[Description]
CALMAG IV is a well-balanced solution for the treatment of hypocalcaemia in cattle, calves, sheep and pigs. Hypocalcaemia frequently occurs in these animals and is often accompanied by metabolic disorders. The decisive advantage of calcium gluconate is its excellent tissue-tolerance. The solubility of calcium gluconate is increased by adding boric acid and, as a consequence, the necessary quantity of calcium can be administered in marginal volumes. The animal's heart is protected against the cardiotoxic effects of calcium during intravenous application by the addition of magnesium.
It is also excellent as an adjunctive therapy in the treatment of allergies, urticaria, haemorrhagic diathesis and weak uterine contractions in cattle, calves, sheep and pigs.
[Indications]
Treatment of acute hypocalcemia and for the adjunctive therapy in the treatment of allergies, urticaria, haemorrhagic diathesis and uterine inertia in livestock.
