NV Cophos B Injectable

Cophos B Injection – 100mL

Muscle buffer and energy support for performance horses in hard work.

Cophos B Injection is formulated to support muscle energy, buffering capacity, endurance and post-exercise recovery in performance horses undertaking strenuous training or competition.

Containing Ethanolamine Phosphate and Vitamin B12 (Cyanocobalamin), Cophos B provides readily available phosphate to support the increased metabolic demands placed on working muscles during intensive exercise.

Key Benefits

• Supports muscle energy production during hard work
• Supports normal muscular function
• Provides readily available phosphate
• Supports the body's natural buffering systems
• Supports oxygen utilisation by working muscles
• Helps support endurance and power output
• May help delay the onset of muscle fatigue
• Supports recovery following strenuous exercise
• Contains Vitamin B12 to support normal metabolic processes and appetite
• Formulated for performance horses in hard work

How Cophos B Works

Phosphate plays an important role in energy metabolism, muscle function and the body's natural buffering systems.

During strenuous aerobic and anaerobic exercise, the demand for phosphate increases. Because phosphate requirements must ultimately be met through dietary or supplemental sources, adequate availability is important for horses undertaking regular intensive exercise.

Phosphate is involved in the metabolic processes responsible for storing and releasing energy to working muscles. It also contributes to normal acid-base balance and oxygen delivery and utilisation during exercise.

By providing a readily available source of phosphate, Cophos B is designed to support muscular efficiency, endurance and recovery during periods of hard work.

Vitamin B12 Support

Cophos B also provides Cyanocobalamin (Vitamin B12), which contributes to normal metabolic processes and supports energy metabolism and appetite.

Each mL contains:

Ethanolamine Phosphate – 100mg/mL

Important Information

Injectable veterinary product. Use only in accordance with the product label and veterinary advice.

Correct injection technique, dosage and route of administration are important. Intravenous administration should only be undertaken by, or under the direct supervision of, a veterinarian.

For performance and competition horses, check all applicable prohibited-substance, medication-control and withholding requirements with the relevant racing or equestrian governing body before administration.

If a horse is experiencing persistent fatigue, poor performance, muscle soreness, weakness or prolonged recovery following exercise, veterinary assessment is recommended.
