I am writing to provide feedback on your product, which has been very effective for my horse over the past year. While I am pleased with the results and have even been able to reduce the feeding amount, I have two primary concerns.
First, the current cost of the product is becoming difficult for me to afford. Second, I believe there is significant room for improvement regarding your packaging. The heavy, single-use plastic containers are not environmentally friendly; I suggest switching to a more sustainable option, such as heavy waxed paper.
I would have rated your product five stars, but I believe the pricing and environmental impact of the packaging need to be addressed.
I started using Protek GI after an equine nutritionist recommended it to me for helping with going off of using omeprazole (compounded) and sucralfate to treat my gelding's ulcers. He is continuing to feel and look great, we've gone to shows and clinics and he is happy to work. I plan on continuing to use it through the show season.
As of our last scope my horse’s ulcers were gone! We’ve had so much trouble, without more scopes I don’t know if they’ll stay gone— I do wish the packaging was friendlier. The buckets seem wasteful and they’re very hard to open. Thanks!
I can only give 4 stars at this time due only to the fact that my horse has not been on it for long.
He is a 5yo OTTB with 19 races on his record. He was scoped one month ago and found to have grade 4 squamous ulcers, not surprising! He has been on gastrogard and sucralfate for 30 days. I started him on Protek GI 2 weeks ago. I was pleased that it only took him a day and a half to accept the full recommended dose in his feed. He had a second scope this week to check the healing process and while the ulcers are much improved the vet wants him to do another month of treatment. I will continue to use the Protek GI along with the meds in hopes for complete healing to be seen at the next scope mid June. Happy to update at that time as he will have been on the recommended 6 weeks of Protek GI.
I would also like to add that customer service was very prompt and most helpful with all my questions.
I chose Protek GI because the reviews were great concerning gut health. My mate has a history of ulcers and when she had a recent, not feeling so good, I decided to give Protek GI a try. And…the reviews were positive about the horses l liking it. Well, all is well, Skittles loves it and seems to be feeling great!

Excellent customer service experience
I've only just started tapering Larry onto the Protek GI so I can't speak to the product itself as of yet but the customer service was amazing. I had many questions and they were extremely responsive and informative with each of my emailed questions. We haven't worked up to a full dose yet but so far my picky eater has been eating the product without issue. Hopeful for great results for my ulcer prone guy!

She actually eats it!
My horse is very picky but soaked with her grain and a little water and she licks her tub clean. She's been on it for about 2 weeks and so far I've noticed less fussing on the crossties, less yawning and much more comfortable under saddle.
