FAST & SUSTAINED RELEASE OF CALCIUM

Bovikalc^® is an oral calcium supplement for use around parturition in fresh dairy cows.

Direction for Use:

Minimum Protocol: Give one bolus immediately after calving and a second bolus 12 - 24 hours after calving. Only administer using the Bovikalc^® branded applicator.

Extended Protocol: For high yielding cows administer:

● 1st bolus at the first signs of parturition

● 2nd bolus immediately after calving

● 3rd bolus 12 - 24 hours after calving

● 4th bolus 24 - 48 hours after calving

Please discuss protocol with your veterinarian before implementation.

Place the bolus in the bolus applicator with the rounded end pointing outward.

If right-handed, place yourself at the cow’s right side.

Grab the cow’s upper jaw with your left hand. Keep the cow’s head at a natural position and a little towards yourself. Gently guide the loaded Bovikalc^® applicator into the cow’s mouth.

When you feel resistance, gently guide the applicator over the tongue. When the applicator is behind the tongue, squeeze the handle to release the bolus.

Wait a moment for the cow to swallow and then remove the applicator.
