Product Details
Hippiron is for the treatment of iron deficiency in horses (equine anaemia).
Iron deficiency results in poor performance in horses. It also compromises immunity and health, and increases susceptibility to disease and infection. Anaemia also reduces blood enzymes which are important for the elimination of harmful metabolites produced by the muscle during racing.
Trials with Hippiron in racing horses showed that Hippiron treatment consistently increased haemoglobin & other blood values under different treatment frequencies and dose schedules. The effects of the Hippiron treatment as measured by improvement in haemoglobin was evident for up to 3 months.
Composition:
Each 20mL contains Iron (Fe) 400mg as iron III hydroxide sucrose complex in an aqueous solution.
