Bovikalc
Dry boluses are an oral mineral supplement that help maintain cow comfort by
reducing milk production at dry-off. This is caused by inducing a slight and
temporary metabolic acidosis. Reduction of milk production is beneficial for
udder health because it decreases udder engorgement and pressure, which helps
reduce discomfort. After administration, the bolus dissolves into the rumen
within 30 minutes and the anionic salts are released and then absorbed, which
impacts the cow's acid-base balance.
Contains calcium
chloride, calcium sulfate and ammonium chloride.
Directions: Give 2 boluses at last milking or 8-12 hours before the last milking. Do not administer more than 4 boluses per 24 hours.
