About Activated Charcoal Suspension

Vomiting, loose stools, acidity and gas are some of the most common reasons a animal needs a vet.

Activated Charcoal Suspension is an oral suspension from Intas that contains activated charcoal. Activated charcoal binds poisons and toxins in the gut.

It is used for suspected poisoning and some kinds of diarrhoea. Ask your vet whether it suits your animal, especially if your animal has a health condition or takes other medicines.

Key Ingredients

Ingredient	What it does
Activated charcoal	Binds toxins and poisons in the gut so they are passed out instead of absorbed.

Features and Benefits

Liquid form. Easy to measure for small pets and those who refuse tablets.

How It Works

Activated charcoal. Its huge surface area traps many toxins and chemicals in the gut, so the body absorbs less of them.

How to Use

Dose. Follow the dose on the pack or the amount your vet advises for your animal's weight.
Measuring. Shake well before each dose. Measure with a dosing syringe and give slowly into the side of the mouth.
Storage. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, unless the pack gives other storage directions. Keep out of reach of children.

Safety and Precautions

If you think your animal has eaten something poisonous, call your vet straight away. Charcoal works best given early.
It can bind other medicines given by mouth, so space them apart as your vet advises.
Stools will turn black. This is expected.
Tell your vet about any other medicines your animal takes, and if your animal is pregnant, nursing or has liver or kidney problems.
