Respiratory Supplements for Horses – Herbs & Vitamins for Clear Bronchi
Are you looking for respiratory supplements for your horsethat really work? Then you've come to the right place. Whether your horse struggles with pollen in the summer, reacts sensitively to dust in hay during winter, or you simply want to boost its immune system during coat change – here you'll find carefully selected products with herbs, vitamins, and trace elements that support your horse from within.
When is it worth using respiratory supplements for horses?
Coughing when warming up, snotty nostrils, a sensitive nose in spring – many riders are familiar with these. The respiratory system of a horse is a delicate one. Dust from hay, pollen in the pasture, or cold air in winter can quickly become a burden. Supplements with cough herbslike thyme, plantain, marshmallow, and licorice root help to soothe the mucous membranes and keep the bronchi clear.
The immune system also needs a boost now and then. During coat change, for example, when your horse puts a lot of energy into its new coat. This is where vital substances like Vitamin E, zinc, and selenium come into play – they strengthen the immune system and help your horse get through the transition period fit and healthy.

Frequently asked questions about respiratory supplements for horses
Which supplement helps my horse with coughing?
For acute or chronic coughing, herbal blends with thyme, plantain, licorice root, and anise have proven effective. They loosen mucus and soothe irritated airways. For prolonged coughing, you should also consult a veterinarian.
How long should I feed cough herbs?
Most herbal treatments run for four to six weeks. For horses with chronic respiratory sensitivity, longer administration may be useful – ideally in consultation with a veterinarian.
What helps my horse during coat change?
During coat change, your horse needs additional zinc, biotin, selenium, and vitamin E. These vital substances support skin, coat, and simultaneously the immune system. Start feeding about two weeks before the coat change.
Do herbs really help with allergies in horses?
Herbs do not replace veterinary treatment but can be supportive. Black cumin, nettle, and rosehip are often used for pollen-related complaints and can alleviate symptoms.
Are the products ADMR compliant?
Many of our respiratory supplements are suitable for competition. Look for the corresponding note in the product description or ask us in the chat – we'll tell you what you can feed without hesitation during competition.
