Boostin® Plus MSD

Boostin® Plus

Boostin® Plus is a long-acting injectable formulation of bovine somatotropin designed to increase milk production in well-nourished and properly managed dairy cows from peak lactation until drying off.

This product enhances the efficiency of milk production by increasing the volume of milk produced without altering its normal composition. Additionally, Boostin® Plus improves feed efficiency, allowing dairy cows to utilize nutrients more effectively for milk production. Bovine somatotropin is a natural protein produced by the pituitary gland that promotes the utilization of nutrient energy for enhanced milk yield.

COMPOSITION

Each 2 g cartridge contains 500 mg of recombinant bovine somatotropin.
