance.
A few words on drug testing:
The action of administering anything to a horse in order to affect the horse's performance prior to an event is regarded as illegal by most racing commissions.
However, if you still want to do that without being tested positive, the preferred medications/supplements to use would be homeopathic medicines and certain natural products. Homeopathic medications had been so diluted that a positive testing is extremely unlikely. Many herbs may test positive as herbs contain chemical active ingredients that may test positive, such as white willow bark and devils' claw.
