Use this Vetameg injectable for livestock, especially horses dealing with lameness, colic or inflammation, as well as cattle struggling with endotoxemia inflammation, pyrexia, bovine respiratory disease and acute bovine mastitis.How it Works

Flunixin meglumine is used to relieve pain and inflammation in horses and cattle and for its antipyretic properties. Vetameg injectable is a part of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory class of drugs (NSAIDs). Flunixin persists in inflammatory tissues and is associated with anti-inflammatory properties which extend well beyond the period associated with detectable plasma drug concentration.
