I-Cap Gel Cattle Oral Supplement

Hypercalcemia in Animals

• Occurs frequently within 72 hours post-calving
• Causes include low calcium in early milk (colostrum) compared to normal milk, resulting in a 12% higher or better quality calcium depletion in the body.
• Insufficient calcium given to animals can lead to Hypocalcemia or milk fever.
• Factors like reduced calcium absorption in the small intestine, deficiency of Vitamin D in the body, improper calcium to phosphorus ratio (2:1), and Lack of parathyroid hormone contribute to Hypocalcemia or milk fever.
• I Cap Gel is a comprehensive solution for calcium supplementation in animals, addressing various challenges associated with Hypocalcemia or milk fever effectively.
