DMSO, do people still use it?
Mar 07, 2009 by Real H | Posted in Horses
Ok- first off, what the heck do people use DMSO for? I know it can carry things through the skin (so maybe it's a way to get the medication into the bloodstream) and it can be used as a muscle relaxant. Secondly, do people even still use it? Is it dangerous? I ask thing because I found some in a bit of yard sale stuff I bought and am curious about it. I wouldn't use it on my horses, of course, but I was just wondering.
DMSO= dimethyl sulfoxide
It's also an anti-inflammatory medicine. I'm currently using it on my mare's blood clots, and people use it for swelling of other kinds.
It's not typically dangerous, although I have heard of some guy dying from it. He was working around pesticides, he put DMSO on himself for some reason, and it carried the pesticides right into his bloodstream and killed him.
I hate the stuff. It makes my horse's breath stink. But it has been helping her a LOT, and that's obviously more important.

yes people still use it. you use it in the way you mentioned... you can put it in a poultice to make the medicine penetrate the skin. you can also use it to sweat legs and reduce swelling (like in the case of a tendon bow). it can be dangerous if in the wrong hands because it can burn and blister the skin if used incorrectly
**if you get it on your bare skin you will get this HORRIBLE taste in your mouth... always use gloves... non latex.. it can penetrate latex gloves

Yes people still use it, and it can be a very effective carrier or antinflammatory. but it has to be used with caution, and should be used under supervision from your veterinarian. It can burn tissue, and it can speed absorption of toxins. It is not FDA approved for use in humans, but has been approved for horses. Again, though, your vet should be involved in advising you on how it is to be used.
Karen C.....great point.......most people might not think to check out whether it is industrial or pharmaceutical grade.
