Fixine® for Equine: Frequently Asked Questions

What is Fixine®?

Fixine® is an equine digestive probiotic designed to support a healthy gut environment, digestive efficiency and overall wellbeing.

The latest formula combines Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus licheniformis and New Zealand zeolite (Optimate™). The Bacillus strains are naturally spore-forming, helping them remain stable through the digestive process before becoming active in the gut.

Will my horse eat Fixine®?

Most horses readily accept Fixine®. It is a granular product to make it simpler to mix into your horse's normal dry feed.

If your horse is particularly fussy, start by introducing a small amount and gradually increase over one week to tend days to the recommended daily rate.

How do I feed Fixine®?

Simply mix Fixine® into your horse's normal dry feed (although Fixine works in wet feed also if you prefer).

The recommended daily rate is:

• Horses & ponies: 15–20g per 100kg bodyweight
• 500kg horse: approximately 75–100g per day
• Foals: 30g per foal per day
• During digestive stress: feed at double the normal rate.

Always follow the directions on the product packaging.

How long does Fixine® take to work?

Every horse is different, so there isn't a single timeframe in which you should expect to see a change. However, a number of customers report seeing visible improvements in coat and temperament after two to three weeks of using Fixine®.

Fixine® is designed primarily as ongoing digestive and gut-health support, rather than a treatment intended to produce an immediate response. Some owners notice changes in appetite, condition, manure consistency or general wellbeing relatively quickly, while for others the benefits may become apparent over several weeks of consistent use.

For horses experiencing digestive stress, the manufacturer recommends feeding at double the normal rate.

Can I use Fixine® every day?

Yes. Fixine® is designed for regular daily use and can form part of your horse's ongoing feeding program. The current formula has a 12-month shelf life from date of manufacture.

Can I give Fixine® with other supplements?

Fixine® can generally be incorporated into a horse's existing feeding program. However, because every horse's diet and supplement combination is different, we recommend checking the ingredients and total nutrient intake when using multiple supplements.

If you're unsure whether Fixine® is appropriate alongside another specific supplement, ask your veterinarian or equine nutritionist.

Can I use Fixine® while my horse is taking ulcer medication or other veterinary medication?

Fixine® is a nutritional probiotic supplement, but we don't recommend making a blanket statement that it is compatible with every medication.

If your horse is currently receiving ulcer medication, antibiotics or other veterinary treatment, speak with your veterinarian about the complete feeding and treatment program before introducing or changing supplements.

Importantly, Fixine® should not be considered a treatment for gastric ulcers or other veterinary conditions.

Is Fixine® safe for foals?

Yes. Fixine® is suitable for foals, with a recommended feeding rate of 30g per foal per day.

For young, unwell or particularly vulnerable foals, we recommend discussing supplementation with your veterinarian.

Is Fixine® suitable for competition horses?

Yes. Given the additional stress of completion, you may wish to provide your horse with the stress dose levels, which is double the normal rate (ie, 30 to 40 gr per 100kg body weight).

Fixine is also competition/swab safe as it is a toxin binder plus bacteria so there is no ingredient on the band substance list 

However, competition regulations place responsibility on the person responsible for the horse. The FEI advises competitors to check all supplement ingredients against the current Equine Prohibited Substances List and warns that supplements can potentially be contaminated.

Is Fixine® natural?

Fixine® contains Bacillus subtilis, Bacillus licheniformis and New Zealand zeolite (Optimate™). The Bacillus strains are naturally occurring, spore-forming probiotic bacteria.

What makes the new Fixine® formula different?

The latest formula contains advanced probiotic strains of Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus licheniformis from Novonesis, alongside New Zealand zeolite in the form of Optimate™.

Because these Bacillus strains are spore-forming, they are particularly stable during feed processing and passage through the upper digestive tract. They can then germinate and become metabolically active in the hindgut.

Where is Fixine® made?

Fixine® is made in New Zealand by Blue Pacific Minerals NZ.The product is manufactured using New Zealand zeolite (Optimate™) and the probiotic ingredients specified in the current formulation.

Where does my Fixine® order ship from?

Australian customers purchase Fixine® through CAN Animal Care Pty Ltd or supporting retailers and orders are shipped within Australia.  CAN Animal Care is an Australian company and the exclusive distributor of Blue Pacific Minerals NZ equine products in Australia

How should I store Fixine®?

Keep the bag sealed when not in use and store it in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. The current product has a 12-month shelf life from the date of manufacture.

What sizes does Fixine® come in?

Fixine® is available in:

5kg | 10kg | 20kg

Can Fixine® help with gastric ulcers?

Fixine® is designed to support a healthy digestive environment and beneficial gut bacteria. It is not an ulcer medication and should not be used as a substitute for veterinary diagnosis or treatment of gastric ulcers.

Maintaining a healthy gut environment may be an important part of an overall feeding and management program, particularly for horses experiencing dietary, training or other forms of stress.

What if my horse is experiencing digestive problems?

Fixine® can provide nutritional support during periods of digestive or dietary stress. Blue Pacific Minerals specifically recommends feeding at double the normal rate when a horse is showing signs of digestive stress.

However, persistent diarrhoea, colic, weight loss, poor appetite or other significant changes in your horse's health should always be discussed with your veterinarian.

What are the shipping charges if I purchase Fixine online?

CAN Animal Care charge a shipping rate based on the size of the product, and this is provided as a flat rate for that product regardless of where you are in Australia. These rates are as follows:

5kg: $15

10kg: $20

20kg: $25

CAN Animal Care covers the additional amount of freight costs charged by our freight providers, given freight costs to rural areas are substantially higher than our charges.
