Medication Delivery

ClearH2O: Medication Delivery

Medication delivery has traditionally been labor-intensive and sometimes counterintuitive to animal welfare objectives, requiring injections, handling, and restraint of research animals. 


ClearH2O’s MediGel Sucralose, LabGel Primate and LabGel  Banana products offer a more ethical alternative! All offer a convenient, efficient way to treat animals pre- and post-operatively. By eliminating the need to handle and restrain the animal to administer an injection, ClearH2O helps reduce the need for labor, reduce animal stress and improve compliance.
