We Now Carry Alpha2EQ®—an Orthobiologic Therapy for Arthritic Joints.
Alpha2EQ® is a new treatment for debilitating joint pain, inflammation, and osteoarthritis common to horses. Alpha2EQ is an orthobiologic device that isolates and concentrates the equine Alpha-2 Macroglobulin (α2M) and uses biological substances to help musculoskeletal injuries heal quicker. The α2M molecule has proven success in decreasing inflammation, relieving pain, and modulating cartilage degeneration that is the result of osteoarthritis.
Alpha2EQ – Preserve Your Horses Joints!
Alpha2EQ is ideal for the performance horse, whose joints you want to preserve for as long as possible, and for the older or horse with Cushing’s or IR when you need to avoid steroids. Alpha2EQ works by intensifying the all-natural healing proteins of the horse’s own blood.
Alpha2EQ is proven to protect cartilage from degeneration, decrease inflammation, relieving pain, and help musculoskeletal injuries heal quicker.
Treat Multiple Joints at Once Safely
This system produces enough A2M to treat multiple joints safely at one time. Unlike Pro-Stride, IRAP, and PRP, there is enough A2M to treat Hocks, Stifles, and Coffin joints all at the same time. Each kit should produce enough to treat 3-4 sets of joints. When there is product left over, it is frozen for up to a year to use later when needed.
Safe and Effective
In a recent study, Alpha2EQ was found to be safe after 50 horses across five equine hospitals received joint injections for a variety of orthopedic conditions. With Alpha2EQ, veterinarians can process and treat in just 1-2 hours with an uncomplicated, minimally invasive procedure.
The product utilizes the patented AlphaActive process. AlphaActive is a highly improved process leveraging PRP methodology derivative of Platelet Poor Plasma (PPP) that concentrates plasma proteins from the equine patient’s own blood. The patented, proprietary filtration process removes the harmful proteins that can remain in other autologous plasma products to allow for a pure α2M product with no inflammatory cytokines.
The AlphaActive process isolates the α2M molecule, which is a powerful inhibitor of cartilage destructive factors and slows the progression of joint inflammation by preventing cartilage breakdown and loss. Alpha2EQ is drug free and has no competition restrictions. It has no banned substances. Always follow your organization’s rules for general joint injections. You can learn more at ALPHA2EQ.com
