Dosage: 1ml per 50 kg bodyweight by subcutaneous injection (based on a recommended dosage level of 200µg of ivermectin and 2mg of clorsulon per kg bodyweight). For example:
Bodyweight (kg) | Dose volume (ml) | Doses per 50ml pack | Doses per 250ml pack | Doses per 500ml pack |
Up to 50 | 1 | 50 | 250 | 500 |
51-100 | 2 | 25 | 125 | 250 |
101-150 | 3 | 16 | 83 | 166 |
151-200 | 4 | 12 | 62 | 125 |
201-250 | 5 | 10 | 50 | 100 |
251-300 | 6 | 8 | 40 | 83 |
Over 300kg give 1ml per 50kg bodyweight.
To ensure a correct dosage, bodyweight should be determined as accurately as possible; accuracy of the dosing device should be checked. If animals are to be treated collectively rather than individually, to avoid under- or over-dosing, they should be grouped according to their bodyweight and dosed accordingly. Inject only by the subcutaneous route.
Divide doses in excess of 10ml between different injection sites.
The timing of treatment should be based on epidemiological factors and should be customised for each individual farm. A dosing program should be established by a qualified professional person.
A sterile 17 gauge ½ inch (15-20 mm) needle is recommended.
Different injection sites should be used for other parenteral products administered concurrently. When using the 500 ml pack size use only automatic syringe equipment. For the 50 ml pack size, use of a multidose syringe is recommended.
The product should be administered under the loose skin in front of or behind the shoulder.
