About Alembic Sharkoferrol Pet Syrup

A pet who seems tired, eats poorly or is recovering from illness, ticks or worms may need extra support to rebuild red blood cells. Your vet may suggest an iron tonic while the cause is treated.

Sharkoferrol Pet is an iron and vitamin tonic for dogs and cats from Alembic. It provides ferric ammonium citrate (an iron source) with calcium gluconate, vitamin B12, vitamin D3, biotin and copper.

It is listed for dogs and cats of all ages. It supports haemoglobin and red blood cell production in nutritional anaemia, as well as appetite, energy and growth.
