Cautions:

Federal law restricts this drug to use by or on the order of a licensed veterinarian. Do not exceed the recommended dosage. Occasionally, reactions of an anaphylactic or allergic nature may occur. Should such reactions occur, treat immediately with an injection of epinephrine or antihistamines. Do not add water to the solution.

NOT FOR HUMAN USE.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN.

Discussion:

Natural tocopherols in feedstuffs can be destroyed through processing, ensiling and storage. A reduced vitamin E intake can result in marginal deficiencies that may not be visible. Intramuscular or subcutaneous injections offer a rapid method to increase the vitamin E status of animals.

Presentation:

250 mL vials.
