Pharmacological activity:

The veterinary drug has a complex effect on the animal’s body, due to its active substances (vitamins and minerals), which have a synergistic effect.

The veterinary drug compensates vitamins, macro- and micronutrients deficiency in the animal’s body, improves metabolism, reduces impact of stress, and has a stimulating effect, which positively affects the health and mortality of young animals, productivity and fertility of adult animals.

Vitamins that contained in the veterinary drug are catalysts of metabolic processes and the most important biochemical reactions. Macro- and microelements of the drug are involved in the regulation of osmotic and acid-base balance, in the synthesis of hormones, enzymes and other compounds. Vitamin A regulates the function and regeneration of epithelial tissues, it is responsible for the synthesis of the visual pigment rhodopsin. Vitamin D₃ is involved in the metabolism of calcium and phosphorus, has an anti-rickety effect. Vitamin E, being a strong antioxidant, regulates redox processes, protects cells from free radicals, and is also necessary for the proper functioning of the reproductive system. B vitamins affect the normalization of metabolism and the regulation of nervous processes.
