Finally—a meaningful new direction in pain management for lameness in horses.

Surpass® Topical Cream's unique liposomal formulation is a novel approach to solving the age-old medical problem of relieving equine pain due to osteoarthritis.

  • Proven to be effective—SURPASS generated significant improvement in lameness scores in a double-blind, placebo-controlled multicentric clinical field study.
  • Safe—Localized application reduces the risk of toxicity associated with the use of systemic NSAIDs, and provides lasting relief.
  • Trusted for quality—Manufactured to exacting standards for diclofenac bound within liposomes, so you can count on consistency in every tube.
  • Convenient—Cream formulation, specifically developed for horses, is easily applied in minutes.
  • Prescription only—Sold exclusively for use by licensed, practicing veterinarians, ensuring appropriate use with your guidance.
 
"I have used SURPASS on several horses with lameness due to degenerative joint disease. I am very satisfied with it. It is easy to apply, and horses tolerate it well."
