Rumen protectant for bloat and acidosis on high-concentrate diets.
Available Sizes

Rum Safe is a single-dose anti-bloat and rumen-buffering powder. Calcium propionate, sodium bicarbonate, gentian, simethicone and methionine — formulated for cattle on high-concentrate fattening diets where rumen acidosis and bloat are real risks.
Why farmers ask for it
4 reasons farmers ask for Rum Safe.
-
Stops bloat fast.
Simethicone breaks gas-foam in the rumen; sodium bicarbonate buffers acidity. The combination acts within hours.
-
Designed for grain-rich fattening rations.
High concentrate-to-roughage ratios cause subclinical acidosis that kills daily weight gain.
-
Cobalt + pyridoxine for microbial recovery.
Re-establishes the microbe population that drives digestion after the acid event passes.
-
Pre-measured sachet, mix in warm water.
100 g sachet. No measuring — one sachet per dose for adults.

When to use it
Real situations, real answers.
-
Acute bloat
Use immediately when bloat is observed. If severe, call your vet — Rum Safe supports treatment but is not a substitute for emergency veterinary care.
-
Fattening ration management
If you are running cattle on high-grain finishing rations and seeing intermittent feed refusal, give a 3-day course to reset rumen pH.
Dosage
How to use.
Rum Safe — common questions.
From dosing to storage to who it's right for — answered straight.
-
Is this an emergency treatment?
It's first-line supportive care for bloat and acidosis. For severe bloat where the animal is in respiratory distress, you need a vet.
-
Can I use it as a preventive?
Yes — a 3-day course when transitioning cattle onto a high-grain finishing ration. After the course, use Probiamin daily.
-
How is it different from Rumen Care?
Rumen Care is for general appetite loss. Rum Safe is specifically for the acid-and-bloat picture — it has simethicone and a much higher bicarbonate load.
