Dosage:
The ideal dosage can vary depending on the size and specific needs of your pig (100-900mg/kg feed), but if you are concerned about a deficiency (such as with conditions like parakeratosis), or your pig is on a diet but you want to ensure they are getting adequate vitamin intake, 25-50 mg tablets, one per day, make a safe daily additive to support good health. If you ever have concerns or your pig’s condition worsens, be sure to consult with a veterinarian.

For the love of pigs!
