Just browsing in Boots today and found Osteocare tablets with magnesium and vit d3 . They had no liquid . Re my previous post , piggie us going back to vets first but if no further on , can we give tablet form and does anyone know how much ? Is it ok that it contains magnesium ?
 
As far as I am aware it is 1ml twice a day but that is for the liquid. I am not sure about the tablets am afraid.
 
I've only given the liquid, but the magnesium is fine. According to the manufacturers website, the 5 ml liquid has the same levels of ingredients as 1 tablet, so therefore the dose would be 1/5 of a tablet twice a day! This would be pretty difficult to do, so I'd try to get the liquid instead.
