Lectade is an oral electrolyte and glucose mix for scouring calves and lambs. Rehydration buys time and is often what actually saves the animal, but a scour that does not improve in a day or two needs a diagnosis — electrolytes treat the dehydration, not whatever is causing it.
Sold by the box of 12 x 64g sachets. Other Jurox products are in the Jurox range.
Key points
- Box of 12 sachets — each 64g sachet makes up as directed on the label
- Electrolytes plus glucose — replaces what a scouring animal loses
- Not a cure — persistent scours need a vet diagnosis
