OSSOL Calcium and Vitamin Supplement

OVERVIEW

Inca OSSOL Calcium and Vitamin Supplement is an oral dietary supplement in syrup form. Use it during whelping and lactation and other cases of calcium deficiency that may result in hypocalcemia (low blood calcium).

During whelping, calcium supplementation aims to maintain sufficient blood calcium levels to sustain efficient contractions during the whelp. During lactation, it ensures the bitch is receiving enough calcium during lactation. Supplementing promotes the remineralisation of the bones in calcium deficiency and disorders of calcium metabolism and aims to prevent conditions such as eclampsia (AKA milk fever).

It also contains cholecalciferol (AKA Vitamin D3) and Thiamine HCl (a compound containing Vitamin B1). These vitamins aid in the absorption of calcium in the intestines.
