VetD3 Nano Shots — nano-emulsified vitamin D3 supplement for dogs and cats

VetD3 Nano Shots — Nano-Emulsified Vitamin D3 Supplement

VetD3 Nano Shots is a nano-emulsified vitamin D3 supplement formulated for dogs and cats to support calcium–phosphorus homeostasis, skeletal development, and bone mineralisation when used under veterinary supervision.

Nano-Emulsified for Better Absorption Clinic-Driven Dosing Only

Physiological Role & Clinical Rationale

Vitamin D plays a central endocrine role in maintaining calcium and phosphorus balance in dogs and cats. Unlike humans, companion animals rely almost entirely on dietary sources of vitamin D, as cutaneous synthesis is negligible.

Key Functions

  • Regulates intestinal absorption of calcium and phosphorus
  • Supports mineralisation of growing and remodelling bone
  • Contributes to neuromuscular transmission and muscle function
  • Plays a role in parathyroid hormone regulation

Why Nano-Emulsified Formulation?

Vitamin D is fat-soluble with variable absorption. Nano-emulsification creates smaller droplets for improved dispersion and more predictable uptake — especially useful in animals with compromised digestion or fat absorption.

Primary Indications

  • Growth phases in puppies and kittens with increased skeletal demand
  • Orthopaedic recovery, fracture healing, and bone remodelling
  • Documented or suspected dietary vitamin D insufficiency
  • Supportive therapy where calcium–phosphorus balance is clinically relevant

CRITICAL SAFETY NOTE

Vitamin D has a narrow therapeutic margin. Excess intake may lead to hypercalcaemia and soft tissue mineralisation.

Use strictly under veterinary guidance with appropriate monitoring.

Composition & Pack

  • Nano-emulsified Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol)
  • High-bioavailability oral solution

Pack size: Multi-dose bottle (clinic dispensing)
