Pharmacological Action
Ferrocyl provides essential trace minerals that are vital for haemoglobin synthesis and red blood cell formation.
-
Iron (Ferric Chloride): Restores haemoglobin levels, improves oxygen transport, and combats fatigue.
-
Copper (Copper Gluconate): Enhances iron metabolism and aids enzyme activation.
-
Sodium Cacodylate: Acts as a metabolic stimulant and supports red cell regeneration.
Together, these components accelerate recovery from anaemia, enhance vitality, and optimize performance in racing and working animals.
