Paraffin Oil

Mineral Oil Digestive Lubricant

Vetsense Paraffin Oil is a mineral oil most commonly used in horses to help with digestive problems.

Designed to act as a gut lubricant, helping manure and sand pass more easily through the digestive tract.

How It Works

Paraffin oil is not absorbed by animal cells or tissue, so it acts as a lubricant, allowing manure and sand to be more easily excreted.

Composition

Active constituent: liquid paraffin oil, a mineral oil produced as a by-product of petroleum distillation. It is a transparent, colourless, odourless and tasteless oil, mainly composed of heavier alkanes. It is not soluble in water and has low reactivity.
