When it comes to high-risk transition cows, preventing complications is far more manageable and cost effective than treatment.
TRANSITION™ Boluses contain a unique combination of calcium and vitamin D3. Cows given TRANSITION™ Boluses receive supplemental calcium and vitamin D3 when they need it the most. TRANSITION™ Calcium Boluses include three proven sources of calcium;
◾Calcium chloride
◾Calcium propionate
◾Calcium carbonate
Vitamin D3 is also introduced to help the absorption and metabolism of calcium and phosphorus.
TRANSITION™ Calcium Boluses are easy to administer, safe for the animal and help prepare cows to enter the milking herd in a normal time frame.
TRANSITION™ Calcium Boluses feature revolutionary technology that offers significant advantages when compared to other supplements. Using a patented process, high concentrations of nutrients are liquefied, hardened and compressed into a single, quick dissolution bolus.
