Vitamin C (Ascorbic acid) Injection provides Vitamin C supplementation.
Vitamin C is essential to normal joint cartilage maintenance and repair.
Vitamin C acts to reduce stress and improves cardiovascular function.
How It Works:
Vitamin C is an essential coenzyme in certain metabolic processes, particularly in the metabolism of the amino acids Tyrosine and Phenylalanine, collagen synthesis in ligaments, tendons and joint cartilage, synthesis of L-Carnitine, red blood cell formation, and modulating immune responses, as well as in the maintenance of healthy skin.
It is also essential in the conversion of Folic acid, and in promoting the absorption of Iron from the gut.
Vitamin C has a role in the metabolism of certain steroid hormones, and high levels of Vitamin C are found in the Adrenal gland in times of stress.
Vitamin C has a major role as a potent antioxidant to remove toxic free radicals produced during hard physical exercise.
Vitamin C is critical and essential in the maintenance and repair of joints and joint cartilage, synthesis of collagen, proteoglycans and other joint components, tooth, bone, skin and blood vessel maintenance, and in the healing and repair of wounds, burns and fractures.
Vitamin C is essential in the synthesis of L-Carnitine.
Like the B Complex vitamins, Vitamin C is water soluble, and is not well stored in the body.
It is rapidly absorbed and equally as rapidly excreted, so must be supplemented on a regular basis.
Horses are able to synthesise Vitamin C in normal circumstances, but failure of liver enzyme systems can initiate a deficiency.

Common Questions
What animals is this Vitamin C injection suitable for?
This product is registered for use in horses and dogs. Always consult your veterinary surgeon to confirm it is appropriate for your animal and its individual health needs.
What does Vitamin C do in the body?
Vitamin C is essential for joint cartilage maintenance and repair, collagen synthesis, immune function, wound healing, and acts as a powerful antioxidant. It also supports bone, skin and blood vessel health, helps with iron absorption, and reduces physical stress on the body.
How is this product administered?
This is an injection product given by intramuscular injection. For the correct dose and frequency for your animal, consult the product label or speak with your veterinary surgeon, who can advise based on your animal's specific needs.
Why do horses and dogs need regular Vitamin C supplementation?
Vitamin C is water soluble and is not stored well in the body—it is rapidly absorbed and excreted, so regular supplementation is necessary to maintain adequate levels. While horses can normally produce their own Vitamin C, liver enzyme issues can lead to deficiency, making supplementation valuable during stress or recovery.
