Overall, Vytrate Scour Treatment serves as a reliable solution that addresses various animals’ dehydration and scouring needs while helping restore their well-being.

How does Vytrate Scour Treatment work?

  • Vytrate is an isotonic rehydration fluid and non-antibiotic supportive treatment of scouring and dehydration.
  • Glucose and glycine are actively absorbed by the intestine, causing the absorption of water and sodium, resulting in the rehydration of the scouring animal.

Why choose Vytrate Scour Treatment;

  • Vytrate is a suitable first feed for bought-in or stressed calves and pigs.
  • Vytrate actively fights the dehydration that kills.
  • Vytrate reduces scour duration and severity and replaces lost fluids and electrolytes.
  • It is a non-antibiotic supportive treatment.
  • Suitable for use in various animals, including calves, pigs, dogs, cats, lambs and foals.
  • It is a suitable first feed for bought-in calves or stressed calves and pigs.

How is Vytrate Scour Treatment Reconstituted/ Diluted;

  • Vytrate is supplied in two sections. Sections 1 and 2 must be used together.
  • Add the contents of section 1 and section 2 to 2 litres of warm water. Stir until dissolved.
  • To prepare 500 mL, add 1 level 5 mL medicine spoonful of powder from section 1 and 3 heaped spoonfuls of powder from section 2. Refrigerate the remaining solution after use and use within 24 hours. Prepare fresh solution daily.

Pack Size: 64gm Sachet (duo-sachets yielding 2 L solution when reconstituted). 12 x 64gm per carton.

Directions Of Use

Dosage & Application:

  • As soon as scours signs appear, fresh diluted solution should be made available to the whole litter in a clean vessel.
  • A litter of 1-week-old piglets will consume approximately 2-3 litres daily.

Weaned Pigs:

  • Scouring weaned pigs should have a fresh diluted solution available in a suitable clean vessel.
  • Restrict solid feed intake for one or two days, but continue to supply fresh drinking water.
  • Weaners will consume 1-2 litres/ weaner/ day as a general guide.

Duration of treatment (all pigs):

  • A diluted solution should be available for 4 days, but if the scour has not cleared completely, treatment may be continued for up to 8 days.
  • If there is no sign of improvement, consult a veterinary surgeon.

Sheep (lambs):

  • Vytrate solution made up as directed should be administered orally to scouring or dehydrated neonatal lambs by a drenching bottle or stomach tube.
  • As a guide, 150 mL of Vytrate solution 3 times daily is a suitable dosage regimen.

Calves (Bought-in or stressed claves – not scouring):

  • Feed 2 litres of solution, made up as directed, instead of milk as the first feed on arrival.
  • For the next scheduled feed, use a 1-litre solution at the same time as, but not mixed with, milk or milk replacer. Thereafter, feed a normal diet.

Calves – Scouring:

  • Feed 1 to 1.5 litres of solution per 10kg body weight daily, divided into two or more daily doses.
  • If scouring is established or severe, causing dehydration, the higher dose should be used initially and fed in three or four divided doses.
  • In many cases, 2 litres of diluted solution given morning and night will be adequate.
  • Replace with fresh solution every 24 hours.
  • To maintain adequate energy and nutrient intake, milk feeding should continue as normal during a period of scouring.
  • A diluted solution should be given between these milk feeds.
  • Replace with fresh solution every 24 hours.
  • Fresh drinking water should be available at all times.
  • Keep feeding utensils clean, and avoid overfeeding.
  • Normal feeding should be resumed after the course of treatment.
  • Many scouring problems can be avoided by feeding adequate colostrum early in the calf’s life.
  • Seek veterinary advice if blood is present or if scours persist beyond four days.

Horses – Foals:

  • Administer diluted solution, made up as directed, orally to scouring or dehydrated foals by drenching using a bottle or stomach tube.
  • As a guide, 1 to 2 litres of fresh diluted solution 2 to 3 times daily, depending on body weight and severity of the symptoms, has been reported as a suitable dosage regimen for neonatal foals.

Cats & Dogs:

  • The following dosage regimens of prepared Vytrate solution are recommended as a guide.
  • Cats, miniature dogs (<5kg) 125mL 2-3 times daily
  • Small dogs (5-10kg) 250mL 2-3 times daily
  • Medium dogs (11-20kg) 500mL 2-3 times daily
  • Large dogs (>20kg) 750mL 2-3 times daily
  • Many dogs find Vytrate palatable and will drink the solution voluntarily.
  • Palatability for cats is variable.
  • Vytrate may also be administered orally via a dosage syringe.
  • Treatment should be continued for 1 to 2 days after the animal appears clinically recovered and feeds normally.

Periods of stress:

  • For the 2 to 3 days following any period of stress (e.g. weaning, transport), Vytrate will help to increase fluid and electrolyte consumption and absorption, so minimising any possible setback.
  • As diluted solution is extremely palatable and excessive drinking may occur, diluted solution at half the strength recommended above may be used for this indication only.
  • Replace with fresh solution every 24 hours.

Note:

  • When specific disease control (i.e. antibiotic therapy) is indicated, it can be administered in conjunction with Vytrate.
  • Stressed and scouring animals requiring rehydration are at risk of multiple organ dysfunction.
  • It is strongly recommended that veterinary advice is sought when considering treating dehydrated animals.
