Respiron

Natural Respiratory Support for Calves & Young Cattle.

Assists in Alleviating Stress and Respiratory Problems Naturally.

Respiron is formulated to support: A combination of antioxidants herbs and natural oils to support the respiratory and immune system of calves and weanling’s. An appetite stimulant is added to encourage feed intake. Poor feed intake at weaned, at housing or after transport is a major cause of stress.

Pneumonia: One of the biggest killers of weanling and dairy calves is without doubt respiratory infections and more specifically, pneumonia. Like the common cold we suffer from, pneumonia infection is common in the calves environment. For the most part the calf is able to deal with it using it’s own natural defense mechanisms. When the calf becomes stressed its immunity is reduced. This allows bugs to multiply and infections can occur.

Ideally feed:

• At weaning for 7 days • At housing for 7 days • At the first sign of respiratory problems for an initial period of 7 days. Continue if necessary • After taking home from sales feed for 7 days • 3 days prior to risk periods
