Virbac Recharge for Horses

Liquid Electrolyte & Glucose Supplement

Virbac Recharge for Horses is the "sports drink" for horses – a highly palatable, apple-flavoured liquid combining concentrated electrolytes and glucose to support rapid rehydration after sweating, travelling and exercise.

Designed for performance horses, travelling horses and horses experiencing significant sweat loss, Recharge supports hydration and electrolyte balance before, during and after periods of increased physical demand.

Supplied as a liquid in 1 L and 5 L sizes, it can be diluted in drinking water or given orally over the tongue according to label directions.

Electrolyte & Hydration Support

Horses can lose substantial quantities of electrolytes and fluid through sweat, particularly during strenuous exercise, prolonged travelling and hot or humid conditions. Recharge provides concentrated electrolytes to support:

• Normal hydration and body fluid balance
• Replacement of electrolytes lost through sweating
• Normal muscle and nerve function
• Temperature regulation
• Normal cardiovascular function
• Exercise and travel recovery

Encourages Fluid Intake

Recharge is formulated to help stimulate the horse's natural thirst response, encouraging increased water consumption after exercise, sweating or travelling.

Added Glucose

Recharge contains glucose to provide a readily available energy source while supporting intestinal absorption of electrolytes and water, making it a convenient oral rehydration supplement for hardworking horses.
