• 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

• Do not redose with this product within three months of the previous dose. Within this period re-treat with a non-selenised Vitamin B12 supplement
