Dosage and administration
FOR ORAL USE.
The oral suspension must be shaken before use.
To ensure administration of a correct dose, body weight should be determined as accurately as possible.
To obtain maximum benefit, animals should be treated before the expected onset of clinical signs, i.e. in the prepatent period. Treatment during an outbreak will be of limited value for the individual animal, because of damage to the small intestine having already occurred.
Pigs:
Individual animal treatment.
Each piglet to be treated on day 3 to 5 of life with a single oral dose of 20 mg toltrazuril per kg body weight corresponding to 0.4 ml oral suspension per kg body weight.
Due to the small volumes required to treat individual piglets, use of dosing equipment with a dose accuracy of 0.1 ml is recommended.
Cattle:
Each animal should be treated with a single oral dose of 15 mg toltrazuril/kg body weight corresponding to 3.0 ml oral suspension per 10 kg body weight. If animals are to be treated collectively rather than individually, they should be grouped according to their body weight and dosed accordingly, in order to avoid under- or over-dosing.
Sheep:
Each animal should be treated with a single oral dose of 20 mg toltrazuril/kg body weight corresponding to 0.4 ml oral suspension per kg body weight. If animals are to be treated collectively rather than individually, they should be grouped according to their body weight and dosed accordingly, in order to avoid under- or over-dosing.
