What this hoof packing is for
Absorbine 429 Magic Cushion is a medicated hoof packing formulated for equine athletes. It delivers anti-inflammatory and analgesic action to reduce concussion, pain and trauma inside the hoof capsule. The product is intended for daily use after workouts or beneath a protective pad to support recovery and promote hoof growth. It addresses conditions such as laminitis, white line disease, pedal osteitis, abscesses, navicular syndrome, bruising, corns and canker.
Installation and common issues
Application is straightforward: pack the material into the cleaned hoof sole and frog area, then secure with a pad or wrap as directed by your farrier or veterinarian. The packing conforms to the hoof shape and stays in place during normal turnout or work. Problems usually arise when the hoof is not thoroughly cleaned beforehand, when the packing is applied too thinly, or when the protective pad shifts and allows dirt to enter. Replacing the packing at the recommended interval prevents it from drying out or losing effectiveness.
What to verify before ordering
Confirm that the horse’s specific condition is among those listed for this formula, such as laminitis, abscesses or navicular syndrome. Ensure you have a suitable protective pad or wrap available to cover the packing once applied. Check that your farrier or veterinarian approves daily use for your horse’s workload and hoof health status. The product ships as an 8 lb container, so verify you have adequate storage space and that the quantity matches your expected usage rate.

Questions about this item
How can I tell the 429 Magic Cushion is working after I apply it to the hoof?
You should notice reduced heat and sensitivity in the hoof within hours, and the horse will show improved comfort when moving on hard ground over the following days.
What comes in the 8 lb container and do I need any extra items to use it?
The tub contains the ready-to-use medicated packing; you only need a hoof pick, wrap or pad to hold it in place, and a disposable glove for application.
Which version of the 429 Magic Cushion should I choose for daily post-workout use versus acute laminitis?
The single 8 lb formula covers both — apply a thinner layer under a pad for routine recovery and a thicker layer for acute flare-ups.
