Potent vasodilator to increase blood flow to cardiac and skeletal muscle
COMPOSITION
Adenosine-5-monophosphate 200 mg/mL
ACTIONS
AMP-5 is a potent natural vasodilator which produces a marked increase in blood circulation to both skeletal and cardiac muscle.
- AMP-5 increases blood, nutrient & available energy supply to muscle tissues.
- Vasodilation improves removal of wastes to delay fatigue and cramping.
- AMP-5 may help prevent heart strain during and after strenuous exercise.
- AMP-5 is particularly effective combined with CREATINE, TRIPART and / or COPHOS B.
By producing a marked increase in blood supply to muscles and heart, AMP-5 increases the oxygen and essential nutrient supply to these areas during hard work, and improves the efficiency of removal of waste products such as lactic acid, to delay the onset of muscle fatigue. AMP-5 is of value in treatment and prevention of Tying Up for these reasons. Because of its potent vasodilation effect on cardiac muscles, AMP-5 is effective in treatment and prevention of heart strain and exercise induced “T Wave” changes in horses.
INDICATIONS
Production of coronary vasodilation in anticipation of severe cardiac load in athletic animals or in treatment of myocardial oxygen deficit (as evidenced by performance linked ECG changes).
Muscle cramp, 'tying up' prevention.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION
Use the contents of the vial within 28 days of initially broaching the vial and discard any unused portion.
Injection: Give Horses 2.5mL per 100 kg bodyweight by intramuscular injection only, 24 hours and again 4-6 hours before hard work.
CAUTION: |
---|
AMP-5 must ONLY be administered by intramuscular injection, or paste formulation. Do not administer AMP-5 injection by the intravenous route under any circumstances. This may lead to a profound rapid drop in blood pressure, with collapse, and even death. |
PRESENTATION
