WHY DOGS AND CATS NEED VIMERAL FORTE
Vitamin A is essential for healthy vision, skin integrity, immune function, and reproductive health. Deficiency in dogs causes night blindness, dry skin, and increased susceptibility to infections.
Vitamin D3 regulates calcium and phosphorus absorption — critical for strong bones, teeth, and muscle function. Indian pet dogs fed home-cooked diets are frequently D3 deficient.
Vitamin E is a powerful antioxidant that protects cell membranes from oxidative damage. It supports immune response, skin health, and coat quality in dogs and cats.
Vitamin B12 is vital for nerve function, red blood cell formation, and energy metabolism. Deficiency causes weakness, poor appetite, and neurological symptoms in dogs.
WHEN VETERINARIANS RECOMMEND VIMERAL FORTE
Post-Illness Recovery
Dogs and cats recovering from infections, surgery, or prolonged illness benefit from Vimeral Forte to restore depleted vitamin reserves and accelerate healing.
Stress and Travel
Environmental changes, travel, boarding, and vaccination stress deplete vitamins rapidly. Vimeral Forte acts as an anti-stress supplement by replenishing key vitamins that support the immune system during these periods.
Growth Support in Puppies and Kittens
Growing animals have elevated vitamin requirements. Vimeral Forte supports bone development, immune maturation, and healthy weight gain in puppies and kittens.
Poor Appetite and Weight Loss
B12 deficiency is a common cause of reduced appetite in dogs. Vimeral Forte helps restore energy metabolism and stimulate appetite in underweight or recovering pets.
Home-Cooked or Grain-Based Diets
Pets fed primarily rice, roti, or home-cooked food without commercial pet food are at high risk of fat-soluble vitamin deficiency. Vimeral Forte fills this nutritional gap.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS — VIRBAC VIMERAL FORTE
What is Vimeral Forte used for in dogs? ▼
Vimeral Forte is a multivitamin supplement that provides Vitamins A, D3, E, and B12. It is used to support recovery after illness, manage stress, improve appetite, support bone development in puppies, and fill nutritional gaps in pets fed home-cooked diets.
Can I give Vimeral Forte to my puppy? ▼
Yes. Puppies have higher vitamin requirements than adult dogs. Give 1–2 ml daily mixed with food. Vimeral Forte supports healthy bone development, immune system maturation, and weight gain during the critical growth phase.
My dog eats home-cooked food. Does he need Vimeral Forte? ▼
Very likely yes. Home-cooked diets of rice, roti, and boiled meat are severely lacking in fat-soluble vitamins — especially Vitamin D3 and Vitamin A. Dogs fed exclusively home-cooked food without supplementation commonly develop deficiencies over time. Vimeral Forte directly addresses this gap.
How long should I give Vimeral Forte to my dog? ▼
For recovery and stress periods, a 2–4 week course is typical. For dogs on home-cooked diets, ongoing daily supplementation is recommended. Consult your vet for the right duration based on your dog's specific condition and diet.
Is Vimeral Forte safe for cats? ▼
Yes. Vimeral Forte is formulated for both dogs and cats. The dosage for cats and small breeds is 2–3 ml daily. Mix with wet food for easiest administration.
Can I give Vimeral Forte along with other medications? ▼
Vimeral Forte is a nutritional supplement and is generally safe alongside most veterinary medications. However, avoid combining with other Vitamin A or D3 supplements to prevent over-supplementation. When in doubt, check with your vet.
