Hozom DS (Vet)

Hozom DS (Vet) is a veterinary medication typically used for the treatment and management of digestive disorders, particularly in livestock and poultry. It is commonly formulated to treat conditions like diarrhea, gastrointestinal infections, and intestinal dysbiosis (imbalance of gut bacteria). The product often combines a blend of antidiarrheal agents, probiotics, and electrolytes, which work together to manage digestive issues, restore balance in the gut, and promote overall gastrointestinal health.

Here’s a typical description of the product:

Active Ingredients:

• Antidiarrheal Agents: These help to reduce the frequency and severity of diarrhea by slowing down intestinal motility and promoting absorption of fluids, thereby preventing dehydration.
• Probiotics (e.g., Lactobacillus, Saccharomyces boulardii): These beneficial bacteria help restore the balance of the gut microbiota, aiding in the recovery of the digestive system and improving nutrient absorption.
• Electrolytes (e.g., Sodium, Potassium, Chloride): Essential for rehydration, these help restore fluid balance lost due to diarrhea or gastrointestinal upset.
• Vitamins & Minerals: Certain formulations may include important nutrients like Zinc, Magnesium, and Vitamin B Complex, which help support the immune system, improve digestive function, and promote overall health.

Formulation: Oral suspension or powder (depending on the product variant)

Package Size: Typically available in 50ml, 100ml, or 250ml bottles or packs.

Indications:

• Diarrhea and Gastrointestinal Disorders: Hozom DS is commonly used to treat animals with diarrhea caused by infections, dietary changes, or stress.
• Intestinal Health Support: Aids in the restoration of gut flora and balance, especially after antibiotics or infections that disrupt the digestive system.
• Rehydration and Electrolyte Support: Helps prevent dehydration by replenishing electrolytes lost due to gastrointestinal upset.
• Gut Flora Restoration: Restores a healthy balance of microorganisms in the intestines, improving digestion and nutrient absorption.
• Post-Infection Recovery: Beneficial for animals recovering from digestive infections or illnesses, providing nutritional and hydration support.

Dosage & Administration:

• Recommended Dosage: The usual dosage for Hozom DS is 5-10 ml per 10 kg of body weight for livestock, 1-2 ml per kg of body weight for poultry, and adjusted dosages for smaller animals, depending on the severity of the condition.
  • For Livestock: The product can be administered orally, either directly or mixed with feed or drinking water, depending on the animal’s size and condition.
  • For Poultry: The suspension can be mixed with drinking water or given directly to birds.
  • For Pets: The product is often given directly or mixed with food. Exact dosage should be confirmed by a veterinarian based on the animal’s weight and condition.
• Frequency: Typically administered 2-3 times per day until symptoms improve, but the veterinarian may adjust the frequency and duration based on the severity of the condition.

Precautions:

• Veterinary Consultation: It is always important to consult with a veterinarian before using Hozom DS to ensure the proper diagnosis and dosage for the specific condition and species.
• Hydration: Ensure animals have access to clean, fresh water at all times, especially when dealing with gastrointestinal disturbances like diarrhea.
• Monitor for Side Effects: Though rare, observe for any signs of adverse reactions such as lethargy, decreased appetite, or unusual behavior, and contact a veterinarian if needed.
• Not for Use in All Animals: Should not be used in animals with certain pre-existing health conditions, such as severe kidney or liver disease, unless specifically recommended by a veterinarian.

Storage:

• Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture.
• Ensure the container is tightly sealed after each use to maintain the product’s effectiveness.
• Keep out of reach of children and animals to prevent accidental ingestion.

Side Effects:

• Rare Side Effects: Generally well-tolerated, but in rare cases, some animals may experience mild digestive upset (e.g., bloating, constipation) as their gut adjusts to the product.
• Allergic Reactions: If signs of an allergic reaction occur (such as swelling, difficulty breathing, or skin rashes), discontinue use immediately and consult a veterinarian.

Hozom DS (Vet) is an effective treatment for managing digestive issues in animals, especially in cases of diarrhea or gastrointestinal imbalance. By combining antidiarrheal, probiotic, and electrolyte components, it helps to support gut health, restore fluid balance, and improve overall digestion. Always follow the recommended dosage and consult a veterinarian for specific guidance.
