  • Helps restore hepatic vitamin B12 reserves in dogs and cats.

  • When a vitamin B12 deficiency is common (exocrine pancreatic insufficiency, chronic enteropathy, cholangitis, etc.), parenteral administration of this vitamin, in high doses, once a week, was the rule in both human and veterinary practice.

    However, it has been demonstrated for several years, in humans, that a high dose of vitamin B12, orally, daily, makes it possible to obtain the same result as weekly parenteral administration, thanks to the phenomenon of passive diffusion which concerns 1% of the vitamin B12 ingested: this passive diffusion allows contributions higher than the natural possibilities obtained with the intrinsic factor.

    Unassimilated vitamin B12 (99%) is eliminated mainly through the urine, giving a red tint to the urine.

  • Oral route.

    Daily dose during the initial period:
    up to 10 kg: half a tablet per day,
    from 10 to 20 kg: one tablet per day,
    more than 20 kg: two tablets per day.

    The maintenance dose will then be determined by your veterinarian based on the results obtained for cobalaminemia.

    The palatable tablets are usually taken spontaneously. Otherwise, simply add them to the ration, if necessary after crumbling.
    The very low levels of phosphorus, potassium and sodium are compatible with diets for people with heart or kidney failure.

  • Cyanocobalamin allergy

  • Store away from humidity and light, out of sight and reach of children.
