A composition for treating equine gastric ulcers comprises a mixture of a proton pump inhibitor, bismuth salicylate, and glycerin, preferably mixed with a sweetener and a flavoring agent. Preferably, the proton pump inhibitor is omeprazole. As an alternative to bismuth salicylate, bismuth citrate or sucralfate may be substituted. The ratio of acid antagonist to bismuth salicylate is approximately 1:3 by weight, and a sufficient quantity of glycerin is mixed with these to form a paste. The composition is given orally using a syringe in the amount of 15 ccs per day.
