Webinar: Innovations in Equine Asthma, Part II

October 28, 2020

animal 3207081 640

Some of you may have joined the RRP and Boehringer Ingelheim’s Dr. Sarah Reuss back in August to review the basics of equine asthma, which is now the umbrella term for many inflammatory diseases of the lower airway in horses. If you missed it, we’ll do a brief review of the standard treatments out there for equine asthma. Finally, we will debut an innovative new product on the market specifically designed for severe equine asthma. Bring your questions!
Webinar will stream on the RRP’s Facebook page as well as Zoom, and will be available to watch later on Facebook and YouTube.
