Section 5 - Vitamins


 
 

Vitamins and trace elements can provide many benefits in the prevention or treatment of disease.  Vitamin deficiencies can lead to several problems ranging from eating disorders to calving problems in heifers.  Some vitamin combinations have strict label directions that include withdrawal periods and proper route of administration.  It is important to read and follow label directions when administering these products to ensure efficacy and intent.  Using vitamins and/or trace elements extra label is not only a waste of money but can induce excess stress upon the animal.  Consult your veterinarian or nutritionist if any questions arise as to the proper use of these products.
