Vitamin B1 Injection

Supplement of essential Vitamin B1 (Thiamine) for Horses and Dogs By NaturevetHow does Vitamin B1 work?THiamine (Vitamin B1) plays an important role in the metabolism of carbohydrates and energy production for all cells.Free Thiamine cannot be stored in the body and it is rapidly absorbed from the intestine or blood as well as from injection sites.Like all B complex vitamins, Thiamine is water soluble so it is rapidly absorbed and rapidly excreted from the body. This is why regular supplementation is often needed - especially in hard working animals when dietary input is not sufficient.Thiamine is found in both meat and cereal products. Thiamine in food is destroyed by cooking. For example, Beef loses up to 75% of its Thiamine when cooked.Dosage and Administration:Horses: Give 5 - 10ml by intramuscular injection twice weekly or as directed by your vetDogs: Give 1-2ml twice weekly or as directed by your vet.
