SELEKT™ Formulae

Rapid hydration and nutritional support for cattle and other ruminants.

Description

The SELEKT™ Nutritional Formulae range provides targeted, rapid hydration and clinical nutrition for cows and other adult ruminants. Designed for use under veterinary supervision, these easy-to-use sachets help manage metabolic conditions, dehydration, and recovery from illness.

  • Seven specialised formulae: Each formula is targeted to a specific condition, including Fresh Cow, Off Feed, Restore, Antacid, and SELEKT™ Glycerol Plus.

Dosage & administration

Powder formulas must be fully dissolved in warm water before administration. Use a SELEKT™ whisk to ensure proper mixing. Liquid formulae can be combined with powder solutions without adding extra water.
Administer using the SELEKT™ Pump & Drencher for optimal delivery into the rumen.

 

Important note: Always follow veterinary advice to ensure the correct formula is used. Never use less than 20 litres of water per sachet to prevent adverse effects. Early administration improves outcomes - use at the first sign of need.

FAQ

Can I use more than one sachet if the animal is severely dehydrated?

Yes, in cases of severe dehydration, multiple sachets can be used. For example, two sachets in 40 litres of warm water. However, certain products like SELEKT™ Fresh Cow 500 should not be used more than once per treatment.

Is it safe to use SELEKT™ formulae in freshly calved cows?

Yes, but it's crucial to choose the appropriate formula. For instance, SELEKT™ Fresh Cow 500 is specifically designed for freshly calved cows and helps reduce the risk of milk fever and ketosis. Avoid using formulas containing potassium, like SELEKT™ Off Feed or SELEKT™ Restore, in freshly calved cows as they may increase the risk of milk fever.

What is the purpose of SELEKT™ Glycerol Plus?

SELEKT™ Glycerol Plus is a glucogenic formulation used to reduce the risk of ketosis in dairy cows. It contains glycerol and propylene glycol, providing both rapid and sustained energy release. It's important to administer it with water to ensure proper absorption.
