The 500ml is what you keep in the shed for the odd cow; the 5L is for a herd going through a calving period.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAn oral gel is not a substitute for treatment.\u003c\/strong\u003e Oral calcium is used preventively and as support for cows at risk. A cow that is already down with clinical milk fever needs veterinary treatment — usually intravenous calcium — and giving an oral gel instead of calling the vet costs the cow time. Talk to your vet about where oral calcium fits in your calving protocol.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDosing rate, timing and any withholding period are printed on the pack.
