Lincocin Premix
Dosage and administration
For the control of swine dysentery
Feed 44 g of lincomycin per tonne (1,000 kg) of complete feed as the sole ration throughout the period of risk.
For the treatment of swine dysentery
Feed 110 g of lincomycin per tonne (1,000 kg) of complete feed as the sole ration for three weeks or until clinical signs of disease (watery, mucoid or bloody stools) disappear.
For the treatment and control of swine mycoplasmal pneumonia
Feed 220 g of lincomycin per tonne (1,000 kg) of complete feed as the sole ration for three weeks or until clinical signs of disease disappear.
For the inappetant pig
Where individual pigs are not readily taking Lincocin Premix medicated feed, it is advisable that parenteral administration of Lincocin Sterile Solution (100 mg/ml) should be employed at a dose rate of 10 mg/kg body weight daily. One or two intramuscular injections at a 24-hour interval will normally control clinical signs adequately to return the appetite.
Where medication via the drinking water is more applicable, Lincocin Soluble Powder may be administered at the recommended rate of 150 mg lincomycin per 4.5 litres (1 gallon) of drinking water.
