Six horses with dysphagia (attributable to botulism, glossitis, or guttural pouch mycosis) were given a commercially available liquid diet as the sole source of nutrition. Seven horses with hypophagia caused by severe bacterial pleuropneumonia or peritonitis were given the liquid diet to supplement food consumed voluntarily. The liquid diet was administered through a nasogastric tube 2 or 3 times daily. Body weight did not change significantly, and pertinent laboratory values remained at satisfactory concentrations throughout the feeding period. Serious complications were not encountered. Three horses developed loose, low-volume feces, but did not require treatment.
六匹患有吞咽困难（由肉毒中毒、舌炎或咽鼓管真菌病引起）的马被给予一种市售流食作为唯一营养来源。七匹因严重细菌性胸膜肺炎或腹膜炎导致食欲减退的马被给予流食以补充其自主摄入的食物。流食通过鼻胃管每天投喂2至3次。在整个投喂期间，体重没有显著变化，相关实验室指标浓度一直保持在令人满意的水平。未出现严重并发症。三匹马出现了少量稀便，但无需治疗。
