In drinking water use.
The posology for each target species is 20 mg amprolium / kg body weight / day (equivalent to 0.5 mL of oral solution / 10 kg bodyweight/day) for 5 to 7 consecutive days.
To ensure a correct dosage, body weight should be determined as accurately as possible. The intake of medicated water depends on the clinical condition of the animals. In order to obtain the correct dosage, the concentration of amprolium may need to be adjusted accordingly. Based on the recommended dose and the number and weight of animals to be treated, the exact daily concentration of the veterinary medicinal product should be calculated according to the following formula:
0.05 mL of the product per kg bodyweight | x average bodyweight (kg) of the animals to be daily treated | x number of animals | |
_________________________________________________________________________ | = mL of oral solution/.... Litre of drinking water |
Total water consumption (L) of the herd at the previous day | |
Sufficient access to the system of water supply should be available for the animals to be treated to ensure adequate water consumption. No other source of drinking water should be available during the medication period. Medicated drinking water should be replaced every 24 hours.
After the end of the medication period the water supply system should be cleaned appropriately to avoid intake of sub-therapeutic amounts of the active substance.
The veterinary medicinal product should not be used in contact with metal pipework or containers.
