Many horses have gastric (stomach) ulcers. Treatment involves medication with one of several drugs that alters the acidity of the stomach to allow for healing such as ranitidine, cimetidine or omeprazole. Along with medical treatment, the horse's activity level should be reduced, free choice forage should be made available and grains should be removed from the diet (grains, not specifically concentrate feed).
