Calf diarrhea or scours continues to be a major health problem in calves less than 2 months of age (NAHMS Dairy Study). When treating calves with diarrhea, the use of oral rehydration products are an important tool for calf raisers. BlueLite® Replenishᴹ is the first liquid, buffered calf electrolyte on the market formulated for the severely dehydrated calf. Providing oral rehydration with better alkalinizing agents, to normalize blood pH better than sodium bicarbonate.
