How Furazone For Horses Works

Nitrofurazone, the active ingredient, disrupts bacterial cell enzymes and DNA synthesis, effectively eliminating pathogens on contact. Additionally, its occlusive ointment medium maintains a moist wound environment, which modern veterinary science recognizes as optimal for healing.
