Catosal 10% 100ML Injection

Catosal injection is a sterile metabolic tonic from Elanco that combines butaphosphan, an organic phosphorus compound, with cyanocobalamin (vitamin B12) to stimulate metabolism and support recovery in cattle. Each millilitre supplies 100 mg of butaphosphan — which provides 17.3 mg of readily usable phosphorus — together with 0.05 mg (50 µg) of vitamin B12, making it a reliable source of phosphorus and B12 for animals under metabolic stress, in convalescence, or showing signs of debility.

What are the active ingredients in Catosal injection?

What is Catosal injection used for?

Catosal is used to stimulate metabolism and to prevent or correct deficiencies of phosphorus and vitamin B12. Veterinarians and animal owners reach for it during periods of high physical demand, poor appetite, slow recovery after illness, and general weakness. The “10%” in Catosal 10% refers to its butaphosphan concentration of 100 mg/mL. Butaphosphan favourably influences a wide range of the body’s assimilatory and energy-producing processes, while vitamin B12 supports protein, carbohydrate and fat metabolism as well as the formation of red blood cells. Together they act as a non-hormonal tonic, or roborant, that helps animals hold condition and recover from stress.

How is Catosal injection given?

Catosal injection is given by  intravenous (into the vein) injection, using standard aseptic technique. As a general guide, cattle commonly receive 10–25 mL, repeated daily until recovery. Single volumes greater than 10 mL should be divided and injected at separate sites. Always follow the directions on the product insert and consult your veterinarian before use.

Which animals can receive this tonic?

Catosal injection is suitable for a wide range of farm including cattle. dairy cows around calving, and young or debilitated animals that need a metabolic boost.

Is Catosal a steroid or hormone?

No. It is a non-hormonal, non-steroidal metabolic tonic based on phosphorus and vitamin B12, supporting the body’s own metabolic processes rather than acting as a hormone.
