Indications
Durvet Foal Sorb is a supplemental source of electrolytes, sodium, L-Glutamine and complex carbohydrates for use on foals at the first sign of diarrhea and/or dehydration.
For Use On
Foals
Benefits
- A new generation electrolyte formula developed exclusively for use in foals, now available in your Durvet label for over-the-counter sales. Until now, this formula has been available to veterinarians only
- Contains Immune System Boosters: Stops diarrhea (most cases in 20-30 minutes), Prevents dehydration, Restores electrolyte balance, Limits damage to intestinal villi that might otherwise hinder growth and development
- Contains L-glutamine, commonly used in many human infant electrolyte formulations, which has been shown to speed regeneration of damaged intestinal villi (helps heal the gut)
- Contains maltodextrin: a carbohydrate that is easily and more completely absorbed, resulting in the removal of excess fluid from the gut that would otherwise become diarrhea
- Corrects electrolyte imbalance resulting from diarrhea episode
- Does not contain glucose or dextrose (glucose can actually cause dehydration in severe cases of diarrhea)
- Does not slow down natural flow of the gut
- Reduces or eliminates the need for potent drug therapy
- Reduces or eliminates the time required to keep the foal’s buttocks cleansed of “burning” feces
- Slight apple and molasses flavor for increased palatability
