Benfital Plus

Benfital Plus is a supplementary diet food for calves with diarrhea or the risk of diarrhea.

It stabilizes the water and electrolyte balance. Benfital Plus is suitable for all types of diarrhea; it promotes the removal of pathogens and helps to quickly resolve the effects of diarrhea, such as dehydration, acidosis (blood acidification) and electrolyte deficiency. In addition, it contains a high level of glucose with an energy content of 310 kcal per drink.

Benfital Plus can be administered with both water and milk replacer.

Benfital Plus ensures:

• Quick recovery from dehydration; the optimal electrolyte composition and osmolarity ensure a rapid improvement of the water and electrolyte balance.
• A high level of glucose; with an energy content of 310 kcal per drink. The glucose prevents and restores low blood sugar levels and it stimulates the absorption of electrolytes.
• Soluble in milk; Benfital has no influence on the normal coagulation of milk in the abomasum and can therefore be given with both water and (artificial) milk.
• Immediate and long-term buffer effect; The recovery and prevention of blood acidification takes place in three steps. Sodium carbonate is immediately available and is also gradually released from sodium acetate and sodium citrate.
• Natural regulation of the intestinal flora; the adsorbent fibers (pectins) coated with lecithin and the yeast cells with MOS (mannaoligosaccharides) bind E.Coli and Salmonella bacteria. The pathogens are thus excreted with the manure.

Application

For calves with diarrhea, mix 100 g Benfital® Plus (2 measuring spoons) with 2 liters of warm water at 35-40°C and feed immediately. Repeat this 2 to 3 times a day until the animal has recovered. For larger calves (> 60 kg) or severely dehydrated animals, use 150 g Benfital® Plus (3 measuring spoons) mixed with 3 liters of warm water.

In cases of uncomplicated diarrhea and in periods of an increased risk of diarrhea, Benfital® Plus can be mixed with milk or milk replacer instead of water. In such cases it is recommended to offer the calf extra water between milk feedings. It is recommended to consult a veterinarian before use and if no recovery has occurred within 48 hours.
