• Sheep 1mL pre-lambing

• Calves 2 - 3mL from 2 months of age

• Cows 4 - 6mL pre-calving

• Cobalt deficiency in soil and/or pasture leads to a lack of Vitamin B12 in body tissues of stock which, subsequently, may have poor growth rates and ill thrift, particularly in young animals

• Before treatment, establish pasture cobalt levels and/or Vitamin B12 status of stock

• Treatment is likely to last only 4-6 weeks if liver storage levels of Vitamin B12 and pasture levels of  cobalt are low

• Treatment of pregnant ruminants should benefit newborn animals, particularly when treated in latter stages of pregnancy

• Supplementation of young ruminants should begin at or before weaning.

• Seek veterinary advice if poor stock condition persists after treatment
