Rated 3 out of 5 by from Horse didn't do well After using this for a few months I decided to go back to Cetyl-M. It seemed that my horse's mobility declined after I amde the switch. No back on Cetyl-M and I guess I'll know in another month or two if I amde the right decision.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Really helped My mothers horse has pretty bad arthritis so we put him on these (reccomended by our farrier) and it really does help him! He has a lot more get up and go on these supplements. The horse eats them like candy!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Product that Works! This product is great. I have 6 horses in my barn on it and they are all doing great! The older horses feel better, the competition horses dont come out of their stalls stiff and the results are very noticeable. I would highly recommend it to anyone. I have all ages, breeds and picky eaters on this. They even eat it without grain. The price is great too considering the amount of HA in the product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good Results Started using this for my daughter's 15yr old reining horse. We had good results almost immediately. Her stiffness when begining her workout is undetectable after 2 months.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best joint supplement in my opinion Supplements can be very expensive. I wanted something comprehensive without breaking the bank. This has helped my 20+ warmblood stay comfortable jumping.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A good supplement I have fed 4 full buckets of this to my Mini who is foundered on all 4 feet. She has a correct trim, sole support, and a proper low sugar diet, she's in good weight, and lives on soft, supportive footing, but she is still extremely lame on all 4 feet and lays down most of the time. I started her on this as a last ditch effort to keep from putting her down. With this supplement, she could get by with about 1 gram of bute per day, and while still sore, she would walk around outside with the others, and even trot a few steps on good days. I ran out and did not buy any more because I didn't realize it was working that much. Within about a week, she had hot, pounding pulses in all four feet, and was again miserably lame and laying down all the time. She was back up to 2 grams of bute and still wouldn't move much. I put her on Rapid Flex fast acting joint supplement - double dose - because it has devil's claw and yucca in it. That seems to help her a lot also. So I don't think it has to be THIS joint supplement, but she just needs something. I would not hesitate to buy this again, and would if it had Yucca and Devil's Claw for added pain relief. My hope is to stop the bute completely and I couldn't do that with this supplement. I hope I can with the other supplement. Overall this is a GREAT product and did improve my foundered Mini significantly!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Absorbine Flex+Max I have an 8 year old Mustang that has had alot of issues getting a correct barefoot trim. He has developed arthritis in one knee. I have a 19 year old quarter horse mare with navicular. I started feeding the Mustang one month ago and have noticed improvement in his stride and his turning. I decided to try the mare on Absorbine Flex also. It has been two weeks now and I am noticing marked improvement.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good Product This product has really been good for my senior horse. Have used a number of other products for joints and this one is doing the job! It is also easy to use and no issue with being consumed as it is pelleted and goes in with the feed - with no residue at all.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Product One of the best, not only dose it really work well but my horses love eating it also! Its almost like a treat with there grain. And for the monthly Smartpak price i really couldnt get anything better!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Joint Supplement! My mare is only 13 y/o, but I decided it couldn't hurt to put her on a joint supplement. I chose this one base on the ingredents. And I must say, I feel the improvement. She feels great! I am truley surprised at how much it has helped her. It's worth the money.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good First Time The first pack I got was amazing. It smelled delicious and my horse loved it. The second I got wasn't so great. It had this really weird smell. Not sure why. My horse still ate it, it just left me a little wary. Not entirely sure how it's doing for him with soreness. We discovered that he has a bone chip which is causing the soreness in the front end. The supplement seems to help keep the rest of his legs compensate for it, but it's still a crazy mess.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great suppliment We use to use the Cosequin ASU which I love but is SO expensive! This supplement seems to provide the same results at a fraction of the cost. All my competition horses are on it. My 14 year old thoroughbred Rhett has been competing in the 3'3" Performance Working Hunter division and is on this supplement. He is moving and jumping great since starting it. He has been on it for about a year and half now and we were able to go over a year before having to do hock injections thanks to this supplement.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great ingredients for the price I was using a more expensive product and getting great results, but I have 3 horese on joint supplements and had to reduce cost. I found this product and switched one horse at a time. Still getting great results at half the cost. Results I value are less tripping on the trail, less joint stiffness, better fluid movement, hind legs reaching under and extending, loser hock movement and willingness to jump.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love this Product I have my 25 year old QH horse on this product and I love it. He has been on quite a few different joint support supplements over the past few years, but he will continue to be on this forever unless there is a huge price increase :) Definitely the most bang for your buck with this product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Absorbine Flex+Max We had have 2 horses over 20 YO and were on another brand of joint supplement. It just was not working anymore and we switched to this and they have a new lease on life! Smart pack matches any price so it is a good deal!

Rated 3 out of 5 by from works like others Have tried various joint supplements. This one works as good as the others but did not see any remarkable changes.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Time Saver The Absorbine Flex-Max is so convenient, accurately measured and saves preparation time in the Smart Paks. Having all my Smart Paks in the holding container takes up less space.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love The Pellets This is a great supplement - Using it now to replace my Flex + - the pellets are so much easier to feed! Love it!
Date published: 2012-03-15
Rated 3 out of 5 by from Ok Good levels of everything except MSM.. I had to switch my horse off of this supplement after a few months when he continued to be stiff.
Date published: 2012-03-04
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Works great! This is one of my favorite feed through joint supplements. It has the recommended amount of just about everything and I've never had a problem getting a horse to eat it. I originally started using it on a horse that was making a clicking noise in his back legs and after a few months of this supplement the noise went away.
Date published: 2012-02-27
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Compare products I highly recommend you compare the ingredients and percentages of all the products. Absorbine Flex + max has the highest amount of hydraulic acid and other important ingredients. I just got a OTTB that has arthritis in his front ankle and it was very swollen with heat. I started to feed this product a week after getting him and two weeks later the swelling started to go down and he was more sound, after 4 weeks, there is NO swelling and he is sound. No bute was given. He will continue to get Absorbine Flex + max.
Date published: 2012-02-02
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Product I bought this product prior to having my mustang x-rayed & diagnosed w/ringbone, at which time I contacted Smartpak for their expertise on which product I should use. Since I already had Absorbine Flex + Max, I fed it to my endurance horse who is 12. After 2 months he is acting like a 4 y/o. That's not to say Doimas has ever matured. He is a wild child. But this product definately has made him feel on top of the world & I will continue giving it to him.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good Results at a Great Price I started my 12 yr. old QH mare on Flex-Max as she recuperated from a cut tendon injury. After about three weeks I saw a dramatic difference in her soundness and the way she used the injured leg. I intend to keep her on Flex-Max and would recommend this supplement to anyone who is rehabbing an injured horse.
Date published: 2012-01-17
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lots of good stuff in a pellet Smells a bit funny, but the horses eat it right up. Given all of the ingredients, it is a very good value. As in any quality joint product, it does its job well.
Date published: 2012-01-06
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome Product I purchased this product because I had been using Cosequin ASU and wanted something with HA for my injured gelding coming back into work. I switched to this basically to see if my horse would look any different with the addition of more of all the main ingredients from the Cosequin (glucosamine, chondroitin) and some HA. My horse looks and feels so much better! He tracks up and hasn't seemed sore at all. He loves these tasty pellets, which blend in with his grain almost perfectly so he can't sort any out like he used to with his Cosequin. Overall, I am very pleased with the results so far, but if I change my mind I will go back to Cosequin because it also worked, but was a little too pricey for what you get (in my opinion).

Rated 2 out of 5 by from No change I purchased this supplement to aid in my thoroughbred's moderately jumping joints, but unfortunately I did not notice any difference in my horse within the month. He was happy to eat it though!
Date published: 2011-12-15
Rated 5 out of 5 by from great joint supplement Tried others, but always come back to flex+max. I notice a difference when my horses are on it, and can't beat the price. My picky eater eats it, too. I always buy it from smartpak, besides the freshness you get from the sealed paks, their customer serivce is out of this world!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good Have only had my 24 year old on it for 1 1/2 months, but so far it seens to work well for him.
Date published: 2011-10-20
Rated 5 out of 5 by from I chose this supplement mostly as a preventative for my 11 yo Appendix in moderate work. However, after using it for a couple of months, I've seen a noticeable improvement in him. He seems more comfortable, and his stride as improved greatly- he actually tracks up! He loves the taste, too.
