Supplementing according to Repashy calcium plus directions?

[Elizabeth Freer]

They limit their services to their own zoo animals unfortunately

:sad:

A critical vitamin that's important NOT to overdue is vitamin A actetate (retinol). You could calculate the amount of retinol in multiple Repashy's Calcium Plus LoD doses per week as compared with a single dose of Zoo Med's Reptivite multivitamins per week. That's kinda just a guestimate, because of all the variables.

I can't speak for other vitamins.

Ok, so I hope I got my math right but here we go. Zoomed provides 220,264 IU/Kg of vitamin A and I converted Repashy LoD's 80,000 IU/lb to IU/kg and got 176,369 IU/Kg of Vitamin A. Zoomed's reptivite has 22,907 IU/Kg of vitamin D and I calculated Repashy LoD's 20,000 IU/lb to 17,636 IU/Kg of Vitamin D. If my math is right then I need to supplement Repashy calcium plus LoD two times a week in order to get a dose that’s close to Zoomed reptivite once a week.

Just got a reply from Allen. He says to supplement LoD every feeding, he doesn’t believe that the product will cause an overdose in vitamin A or D.

Got a reply from some veterinarians a local vet tells me that they’re unaware of the brands that I listed (Repashy and Zoomed) but recommend that I take Asia outside in unfiltered sunlight when it’s warm enough. I emailed SEAVES (stahl exotic animal veterinary services) and they say to only supplement multivitamins with vitamin A two times a month and a calcium without D3 supplement 2-3 times a week.
