Electro-G – hi-performance electrolyte supplement.
Supplies rapid energy and corrects dehydration.
When you’re time-poor, and you want to give your calves their best possible defence against dehydration, Electro-G is the answer... it's a wonderful rehydration solution for sick calves.
Electro-G not only mixes easily in warm water, this highly palatable, powdered electrolyte offers an immediate energy source, with alkalising levels that correct acidosis.
Electro-G is safe to be fed directly before or after milk – rather than having to wait the historic two to three hours. Why? Because Electro-G doesn’t contain sodium bicarbonate, which can inhibit the formation of casein in the abomasum.
Calves need energy and protein to maintain their weight and immune system when they are sick. So, it’s important to continue to feed milk (in a separate feed), while supporting their recovery with high-spec electrolytes.
Make sure your calves have everything they need to support their growth and development. Electro-G:
- Supplies rapid energy
- Corrects dehydration
- Restores sodium levels
- Improves protein utilisation
- Restores intracellular potassium levels

ACTIVE CONSTITUENTS
- Dextrose: Efficiently replenishes blood glucose levels to correct hypoglycaemia and stimulates electrolyte and water assimilation.
- Sodium Acetate: Rapidly metabolised, it gives an immediate energy hit (sodium bicarbonate doesn’t) and it has adequate alkalising levels to correct acidosis without inhibiting milk clotting. Acetates can facilitate sodium and water absorption in the calf’s small intestine. It also inhibits the growth of Salmonella species.
- Sodium Chloride: Restores sodium and is a major factor in the assimilation of water to effectively correct dehydration.
- Glycine: Promotes intestinal absorption of water and sodium, and it is a non-essential amino acid, which is used to transport energy to the calf.
- Potassium Chloride: Restores normal intracellular potassium levels to correct hypokalaemia (low potassium in the bloodstream).
Electro-G electrolyte flyerDIRECTIONS
CALVES:
Prepare the solution by mixing 100g (2 measures) of Electro G per two litres of warm water immediately before use.
Administer 2 litres of Electro G solution to each calf twice daily for the first two days. Feed the Electro G solution as extra meals while still feeding milk or milk replacer.
If the animal refuses milk, feed the Electro G solution and resume feeding the milk or milk replacer at the next scheduled feeding. On the third and fourth days administer a mixture of one litre of Electro G solution with one litre of milk or milk replacer.
Resume normal feeding and there on.
LAMBS & PIGLETS:
Feed as above at one quarter of the dosage.
STORE IN A COOL, DARK, DRY PLACE.
