L-Carnitine injection by CEVA is a veterinary amino-acid solution containing L-Carnitine at 200 mg/mL, used to support energy production and muscular performance in horses and camels. It works by helping transport fatty acids into muscle cells, where they are burned for energy — sparing glycogen, delaying lactic acid build-up and helping athletic animals work harder for longer. It is supplied as a sterile 100 mL injectable vial for intramuscular (IM) use.
What is the active ingredient in CEVA L-Carnitine injection?
Each millilitre contains 200 mg of L-Carnitine. L-Carnitine is a naturally occurring amino-acid derivative that is essential for moving fatty acids into muscle-cell mitochondria for energy production.
What is L-Carnitine injection used for?
It is used as a performance and recovery aid in equine and camel. L-Carnitine is the amino acid that forms the transport system moving long-chain fatty acids into the mitochondria — the energy “furnaces” inside muscle cells — where they are converted into usable energy. Because muscle L-Carnitine levels help determine the exercise capacity of muscles, supplementing hard-working animals can improve energy supply, increase the use of fat as fuel and reduce reliance on glycogen. The result is delayed fatigue, smoother recovery and greater capacity for sustained or fast work. This role in mitochondrial fatty-acid oxidation is well documented in nutritional science.
Key benefits of CEVA L-Carnitine injection
- Supports energy production: Helps transport fats into muscle cells for efficient ATP energy generation.
- Spares glycogen: By using fat as fuel, the body conserves limited glycogen stores during exercise.
- Delays lactic acid build-up: Buffering lactic acid helps postpone the onset of muscle fatigue.
- Supports recovery: Performance horses and camels may recover more efficiently between efforts.
- High concentration: 200 mg/mL of L-Carnitine in a convenient 100 mL multi-dose vial.
- Versatile species use: Formulated for horses and camels under veterinary direction.
How is L-Carnitine injection given to horses and camels?
It is administered by intramuscular (IM) injection. Always follow the product label and the directions of your veterinarian. The manufacturer’s dosing guidance is summarised below.
- الخيول: 3 mL per 100 kg bodyweight (about 15 mL for a 500 kg horse) by IM injection, twice weekly. Give the final dose 4–6 hours before hard or fast work.
- الجمال By IM injection — 5 mL for small camels (higayg, ligaya and iddah) and 10–15 mL for larger camels (thanayah, howl and gilesa).
Use the contents of the vial within 3 months of first broaching and discard any unused portion. Store below 25 °C, protect from light, and keep out of reach of children. As with any injectable, use clean technique and consult your veterinarian before starting, particularly for animals competing under anti-doping or racing regulations. Full label details are available from the manufacturer, CEVA.
Which animals is L-Carnitine injection suitable for?
This product is formulated for horses and camels. and is popular with performance and racing animals that have high energy demands. Always use it under veterinary supervision.
How often is it given to horses?
The label recommends IM injection twice weekly at 3 mL per 100 kg bodyweight (around 15 mL for a 500 kg horse), with the final dose given 4–6 hours before hard or fast work. Your veterinarian may adjust this.
Can this injection be used before a race or competition?
The manufacturer suggests timing the final dose 4–6 hours before hard work to build high blood levels. Before competing, always confirm compliance with the relevant racing or equestrian anti-doping rules and consult your veterinarian.
How should the vial be stored?
Store below 25 °C and protect from light. Use the contents within 3 months of first broaching and discard any unused portion.
