Treatment

I must say that I have had quite a lot of success treating EMS horses with cyproheptadine, although (as my cite points out) dietary restriction etc may prove a confounding factor. However, some of the results have been so dramatic that I intend to continue using it until someone can prove that it doesn't work! Dlh-stablelights 21:56, 8 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
