I know it is suppose to taste better but I am more concerned with the effectiveness.
The ingredients of the Calsorb says
170 mg per ml of calcium in a gel base
The Oral Cal Plus says:
Calcium Carbonate, Miglyol, Silicon Dioxide, Natural Flavors, Alpha Tocopheryl Acetate (source of Vitamin E), Magnesium Sulfate, Vitamin A Acetate, Vitamin D Supplement.
I can find where it says how much calcium is in the Oral Cal Plus. I wonder if it might be best to have both on hand for an emergency. |
It is just as effective. What is different is that it doesn't make your bitch vomit (how effective can that be if she isn't ingesting it) ....it tastes like malt. I spoke to the vet on duty at Revival; who highly recommeded it. I recently had some sent to a friend of mine in Las Vegas; she had been using CalSorb on an eclamptic bitch; she'd vomit everytime she gave it to her. Anytime her girl began exhibiting wierd signs she administered the Oral Cal Plus and it kept it at bay.
