Overview

Why We Love This

Use Equiderma Zinc Oxide Paste as a first aid in the treatment of pastern dermatitis, commonly known as scratches, greasy heel, dew poisoning, or mud fever, and skin problems associated with sunburn.

One of the problems we face when we are dealing with scratches is how to keep the area dry and keep the product on during the healing process. Equiderma Zinc Oxide Paste creates a water-resistant barrier and 100% sun blocking capabilities. After application it stays put and creates a healthy environment so healing can take place. Equiderma Zinc Oxide Paste has ingredients that will knock out the offending organisms, provides 100% sunblock, and creates a water barrier on the applied area.

Most of us do not want to keep our horses stalled during treatment or stalled during the day to prevent sunburn. This product will provide 100% sunblock and will not come off with normal sweating or rain fall. Perfect for horses with white faces or pink skin who are prone to sunburn.

Equiderma Zinc Paste is rated 3.7 out of 5 by 42.

Rated 5 out of 5 by SmartPaker Carly from Go-to skin support From sunburns to scratches, this zinc oxide paste is something I never let get completely empty in my tack box. I have most recently started using this on a horse with scratches that other topicals didn't seem to have any effect on despite our best efforts. Within a week of using this product the scratches were dried up and starting to heal. Despite the rainy weather, the paste stayed on during turnout and I haven't had an issue with it coming off on sweaty horses either. I will also put this product on any skin irritations from bug bites and love that it also keeps the bugs away. I have also used this on itchy mane and tails to help prevent rubbing with great success. While I always spot-test any topical I put on my horses, I have found this paste to work even for those with sensitive skin that can't typically handle most topical products. For application I go by the directions on the label, applying a thin layer daily. The paste is thick, but I find that easier to apply than the more liquid topical product and it stays exactly where it is applied.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Singer from Difficult to spread I think the product probably would work better in warmer temperatures, though we tried warming it before use. It was difficult to spread and stay on after following the directions carefully. I think a spray would have worked better.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Kate from Thicker than expected... I expected the paste to be a softer consistency than it is, but I think I can still use it. I borrowed some from a friend and hers was softer and easier to spread on my horse than this is. I used it on my mare when she got itchy bug bites during the summer, so maybe when the weather warms up, this will be softer too.

Rated 5 out of 5 by SmartPaker Linda from Best Sun Protection! My horse, Lucky is a bald face blue-eyed QH Paint. He is very susceptible to sunburn on his nose. He does wear a long-nosed fly mask most of the year. It is not just the summer sun that causes issues but also the reflection of the snow in the wintertime. Even with the fly mask, Lucky often gets a sunburned nose. I use this on his pink nose. It soothes immediately and heals quickly. I need to apply it only a couple of times a week. It seems to have some lasting protection and does not need to be applied daily. I love this sunscreen. It smells wonderful and also has been healing my horse's sunburn for years. I also use it to help heal scratches and mud fever in the wet seasons of New England. It keeps bugs from getting into the scabs. I do apply it daily for any scurfy skin issues., It helps heal them up pretty quickly. Lucky, recently, had a sore on his heel from the mud. Nothing seemed to work. The Vet made a concoction of Furacin, Destine, and Dex. I could tell it was very irritated. After using the Vet concoction her a few days, it was still looking inflamed. Per my Barn Manager's suggestion, I decided to try the Equiderma Zinc Paste. After one application I noticed a significant difference 3 days later with less swelling and healing of the area. By the third application, the area was almost clear. Tips for application: remove as many scabs as possible with warm soaks, dry thoroughly, then apply a generous layer of Equiderma and allow it to mostly dry if going back to turnout. It provides A long-lasting, antibacterial, antifungal, water-resistant barrier.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Rvbeck82 from Crumbly and does not stick to the horse easily. I bought this upon recommendation from a friend. I was SEVERELY disappointed. My intent was to use this to protect (and heal) my horse's nose (and back of feet) from sunburn, but I don't see how that's going to work when it's an absolute nightmare trying to get this to go where I want it and stick there. Most of the product wound up on the ground or on me and my clothes. It was such a mess. It MAY work fine IF you can get it on the horse, but it's such a struggle that I've decided to go a different route.

Rated 2 out of 5 by Cali from Bad Batch I got two different orders of the zinc oxide paste, and both were hard and clay-like. Not soft or spreadable.

Rated 3 out of 5 by Missy from Crumbly Product is crumbly and most of it falls on the ground instead of staying on the legs. Seems to work well when I can get enough of the product to adhere to the wounds.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Minthill from Disappointing My horse had a big reaction to this paste. I heard great things about the product but did not happen. The area showed No improvement and in fact got worse as the pastern swelled up. Area got red and very sensitive. I am disappointed in this product and would never use again. I went back to my tried and true recipe of Desitin and Entederm (a script).

Rated 5 out of 5 by Faith 615 from Game Changer I bought this in the summer as my horse is super prone to scratches and this really helped. Although the one that I got from Smartpak was very hard almost like chalk. Usually, the consistency is a bit creamer which makes it earlier to put on. I don't know if it was just the bottle that I got or what but I still used it. I find that applying this,keeping his legs dry, and clipping them really helped!

Rated 5 out of 5 by BWSWarmbloods from This product is fantastic! We had a stubborn fungal infection on a young mare's 4 white stockings that we just couldn't clear using the usual over-the-counter remedies as well as vet-blended remedies. I tried the Equiderma Lotion and saw an immediate improvement, so I purchased the zinc oxide paste and the shampoo. Between the three products, it is almost completely healed and I expect it to be gone within another couple of weeks! I now keep two of each of these products on my shelf at all times to make sure I never run out.
