II. Pharmacological properties
7. Glucodiox refers to a group of products containing calcium, phosphorus, magnesium and boron.
The effect of the drug is determined by the effect of the constituent components.
Calcium is involved in the formation of bone tissue (prevents the risk of rickets and osteodystrophy), blood clotting, in the regulation of nerve conduction and muscle contraction, in maintaining stable cardiac activity. It has a restorative, antitoxic effect.
Phosphorus is a constituent element of bone tissue, nucleoproteins and phospholipids. He takes part in all the processes of assimilation in the animal’s body, positively affects the metabolism in the tissues of the body.
Magnesium participates in the metabolism of phosphorus and carbohydrates as a coenzyme. When parenteral administration blocks neuromuscular transmission and prevents the development of seizures.
Boron improves the skeletal system and bone tissue structure, promotes the maintenance and stimulation of the protein synthesis process and promotes the correct exchange of nucleic acids.
Boron participates in the work of the central nervous system, promotes an increase in the level of estrogen and testosterone, which, in turn, has a favorable effect on the growth of muscle mass, improves the metabolism of carbohydrates and fats in the body, participates in all occurring enzymatic processes, enhances insulin’s ability to lower the sugar level in blood.
Boron is necessary for the normal exchange of phosphorus and fluorine, calcium, magnesium. It is also of great importance for the conversion of vitamin D.
Active ingredients Glucodiox are in physiological ratio,
well and quickly absorbed by parenteral administration.
According to the degree of exposure to the body, Glucodioxs according to GOST 12.1.007-76 refers to substances that are not very dangerous (hazard class 4).
III. The order of application
8. Glucodioks are used in a complex of measures for the purpose of treatment and prevention of diseases of farm animals with:
(during pregnancy, lactation, during transportation, grazing and
etc.);
paresis, caused by a lack of calcium and phosphorus; metabolic disorders of calcium, phosphorus, magnesium (rickets, osteodystrophy, osteomalacia, etc.);
poisoning with lead, fluorine, oxalic acid (as an additional remedy for complex treatment);
toxicoses, allergies (urticaria, serum sickness, etc.)
to increase growth and weight gain in young animals of farm animals.
9. Glucodiox is contraindicated in hypercalcemia, acidosis, severe renal dysfunction, atrial fibrillation, increased sensitivity to the components of the drug. It is not recommended to prescribe simultaneously with digitalis preparations, vitamin D and its analogues.
