Runt-Rescue also contains the following natural ingredients:
- Vitamins A,D & E – plays a vital role in bone growth and immune system health

NEW – Absorb
Nobody beats multi-purpose Absorb’s drying and deodorizing power, plus it’s proudly made in the United States. All-natural Absorb reduces the risk of injury around the farm and other areas where moisture can pose a slipping hazard, plus it keeps animals safe and dry, and at the lowest price possible.
With all ingredients classified as Generally Regarded As Safe (GRAS), Absorb provides superior, safe moisture absorption and odor control for a variety of purposes including:
- Drying and reducing chill in all animal species including newborn piglets, swine, cattle, poultry, sheep, goats, horses and pets.
- Removing moisture and ammonia odor from livestock and recreational animal housing, poultry barns and kennels.
- Absorbing wetness in any area where moisture is a problem, such as food processing facilities.
- Drying wet surfaces and flooring to reduce the chance of animal or human injury.
Absorb can be sprinkled on animal bedding or flooring to absorb moisture and odors caused by urination, diarrhea or water. For newborn piglets, it is recommended that Absorb be rubbed vigorously between its neck and tail until the animal is dry.

NEW – Brook-Lytes
Brook-Lytes is a non-medicated, pH buffered electrolyte for pigs of all stages and environments. When added to drinking water, Brook-Lytes draws pigs to 
drink with its highly palatable formula and unique aromatic flavor to keep them hydrated and fortified with essential nutrients. Especially useful during times of stress or loss, Brook-Lytes replaces fluids, electrolytes and elements lost to metabolism and during times of critical stress such as weaning. The pH buffering ability of Brook-Lytes maintains a healthy digestive system by lowering the pH of the gut to encourage efficient digestion and reduce negative bacteria in the system.
