StallWise / ShowSafe Pro / Withdrawal times

Horse medication withdrawal and detection times, by rulebook

53 medications, each with how USEF, FEI, HISA/HIWU, AQHA, APHA, NRHA, NCHA, Equestrian Canada, ARCI, IFHA and the state racing commissions list it, every published detection time for the dose and route studied, and the document and page behind each value. Transcribed from the governing bodies' own documents for ShowSafe Pro, checked daily for changes.

A detection time is the approximate period a drug or its metabolite stayed detectable in the horses studied, at the dose and route studied. It is not a withdrawal time. No governing body publishes withdrawal times for you; your veterinarian sets the safety margin for your horse. Nothing on this page is a veterinary ruling or a promise that a horse will test clean. Rules change; the document, version and page behind every value are linked so you can check the current text. Looking for a medication that is not here? ShowSafe Pro reports it as "Unknown", never "Clear", and quotes what each rulebook says about unlisted substances.
