OSSOL Calcium and Vitamin Supplement Syrup

OVERVIEW

OSSOL Calcium and Vitamin Supplement Syrup is an oral dietary supplement. It is used during whelping and lactation, as well as in other cases of calcium deficiency that may result in hypocalcemia (low blood calcium). Calcium supplementation aims to maintain sufficient blood calcium levels to sustain efficient contractions during the whelp and ensure the bitch is receiving enough calcium during lactation. Additionally, 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). OSSOL Calcium and Vitamin Supplement Syrup 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.

Use calcium as advised by your veterinarian and not in place of a high-quality balanced diet or appropriate puppy milk.
