How calcium supplements useful in veterinary?

Calcium supplements are useful primarily to treat hypocalcemia. This is a nutritional issue that typically arises around pregnancy. In dogs, pregnancy hypocalcemia tends to be pre-parturient (before birth) and causes a tonic paralysis (rigid paralysis). In dairy cattle, hypocalcemia tends to be post-paturient (after birth) and causes a flaccid paralysis (floppy or loose paralysis). In both cases, careful administration of intravenous calcium can reverse the paralysis in a matter of hours.
