"My horse was not eating the perogilde that was supplied by the vet it had a bubble gum smell to it. When I found that SmartPak had an alfalfa flavor, I thought I would give it a chance. Sure enough, my horse has been eating her medicine daily over her food and even licks the bottom of her grain bucket!"

"Our 13.2 pony was severly lame and was thought to be insulin resistant. It took a little while to get his levels under control but with pergolide he is sound again."

"I am so excited about this medication because in less than two weeks, our horse Richocet has tremendous improvement and she likes the flavor.
She is 26 years old and has had the cushings for awhile with excesive urination and a winter coat that looked like a wooly bear, then she would shed our to almost bald. Now she is growing a normal winter coat and her stall is alot dryer and her feet are healing up great. She is such a happy girl now and obviously feeling much better! We thank the Lord for our vet and for the great deal we are getting with smartpak for her medicine! And this is so easy to use!

"I have a SaddleBred/Paso Fino mare. Since both breds can have Cushings, I was not surprised to find out she was a candidate for it. Changes in feed were made but it was apparent that her mental state of being overly excited and unable to calm down grew. Once on Pergolide, which is easy to administer every day.. she returned to her normal self. Smart-Pak is the only supplier I will use for Horse Health, whether it is a RX or not They guarantee their purchases and always eager to help."

"I swithed from liquid pergolide to this powdered one and my pony has made dramatic improvements. I did not even think he would make the winter and now he is like a young pony again. He is even out in the green pasture, he has not done this in 15 years."

"We recently began purchasing our Pergolide (a treatment for Cushings Disease) through SmartPak. As always, we couldn't be more pleased with SmartPak's service and attention to detail. Prior to using SmartPak for Pergolide, we were ordering through our vet. We have a wonderful vet, but the medical supply company they use does not think about ease of use or convenience like SmartPak. We were often sent an insufficient dispenser (making it difficult to draw the solution into the syringe) and our order was often processed late, meaning our horse would go without his medication for a few days... When we saw that SmartPak began to carry Pergolide, we immediately asked our vet to arrange to have SmartPak be our supplier. WOW! What a difference! Not only do we NEVER have to worry about our Pergolide being delivered on time, but SmartPak included plenty of syringes, a proper attachment to the bottle to make drawing the medication easy, but they also included lables so that the medication and syringes are clearly labeled for safety. Furthermore, the concentration of Pergolide that SmartPak supplies is higher than that of the medical supply company we had used. That means we only need to dispence 3cc instead of the 15cc does we had previously given. All these "extras" that SmartPak provides did NOT increase the price we pay each month for an already pricey medication. The price is comparable, but the customer service is worlds better. Thank You SmartPak~ you think of EVERYTHING!!!"

"The liquid form of pergolide improves attitude of horse and human through the ease administration ---versus the tablet form. My horse refused to accept the tablet form. I have recommended the liquid form to my equine medical professional for her other clients."

"My 25 year old mare was diagnosed with Cushing's 18 months ago. Since starting a regimen including Pergolide, she has been doing extremely well. Her 'hot flashes' are controlled, and her coat and shed patterns are back to normal. Her overall demeanor is unchanged-she is a wonderful mare. I'd recommend any horseowner faced with a Cushing's diagnosis to talk to their vet about prescribing Pergolide. SmartPak makes the delivery a snap. Their customer service is outstanding."

"I am happy with this product. The apple flavor is fairly tasty, even for our picky eater. The powder is heavy enough that I don't breathe it when I open the package. Since pergolide is linked to heart valve problems in people, I don't want my daughters or myself to breathe it. Our horse is an extremely picky eater who often does not eat his grain. This product is far better than the pergolide we used before we got SmartPaks. I wish SmartPak made a chewable tablet so I would always know if the picky old guy ate his pergolide."

"After switching to Smartpak's pergolide mesylate liquid (from another pharmacy) my horse's health (she has Cushings) improved tremendously. Receiving it monthly is convenient and important as this medication has a short shelf life, and the pricing is very competitive."
