Equine Original StemCell Fluid injection is a liquid obtained from animal tissue at a site that was treated in a manner to induce natural stem cells of the animal to concentrate at the site. Equine Original StemCell Fluid is the fluid associated with these stem cells and contain proteins and other factors released by stem cells.

Allow both vials to come to room temperature before aseptically reconstituting 5cc of Equine Original StemCell Fluid injection dose with 5cc of WFI. Allow reconstituted Equine Original StemCell Fluid to resolve for 15 minutes until the content completely dissolves. The reconstituted Equine Original StemCell Fluid is normally reddish-brown in color and may even be slightly cloudy.

Instructions for Subcutaneous Injection

• You will receive two vials for the injection.

• Using a new sterile needle and syringe.

• Gently mix WFI vial (water) with PHASE 3 vial (dried stem cell fluid powder) for about 5 minute until fully dissolved.
  We suggest to use the WFI (water) solution at room temperature before injection.
  Note: SWIRL only and DO NOT SHAKE, make sure it is mixed well, if you shake the bubbles will take a lot longer to dissipate
  You want to wait till the bubbles go down before pulling up in the syringe (10 to 15 min if necessary)

• Use new needle and pull all up into a new 10 cc syringe. Before injecting horse use a fresh new needle, it is important to be as sterile as possible

Horse Preparation
