Clinical Veterinary Indications

• Pregnancy & Lactation: High-demand calcium and multivitamin support to prevent maternal milk fever, eclampsia (hypocalcemia), and skeletal mineral depletion.

• Pediatric Skeletal Development: Healthy bone, joint, and dentition development in fast-growing puppies, kittens, and large/giant breed dogs.

• Rickets & Osteomalacia: Clinical prevention and nutritional management of rickets, fibrous osteodystrophy, and soft, deformed bones.

• Pica (Nutritional Depraved Appetite): Compulsive licking of walls, eating mud, soil, stones, cement, or paper caused by mineral deficiencies.

• Bone Fracture Rehabilitation: Accelerated bone callus formation and structural remineralization following orthopedic surgery or fractures.

• Exotic Pets & Avian Species: Egg-binding prevention in birds, metabolic bone disease (MBD) prevention in reptiles/exotics.

Safety Warnings, Precautions & Storage

• Animal Dietary Supplement Only: For animal oral supplementation only. Not for human use.

• Hypercalcemia Precaution: Do not administer to animals diagnosed with pre-existing hypercalcemia, active renal calcinosis, or severe calcium oxalate urinary calculi without explicit veterinary supervision.

• Avoid Indiscriminate Over-Supplementation: While MCHC and Vitamin K2 provide balanced physiological absorption, adhere strictly to the recommended weight-based guidelines—especially in giant-breed puppies on calorie-dense commercial puppy diets.

• Storage: Store below 25°C in a cool, dry place protected from heat, moisture, and direct sunlight. Keep the bottle tightly closed after each use. Shake well before measuring each dose. Keep strictly out of reach of children and domestic pets.
