my horse is on adequan i.m. any reason to continue with oral supplement?

hello!
i am well rounded with the use of adequan and legend and of course the ever popular oral joint supplements. my 3 show horses get adequan every month, legend ever 3 months and are on platinum performance complete joint daily. they show and do well with that regimen. my "retired" QH who i still ride rather heavily 6 days a week (we jump on occasion and still do level 2 dressage) and still show but less competitively. he is on platinum performance complete joint and adequan every month as well. he gets legend every 6 months or so to give him a "boost". he is sound and happy but i feel as though he does not need so much joint support. he gets about the same joint care as my competitive AA level 7 jumper does! (he used to do the level 7′s as well :)

anyway, my question is should i continue the oral supplement or give just the adequan? should i try a less expensive and less comprehensive joint support supplement vs. the $135/month platinum?
i guess this is kind of an obvious question to some but its like….if he is sound and doing well…why change anything?
any help/experience with using just adequan etc. would be greatly appreciated.

Really you should talk to you vet about that. I think that if your horse is doing great I wouldn’t change anything.
