- Wonderful product! Review by Kim
Your Rating Product Cosequin Equine Optimized with MSM 1400 gram This has made such a tremendous difference in my horse. He was initially so stiff in his hips that it was difficult for him to withstand any kind of riding. Since using Cosequin he easily takes a saddle and actually gets excited to get tacked up!! He is finally back to his old self again!!! (Posted on 4/9/13)

Your Rating Product Cosequin Equine Optimized with MSM 1400 gram We've been using Cosequin with MSM for several years now, as a supplement for our competition horses as they age, and even in retirement. It helps them avoid stiffness and keeps them going. (Posted on 12/8/12)
