Johnson’s Calcium Tablets x40 Tablets
Johnson’s Calcium and Vitamin D Tablets are a great supplement for animals which may be suffering from a calcium deficiency after whelping or need a boost if Vitamin D.
- The chocolate flavouring of these tablets helps administration.
- The added phosphorus is fundamental in healthy bones, teeth and muscle development.
- Suitable for dogs, cats, puppies and kittens.
Warning: Do not administer to pregnant females without veterinary supervision.
When it comes to whelping calcium is not about bones and teeth. The purpose of calcium during whelping is to give strength and intensity to the contraction. Calcium is stored in the bones; its release is regulated by the parathyroid gland. When the demand for calcium in the blood stream is high (such as during whelping) the parathyroid gland pulls it from the bone in to the blood stream. If it becomes clear that normal labour is slowing down this is when some breeders will give a calcium supplement (check correct dosage instructions on product) and also give glucose as it can help to strengthen and intensify a bitches contractions. When you give calcium orally the bitch`s body will excrete what she does not need, so It is completely safe and does not have any negative side affect’s. CALCIUM SUPPLEMENT should ONLY be given AFTER whelping/contractions have begun.
IF UNSURE WHEN TO GIVE CALCIUM OR FIRST TIME WHELPING PLEASE CONTACT YOU VETS FOR PROFESSIONAL VETERINARY ADVICE BEFORE USING
