CHEMVET Paraffin Oil
(Heavy)
Composition:
Paraffin oil 100%
Properties & indications:
- CHEMVET Paraffin Oil is a mineral oil used as a laxative that improves the bowel transit. In contrast to other oils (e.g. vegetable oil), paraffin oil is not digested, and therefore it does not slow down the emptying of the stomach. This increases its effectiveness with respect to other oil-based remedies.
- CHEMVET Paraffin Oil is indicated as an aid in the treatment of intestinal constipation and bloat in horses, cattle, camels, sheep, goats, dogs and cats.
- CHEMVET Paraffin Oil can also be used to treat hairballs in cats and dogs as it binds hairs enabling them to be passed through the digestive system and excreted.

- (Administer orally by drenching bottle or by stomach tube. If necessary, repeat treatment after 12 hours).
