Dosage and administration
Intravenous or subcutaneous routes.
6 mg/kg bodyweight (1 ml/30 kg bodyweight) as a single injection.
If clinical signs of respiratory or enteric disease persist 48 hours after the first injection, an additional dose at 6 mg/kg bodyweight may be administered. It is recommended to treat animals in the early stages of disease and to evaluate the response to treatment within 48 hours.
For the treatment of acute bovine mastitis, the veterinary medicinal product should be administered at 6 mg/kg bodyweight (1 ml/30 kg bodyweight) as a single injection by the subcutaneous or intravenous route. The clinical signs should be monitored carefully and supportive therapy should be given as appropriate. If clinical signs of acute bovine mastitis persist 36-48 hours after the first injection, the antibiotic treatment should be reviewed. It is recommended to treat animals in the early stages of disease and to evaluate the response to treatment within 36-48 hours.
For treatment of cattle weighing more than 450 kg, divide the subcutaneous dose so that no more than 15 ml are injected at one site. When dosing a large number of animals from a single vial, the use of an automatic syringe is recommended to avoid excessive broaching of the rubber stopper.
To ensure a correct dosage, bodyweight should be determined as accurately as possible.
