Indications:
An essential, short acting, form of vitamin B12 Selenium with a cobalt-containing vitamin for energy metabolism and production of red blood cells. A red solution for injection, with added selenium as an essential trace element.
WHAT ARE THE CLINICAL SIGNS OF B12 DEFICIENCIES?

Features:
B12 injections are often referred to as an appetite stimulant. Cobalt availability to animals is governed by several different factors including:
- Natural bio availability in the soil
- Presence of other minerals and supplements, which can ‘lock up’ cobalt, so that its uptake into pastures is restricted
- Heavy rainfall leading to leaching
- Pasture types such as a ‘spring flush’ which absorbs cobalt at lower rates
