Warm the container before administering the product. Inject aseptically. It should be administered slowly intravenously, observing the animal’s reaction to any symptoms of tachycardia or arrhythmia.

  • Do not administer to dehydrated animals without prior hydration therapy.
  • Do not administer in hyperexcited animals, due to risk of cardiac arrest.
  • Do not administer in animals with heart failure due to risk of arrhythmias and blockages.

Inflammation may be observed at the subcutaneous or intramuscular injection site, which gradually disappears.

  • Administration must be supervised by a Veterinarian.
  • When the chosen route of administration is intravenous, rapid administration should be avoided, as it may cause ventricular fibrillation, a risk inherent to injectable calcium.
  • Due to its high calcium content, Calfoma-12® can crystallize at low temperatures. In this case, heat the container until the crystals formed are dissolved.
  • Keep out of reach of children and pets.
  • Calcium prolongs or enhances the effects of Tubocurarine.
  • Animals receiving parenteral Calcium and Potassium supplements are at increased risk of cardiac arrhythmias: administer with caution.
  • Excessive intake of vitamin A can stimulate skeletal calcium depletion and cause hypercalcemia.
  • Concurrent use of high doses of vitamin D or its analogues may increase calcium absorption and promote hypercalcemia.
  • In case of contact with skin, eyes or mucous membranes, wash immediately with plenty of water. In case of irritation, seek medical attention and show product container.
  • In case of accidental injection, go immediately to a medical center and show the product package.

Empty containers can be discarded as household waste, without any special precautions. Do not dispose of containers with product residues on the ground or in waterways. For expired or unused products, contact the manufacturing laboratory.
