Magniject Number 9 for staggers. It's still available.

It's the combined calc/mag/dex bottle that's no longer available.

The old 20% had both ca and mg so covered both bases, we refusing the. 40% number 5 at half rate just wondered if there was a better product available to replace the old number 6.

Number 5 is what the vet recommended. Went to the ag merchant and asked for a bottle, but the Proper Person to Sell PMLs had a wibble about its use in sheeps, poor love. We ended up buying from the Vet.

I’ve only ever used No5, even when you could buy the red top.

Always have a bottle of Magniject in the cupboard too, but very rarely used it.
