Vitamin video
The drug “Hemobalance” is widely used in veterinary medicine. It is a combination of vitamins and amino acids. Used to treat and prevent diseases in cats.
Hemobalance looks like a colorless liquid with an amber tint. Packaged in sterile glass containers with a volume of 5, 100, 500 ml. also have a protective aluminum cap, which eliminates the possibility of introducing germs.
Each substance included in the composition enhances the effect of other components and has a positive effect on the animal’s body. The composition compensates for the lack of vitamins in cats.
Main active substances
L-lysine hydrochloride
–
an amino acid responsible for the creation of bone tissue and the absorption of phosphorus and calcium.
Also promotes the formation of red blood cells. A deficiency of this amino acid in the body causes fatigue, anemia, decreased concentration and disorders of the reproductive system.
DL methionine is an amino acid that promotes metabolism.
Synthesizes tissue proteins, hormones, enzymes. Lack of methionine contributes to loss of appetite, muscle atrophy and impaired kidney function.
Glycine
responsible for good memory and emotional balance.
Biotin
takes part in metabolic processes.
Cobalt sulfate synthesizes hemoglobin and participates in metabolic processes.
Helps remove fluid from the body and produces thyroid hormones. In case of cobalt deficiency, anemia, loss of appetite, exhaustion and deterioration in the appearance of the coat occurs.
Vitamin B2 promotes growth, development, improves immunity
.
A lack of vitamin can be identified by such signs as: hair loss, rare breathing and slow pulse, decreased body temperature, and malaise. This also affects the condition of the cat’s eyes and skin: clouding of the cornea, cracks. Kittens with a lack of vitamin B2 are developmentally delayed.
Vitamin B6 supports the functioning of the nervous system.
Its deficiency can cause delays in growth and development in kittens. If an adult cat does not receive the required amount of vitamin with food, then it may develop seizures and various skin diseases.
Vitamin B4 (choline)
necessary for animals to prevent fatty liver.
Vitamin B8 is needed for fat metabolism.
A lack of vitamin can lead to increased cholesterol levels, general weakness and cramps in the paws. Hair problems are also possible.
B12 is necessary for the maturation of red blood cells and the formation of antibodies.
A lack of this vitamin will lead to decreased fertility in cats and the birth of weak kittens. A rough cat with developed dermatitis, poor appetite, and gas formation are the first symptoms. In more advanced cases, disorders such as paralysis, poor coordination and unsteady gait may develop.
Indications for use
Hemobalance has a wide range of applications:
- Using the drug during pregnancy will improve stamina and prepare the cat for the upcoming birth. The cat will recover faster, and the kittens will develop better;
- Hemobalance can prevent the appearance and development of most diseases associated with a lack of vitamins, as well as prolong the activity, endurance and youth of your pet;
- Prescribed in conjunction with other medications for recovery after major operations.
- Able to eliminate side effects from the use of other medications;
- Recommended for use if the animal is exposed to increased stress;
- Anemia and blood loss;

Owner reviews
Christian: “Great medicine. There are no side effects, but it works like a charm. Injected my dog to get in shape before shows and during intense training. A friend of mine, with the help of Hemobalance, delivered a one-week-old ambulant puppy - it was lagging behind in development.”
Irina: “I have a hunting, working dog, so Hemobalance is always in stock. Previously, at extras, the pet was nervous and lost her appetite. When they started injecting the solution, she was unrecognizable: she behaved calmly, ate well, no hassle. The drug also helped the dog recover when it fell ill with piroplasmosis: it recovered quickly. It’s not convenient that you need to give injections: I’ve already gotten the hang of it, but if you don’t know how to give them, you’ll have to go to the veterinary clinic.”
Danil: “My Corso has developed demodicosis. We carried out general treatment, but when Hemobalance was added, the condition began to improve faster. Wool appeared even where it had not grown before. The dog had no side effects, but this is individual: a veterinarian’s consultation is needed.”
Composition and release form
Hemobalance is available in the form of an injection solution. The dark brown liquid should be clear. The presence of impurities or cloudiness is a signal that the medicine cannot be used for the treatment or prevention of animals. The solution is packaged in glass bottles closed with rubber stoppers. Their volume can be different: from 5 to 500 ml. For dogs, you should choose small packages.
The biostimulating effect of the drug is due to the active components:
- DL-methionine. An amino acid that takes part in the production of hormones, enzymes, proteins and vitamins. A lack of this substance in the body can negatively affect the development and growth of puppies, lead to fatty liver and disruption of its function.
- Glycine. The amino acid has a positive effect on the nervous system, has a calming effect, helps cope with stress, and reduces aggression.
- L-lysine hydrochloride. The amino acid promotes better absorption of calcium, necessary for the growth and development of bones, stabilizes the functioning of the heart muscle, helps prevent anemia, and is involved in other processes. Its lack can cause problems with the reproductive system and rapid fatigue.
- Cobalt sulfate. Participates in the process of hematopoiesis. Lack of the substance leads to lack of appetite, anemia, and apathy.
- Copper sulfate. It is a participant in the synthesis of enzymes, stimulates growth and restores metabolism. Charges the body with the necessary energy.
- Ammonium Iron Quote. Participates in the production of hemoglobin. A small amount of the substance in the body provokes the development of iron deficiency anemia.
- Nicotinamide. Helps replenish the supply of vitamins PP. Participates in metabolic processes, promotes the absorption of proteins, fats, amino acids, and has an anti-allergenic effect.
Hemobalance also includes a complex of vitamins:
- riboflavin (B2);
- biotin (H);
- inositol (B8);
- choline bitartrate (B4);
- pyridoxine hydrochloride (B6);
- D-panthenol.

Reviews from veterinarians
Andrey, veterinarian with 6 years of experience
An effective but painful drug. Often, small lumps appear at the injection point, but they go away on their own and do not require medical intervention. Prescribed for kittens with developmental delays. Helps in most cases, but there are exceptions. An effective drug for use in combination with other medications.
Nikita Alekseevich, veterinarian with 13 years of experience
Hemobalance is a good vitamin complex. I constantly use it in practice. I didn't find any side effects.
Contraindications and side effects
Of course, the first thing that worries any person when using a particular drug is the possible complications from its use. Of course, this issue will also be relevant for responsible cat owners, so before injecting “Hemobalance” into your pet, it is worth assessing the likelihood of allergic reactions as a result of the individual sensitivity of his body to the constituent components of this medication. There are no other serious contraindications to the use of the composition in the instructions.
Signs of an allergic reaction in a cat: sneezing, watery eyes, hair loss, dandruff.
In any case, if you notice any deviations in your pet’s well-being or behavior while using Hemobalance, you should stop using it before consulting a veterinarian. It is likely that in your particular case it is better to find an alternative version of such a drug.
Did you know? Biologically, a cat’s brain is much closer to a human’s than the same organ in dogs. The same areas as in humans are responsible for the expression of emotions in these small predators.
Rules for storage and use
The drug does not lose its pharmacological properties only if stored correctly:
- The storage place should be away from direct ultraviolet rays, as well as heat sources (batteries, heaters, stoves, etc.).
- The air temperature should be 4−25˚C.
- The solution should not be frozen.
Do not use the medication to treat dogs after the expiration date (indicated on the package). If the seal of the bottle is broken, the solution should be discarded.
When using the drug, it is necessary to follow the general rules and safety measures when working with veterinary medicinal products. In people with hypersensitivity, the medicine may cause allergies. It is advisable to avoid direct contact.
Purpose
The components included in the drug quickly restore and normalize systems and organs. That is why this drug has a very wide range of indications.
Restoration of the body
Dogs usually take a long time to recover from operations and infectious diseases. To speed up and facilitate this process, it is recommended to pierce the Hemobalance along with medications prescribed by the veterinarian. It provides the body with additional energy, helps to recover faster and eliminates the side effects of taking medications.
Therefore, it can be used during stressful events in your pet's life, such as:
- Exhibitions;
- course of vaccinations;
- competitions;
- change of diet.
Increased loads
Service, hunting and sled dogs require special care. To do their work, they sometimes have to spend all their strength. This also applies to animals that work in harsh climates, during natural disasters or in stressful environments. These four-legged animals, in addition to physical fatigue, are accompanied by nervous overload. Such dogs can be injected with Hemobalance on a regular basis to maintain optimal shape and performance.
Treatment of injuries
The complex normalizes tissue trophism, accelerates the regeneration of bones, muscles and skin. Therefore, Hemobalance can be used to heal injuries and dermatitis. Due to the complex effect of vitamins, the dog’s appearance improves, it becomes thicker and more beautiful.
Pregnancy and lactation
The drug increases the endurance of pregnant dogs. Thanks to this, they endure childbirth easier and recover faster. Taking a vitamin complex during pregnancy promotes the appearance of strong and healthy puppies. And the young mother still has enough strength to take care of them. During the feeding period, Hemobalance is injected to improve the quality and increase the quantity of milk. Difficulties with lactation do not arise, even if the offspring is large.
Anemia and vitamin deficiency
The drug successfully copes with anemia. It is also indispensable in the treatment of vitamin deficiencies. Hemobalance helps compensate for the lack of microelements in the diet. It heals weak and exhausted animals. Quickly restores health in case of massive blood loss after surgery or injury.
Liver and kidney diseases
Since the complex has a beneficial effect on the functioning of these organs, it is prescribed for poisoning, nephritis and hepatitis, as well as for the prevention of these diseases.
Prevention
Dogs' lives go by at an accelerated pace, and fatigue makes itself felt over the years. Yesterday's mischievous puppy can turn into a slow dog who needs more and more time to rest and recuperate.
In order for your dog to remain young and playful for as long as possible, it is important to take care of its health from an early age. Hemobalance will provide your four-legged friend with all the necessary nutrients and prevent the occurrence of many diseases
Reviews
Mikhail, Moscow
This complex has helped me out more than once when my pets were sick. I myself worked as a veterinarian and I can definitely say that Hemobalance significantly speeds up the recovery of animals after operations and severe inflammation. It can be used together with other medications in the treatment of demodicosis, anemia, and toxicosis during pregnancy. The product is wonderful. But it has one drawback - very painful injections, after which the lumps do not dissolve for quite a long time. I would advise injecting the drug intravenously or using IVs.
Alisa, Krasnodar
I always keep Hemobalance in the refrigerator. I tried it for the first time when I was treating a dog for hair loss. Then the vet diagnosed us with dermatophytosis. The disease itself was treated with other means, and Hemobalance began to be injected already at the recovery stage. I really liked that the dog quickly returned to normal. They began to give it before all exhibitions and competitions. Previously, at such moments she would get nervous and have problems with her appetite. And now he behaves completely differently. The only pity is that the drug must be injected; it is not always convenient for ourselves. Well, its price is quite high. But it always helps, and it’s worth a lot.
Analogues of Hemobalance
Despite the fact that domestic and foreign pharmaceutical companies offer consumers a wide range of vitamin and mineral complexes, it is impossible to find a complete structural analogue of Hemobalance among these drugs. Therefore, if the drug is not available on pharmacy shelves or due to the presence of contraindications to its use, cat owners turn to veterinary drugs with a similar therapeutic effect - functional analogues of Hemobalance.
Functional analogues of the drug:
- Gamavit;
- Duphalight;
- Vittri-1;
- Polydex Gelabon with glucosamine;
- Katozal.
All of the above multivitamin complexes are not interchangeable drugs, since each of them has a number of contraindications and side effects. Even though they are available without a prescription, only a veterinarian can decide whether to replace one product with another.

Personally, I have never had to use various kinds of multivitamin complexes for my cat, including Hemobalance. But my mother regularly uses Catozal as a prophylactic for broiler chickens. She dilutes the drug in water and feeds the resulting medicine to the bird. She has been using this drug for more than five years. There were no side effects during this time. As she says, the quality of the drug fully justifies its rather high cost.

Gamavit can be used for both prevention and therapy. Injections with Duphalight can be prescribed to a cat for the prevention and treatment of vitamin deficiency Vittri-1 contains vitamins A, D, E
Catozal is prescribed to cats to increase immunity. Medical science has not identified any adverse reactions after the use of Polydexa Gelabona.
Adverse reactions
Usually Hemobalance does not cause unwanted effects even with long-term use. However, allergic reactions are possible if the dog initially had hypersensitivity to the components of the vitamin complex. During the drip or after the first injection, it is necessary to monitor the pet’s condition. Signs of allergies are:
- swelling of the muzzle;
- labored breathing;
- loss of appetite;
- lethargy;
- inability to respond to the owner's commands.
If the dog does have an allergic reaction, Diphenhydramine or Suprastin should be administered intramuscularly. For mild side effects, an antihistamine can be given in tablet form (Diprazine, Suprastin, Diazolin). In the case when the allergic reaction turns into anaphylactic shock, it is better to give an intramuscular injection of Hydrocortisone, Dexone or Dexamethasone.
If after 15 minutes the unwanted symptoms do not go away, the antiallergic drug is given again, and an injection of ascorbic acid is also given along with Immunofan.

pharmachologic effect
From birth and at any age, animals need vitamins, minerals, and other useful components. They strengthen the living organism, promote the full development of the body, and form the intellect. Valuable substances help resist viruses and infections, participate in the formation of blood, and stabilize the immune system. The pet needs additional support during increased physical and emotional stress, if it is affected by worms, its natural defenses have weakened. When hemobalance becomes necessary: with a deficiency of vitamins and minerals; with anemia; for allergies; if the hair falls out; when contracting an infection; for helminthic infestations; in case of poisoning; before vaccination; after heavy blood loss; in case of liver dysfunction; when weakened or exhausted; during pregnancy and breastfeeding; for postoperative or postnatal rehabilitation. The components of Hemobalance normalize metabolic, recovery, and energy reactions in the animal’s body. It increases appetite, facilitates digestion, stimulates sexual function, and improves the quality and appearance of coat. During a pet's illness, the product accelerates recovery, activates tissue regeneration, and restores internal organs. In weakened animals, it strengthens the immune system, increases tone, regulates the activity of the nervous system and brain.
Directions for use and dosage
Depending on the reason for prescribing Hemobalance, the required dosage of the composition is calculated. Most often, the drug is prescribed as part of intravenous or intramuscular injections, although it can also be prescribed for feeding cats.
The amount of medication used during treatment is calculated based on the weight of the animal:
- cats up to 5 kg - 0.25 ml, 2-3 times a week for 7-10 days;
- pets over 5 kg - 0.5 ml, 2-3 times a week for 7-10 days.
It is interesting to familiarize yourself with the ten largest cat breeds.
For preventive purposes, the specified amount of solution is administered once a week (the duration of the course is prescribed by the veterinarian), and to maintain the protective functions of the body and its rapid recovery after stressful situations, the injection is given once.

Pharmacological properties
Hemobalance is a complex vitamin and mineral supplement with a general strengthening effect. The drug does not have a specific active ingredient: all the substances included in its composition (amino acids, vitamins, salts of microelements) in one way or another contribute to the nutrition of animals and poultry.

In particular, various components of Hemobalance influence the following:
- restoration of metabolism in case of its disruption;
- increased hematopoiesis in case of blood loss;
- stimulating energy exchange in muscles and tissues.
Application
Since Hemobalance is a vitamin-mineral complex, it can be given to the animal on its own. But to avoid unwanted reactions, it would be a good idea to first consult a veterinarian. In especially severe cases, the drug is administered using droppers containing an electrolyte or saline solution. For preventive purposes, dogs are prescribed intramuscular injections.

Depending on the specific situation, the dosage and number of injections are calculated individually:
- To prevent diseases, all animals, regardless of breed, receive one injection per week.
- During pregnancy, injections are given intravenously 2-3 times a week or intramuscularly three times a week. The exact scheme is chosen taking into account the condition of the bitch.
- After surgery, the drug is administered intravenously every 2 days.
- After serious illnesses, animals are given 3-5 droppers every two days, given injections or given a vitamin complex orally until the body recovers.
- At increased loads, treatment is carried out over a course of several days before the next load.
Storage
As indicated in the instructions for use of Hemobalance, the vitamin complex should be stored in veterinary first aid kits at a temperature of up to + 25 degrees. Under no circumstances should the temperature be allowed to drop below 4 degrees, as in this case the medicine loses its healing properties. At subzero temperatures, the drug becomes unsuitable for use and must be disposed of. The shelf life of Hemobalance is 18 months.
Opinions about the medicine
Breeders of mustachioed pets and veterinarians generally leave good reviews about the vitamin and mineral complex. It is easily tolerated by individuals of all ages and does not cause negative reactions from important systems and organs.

From personal experience, I can say that Hemobalance is an excellent support for the immunity of domestic cats, especially those that are often sick. I never prescribe this drug separately, since it works well only in complex therapy due to severe injuries, operations or poisoning.
Anton, veterinarian
For the past 4 years I have been regularly giving Hemobalance for preventive purposes to adult cats and young animals. The product perfectly strengthens the immune system, ensures proper development, and animals practically do not get sick. Moreover, we managed to avoid the panleukopenia epidemic and not become infected.
Vladimir, breeder of purebred cats
The cat's herpes did not go away for a long time. Over the course of 3 weeks, we underwent several therapeutic courses, but all to no avail - a couple of days after the end of treatment, the sore reappeared. The veterinarian recommended piercing the Hemobalance, which saved our Murka. The herpes disappeared after 5 days, but we still completed the full course in 2 weeks.

Biological properties
Without delving into the composition of this drug in detail, we can say that it consists of a complex of biologically active substances that help maintain metabolic processes in the cat’s body at the proper level . We are talking about protein, mineral and vitamin metabolism, the normalization of which is very important for therapeutic and preventive purposes (for example, when there is a lack of these components in the animal’s diet).

All components of “Hemobalance” are largely responsible for hematopoiesis, take part in the processes of hematopoiesis (in particular, they normalize its formula and increase the bactericidal properties of blood serum), and are also able to restore the lost functionality of the liver and have a beneficial effect on the general protective functions of the body.
Among other things, the elements included in the drug are a good source of energy exchange in cells, due to which the performance of muscle tissue increases and, as a result, the body’s resistance to stressful situations and high physical activity increases. It is impossible not to note the positive effect of “Hemobalance” on the health and vitality of a cat’s offspring , because the likelihood of postnatal mortality with its presence in the body is significantly reduced.
