Cobalife Vitamin B12 + Selenium 500ml "SPECIAL ORDER ONLY - CONTACT CLINIC TO ORDER"
**SPECIAL ORDER ONLY - CONTACT CLINIC TO ORDER**
Vitamin B12 is essential for the synthesis of nucleoproteins and thus for the normal production of red blood cells.
Vitamin B12 deficiency results in reduced appetite and growth rates, ill thrift, infertility and reduced wool and milk production. Selenium deficiency can result in lameness, White Muscle Disease, reduced fertility and immunity, and reduced wool and milk production. Deficiency may occur at any stage of the year but is more likely to happen during stressful periods such as calving/lambing and growing periods of stock. Subcutaneous injection of Vitamin B12 and Selenium is the preferred method of preventing and correcting Vitamin B12 and Selenium deficiency.
