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 to hyperexcited animals, due to risk of cardiac arrest.

Swelling may be seen at the site of the subcutaneous or intramuscular injection, which gradually disappears.

  • The administration must be supervised by a Veterinarian.
  • When the route of administration chosen is intravenous, rapid administration should be avoided, as it can 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 dissolve.
  • 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 care.
  • Excessive intake of vitamin A can stimulate skeletal calcium depletion and cause hypercalcemia.
  • Concurrent use of high doses of vitamin D or its analogues can increase calcium absorption and promote hypercalcemia.
  • In the case of ocular exposure, irrigate eyes with plenty of water. If irritation exists and persists, consult a doctor.
