With the prowinj partipation of crioulo horses in sport events there has been an increase in the use of compounds with ergogenic properties, such as those called hematinics. The most common hematinics are contain iron, zinc, copper and vitamins of the B complex, all necessary components for the synthesis of red blood cells and hemoglobin.The goal of this study was to assess the effects of the use of hematinics on selected blood parameters in 24 yearling crioulo horses. The horses were randomly divided in two groups (control and treated group). The baseline values of red blood cell number, packed cell volume, hemoglobin, leukocytes, plasma protein and fibrinogen, were determined using three samples of blood from each horse. Then the horses of the treated group received 30ml/ day of an oral hematinic compound for 60 days. The control group received the same volume of water as placebo. New blood samples were taken 15, 30, 45 and 60 days during treatment for determination of the same blood parameters. There were no significant differences between treated and control group. The hematinic did not induced any hematologic effect under the treatment conditions in this study.
