Description
Ironcyclen liquid is an iron supplement for horses
Ironcyclen Liquid contains iron, copper and cobalt to supplement diets which may be deficient in these essential minerals.
Racing, training and other forms of hard exercise increases the requirement for iron.
Ironcyclen is a specially formulated supplement to maximise haemoglobin and red blood cell production which helps improve the oxygen carrying capacity of the blood for peak performance.
Recommended For:
High performance horses:
Training and competing are added stresses which increase the demand for iron.
Horses who have experienced significant blood loss: e.g. surgery, stomach ulcers, parasite burdens, lung bleeders.
Animals in training prone to low blood counts and anaemia
Features:
Supports improved blood counts:
Only 15-18% of the iron in the feedstuffs of the average horses diet is absorbed.
Formulated for maximum absorption:
Ironcyclen contains 3 forms of iron which are readily absorbed by the gut and are generally of a higher quality than the regular iron used in many other supplements.
Essential balance of co-factors:
Copper and cobalt are essential for red blood cell and haemoglobin production.
Without these co-factors, even with high levels of iron, the horse will still be unable to produce optimal amounts of red blood cells.
Liquid formulation:
The unique formulation makes Ironcyclen easy to mix into feed or administered as directed by a veterinarian.
The highly palatable molasses flavoured liquid formulation contains:
Three forms of iron for maximum absorption
Organic iron aminoates which eliminate gut irritation
Co-factors of copper and cobalt essential to incorporate iron into haemoglobin
Dosage & Directions for Use:
Horses (450 - 500 kg):
45 - 75 mL daily in feed or as directed by a veterinary surgeon.

Hard Training:
Give 45 mL daily in a "3 days on, 3 days off" routine while in hard training, increasing to a maximum of 75 mL daily if required.
"Booster" courses of FBC Bloodffod at key training times will stimulate the bone marrow so that it can respond to the increased demand for more cells.
