Product Information
Full details
Provita Energy Plus is an essential nutritional supplement designed for dairy farmers and livestock managers looking to support cows suffering from ketosis and ewes affected by twin-lamb disease. By providing an instantly available energy source that the liver can rapidly convert into glucose, this supplement helps stabilize blood sugar levels without triggering an overproduction of harmful ketone bodies. While highly effective at jump-starting recovery, it is important to note that it should be used as part of a broader herd health strategy rather than a substitute for veterinary diagnosis and long-term nutritional management.

FAQs
Can I use this for preventative purposes?
Provita Energy Plus is designed for active cases of ketosis and twin-lamb disease. Consult your veterinarian for preventative nutritional advice.
What happens if I miss a dose?
Resume the schedule as soon as possible. Do not double the dose to make up for a missed application.
Is it safe to mix with other medications?
While generally safe, you should consult your veterinarian if you are administering other treatments simultaneously.
Does it require special storage?
Keep it in a cool, dry, dark environment to maintain the potency of the vitamins and herbal additives.
How long should a 5-litre container last?
Usage depends on the number of animals treated; a single cow requires 700ml for a full 4-day course.
Does it contain prohibited substances?
It is a nutritional supplement designed to support metabolic function; always check local farm regulations if you are supplying milk or meat for specific markets.
Troubleshooting
Animal refuses to swallow the liquid
Ensure the animal is properly restrained and administer the liquid slowly towards the back of the tongue to encourage a natural swallowing reflex.
No improvement in symptoms after four days
Cease supplementation and consult a veterinarian immediately, as the underlying cause may be beyond a simple energy deficit.
