Best Answer

Benzathine is often used in penicillin products designed for cattle. While there have

been instances where Penicillin G Benzathine has been used in horses with the idea

that it has longer lasting action (therefore requiring fewer injections) it often has the

side effect of producing deep muscle pain in horses. This side effect may not occur in all individuals but it is something to be aware of if Benzathine containing injections are

in use.

Ok you'll have to do exactly as i say. when your horse does what you want you'll need to give him a treat or if he doesnt like treats give him praise. Say your horse wasnt walking when you say "Walk" ok what to do for that is stand in front of your horse with the halter on and the lead rope in you hand. pull forward and when he steps forward say "Good walk" And do that for anyhting that he is not listening to you.
