Usage

Functions of Menbutone

‌Menbutone‌ is an animal-specific choleretic drug primarily used to treat digestive disorders, loss of appetite, hepatobiliary dysfunction, and toxemia in livestock (e.g., pigs, cattle, sheep) and companion animals (e.g., dogs). It works by stimulating bile secretion and enhancing digestive enzyme activity to improve gastrointestinal function.
