Scourproof ®
Dosage and administration
Administer orally by bucket feeding after dissolving the powder in warm (40°C) water.
For a calf weighing approximately 35 kg (77 lbs), add the contents of one sachet to 1½ litres of warm water and stir well to dissolve it. Two further doses should be given at 12-hour intervals. A fourth dose comprising ½ sachet dissolved in ¾ litre warm water and ¾ litre warm milk should be given after a further 12 hours. Then resume the usual diet.
In severe cases of scour, 1 sachet in 1½ litres warm water should be given every 8 hours on six occasions. Following this a seventh dose of ½ sachet dissolved in ¾ litre warm water topped up with ¾ litre warm milk may be given 8 hours later if necessary.
