What Farmco Recommends It For:

Ketol suits dairy and beef producers managing cattle prone to ketosis and milk fever. Plus, it’s a smart pick for sheep and goat producers tackling sleepy sickness or pregnancy toxaemia. Additionally, it works as a tonic for animals recovering from illness, calving, lambing, or other metabolic stress. So reach for it whenever your stock need a fast energy boost to bounce back.

Why It’s a Farmco Favourite:

Firstly, Ketol delivers a fast-acting liquid energy boost when stock need it most. Secondly, the formula elevates blood glucose and lowers ketone levels for quicker recovery. Plus, it doubles as a tonic for debility and convalescence. Furthermore, it’s backed by the trusted Elanco name in animal health. As a result, it’s a versatile, vet-recognised tool for any cattle, sheep, or goat enterprise.

Powerful Energy Support for Stock

Ketol from Elanco is an oral energy supplement with added minerals. Moreover, it’s developed for cattle, sheep, and goats facing metabolic challenges. Therefore, it’s particularly valuable around calving, lambing, and high-demand production periods. As a result, your stock get the support they need to keep performing.

Treatment and Prevention of Ketosis

Cows that go down with milk fever — especially with ketosis on top — need a quick return to milking. Fortunately, Ketol acts as a fast liquid energy hit to support recovery. Plus, it elevates blood glucose and depresses blood ketone levels at the same time. So affected cows can get back to the herd and the bail sooner.

Aid for Sleepy Sickness in Sheep and Goats

Sleepy sickness — also known as pregnancy toxaemia — hits late-pregnant ewes and does hard. Fortunately, Ketol helps treat and prevent it. Therefore, you can use it as part of a broader pregnancy management plan. As a result, your breeders and their unborn lambs or kids stay better supported.

How Ketol Works

Ketol elevates blood glucose and depresses blood ketone levels. Furthermore, it favours fat transport and utilisation. Plus, it accelerates metabolic function and increases food intake. As a result, animals recover faster and return to normal feeding sooner.

A Reliable Tonic for Debility and Convalescence

Sometimes stock need a general lift after illness, transport, or stressful events. So Ketol works well as a recovery tonic for cattle, sheep, goats, and their young. In turn, you can support the whole flock or herd through tough patches with one trusted product.

Easy to Administer

Ketol is for oral use only. So administer as a drench, or mix in drinking water or feed. Plus, it can be given directly or diluted up to 10 times with water in 3–4 divided doses daily. Therefore, you can match the dosing routine to the situation in front of you. As a result, the 2L pack suits a wide range of operations and is ready for planned or unexpected use.

NIL Withholding for Meat and Milk

Ketol carries a NIL withholding period for both meat and milk. So you can use it without disrupting your sale, processing, or milking schedule. As always, take due care during application and obtain expert advice where needed to avoid unnecessary pain and distress.

Ketol is brought to you by Elanco, a globally respected name in animal health. Moreover, Elanco’s products are built on decades of veterinary research and innovation. As a result, you’re using a metabolic support tool trusted by producers and vets worldwide.
