Instructions
Posology:
5 mg trimethoprim and 25 mg sulfadiazine per kg body weight per day to a maximum of 5 days.
One syringe is intended for 600 kg body weight and each syringe is subdivided into 12 markings. The equivalent of one marking is sufficient to treat 50 kg of body weight and the minimum body weight for treatment is 50 kg.
Directions for use
To ensure a correct dosage body weight should be determined as accurately as possible to avoid underdosing. The calculated dose is provided by adjusting the ring on the plunger according to the body weight of the horse.
The paste is administered orally by inserting the nozzle of the syringe through the interdental space and depositing the required amount of paste on the back of the tongue. The animal's mouth should be free of any food. Immediately after administration, elevate the head of the horse for a few seconds to ensure the dose is swallowed.
