INDICATIONS

For swine and poultry.

Betamint is used as an anti-stress supplement and for correction of water–electrolyte balance during heat stress in poultry and swine in hot seasons (elevated temperature and humidity in housing facilities).

• • Prevention of electrolyte imbalance, acid–base disorders, protein, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism disturbances, fatty liver degeneration, decreased productivity, and structural changes of the gastrointestinal mucosa during heat stress.
    • Recommended for prevention of transport stress syndrome (live weight loss during transportation, hematomas, bruises, fractures).
    • Improves sow fertility and promotes weight gain in young animals.

Dissolve 2 L of Betamint in 1000 L of water and administer for 5 days.

If heat stress symptoms are pronounced (depression, elevated body temperature, panting, rapid shallow breathing, reduced appetite and productivity, increased hematocrit, erythrocytes and total protein), continue administration.
