An oral rehydration therapy containing a balanced mixture of glucose, glycine and electrolytes for the treatment of dehydration and electrolyte imbalance. Glucose and glycine are actively absorbed by the intestinal tract causing water and sodium to be absorbed simultaneously with these nutrients, ensuring a high degree of rehydration in scouring and dehydrated dogs, cats and young farm animals. Indications DiarrhoeaDehydration (simple or associated with diseases such as canine parvovirus and feline panleucopaenia)Post travelling stress and dehydrationPost-surgical or disease convalescenceConcomitant treatment of viral or bacterial scours Directions for Use Add the contents of Section A and Section B of one Lectade sachet to 2 litres of warm water. Stir until dissolved. Feed the appropriate quantity of Lectade and store remainder in a cool place until next treatment is required. Prepare fresh Lectade solution daily.
