Ascorbic acid 12.5 g; Excip. q.s. 100 ml.
Ascorbic acid (Vitamin C - antiscorbutic vitamin) is a water-soluble vitamin of great importance to the
body. Its role in collagen formation makes VITACE useful for maintaining the integrity of epithelia and
vascular endothelia, fibrous tissue, cartilage, bone, teeth and wound healing. It is applicable in animals showing
spontaneous bleeding of the mucous membranes.
Vitace improves overall condition and promotes healthy bone development. It is also used in animals presenting
growth disorders. It plays an active role in immune activity, boosting the body's defenses. Vitace is applicable
in animals with fertility problems, being especially effective when
used together with Selenium and Vitamin E.
Due to its action on epithelia, Vitace helps prevent exercise-induced pulmonary bleeding, this effect being enhanced
when used together with Furosemide.
Administration of Vitace prevents and cures Vitamin C deficiency syndrome.
