In an attempt to enhance performance, primarily by delaying the onset of fatigue, a variety of formulations of fluids, electrolytes, and sodium bicarbonate are administered to performance horses. Some current practices of fluid and electrolyte supplementation are well justified; others have no basis to support their use. In addition, occasional combined administration of certain agents (i.e., furosemide and sodium bicarbonate) can have detrimental effects on performance.
为了提高性能,主要是通过延缓疲劳的出现,人们给赛马使用了各种含有液体、电解质和碳酸氢钠的制剂。目前一些补充液体和电解质的做法有充分的理由;而其他一些做法则没有依据支持其使用。此外,偶尔联合使用某些药物(如速尿和碳酸氢钠)可能会对性能产生不利影响。
