The equivalent of one marking is sufficient to treat 50 kg of bodyweight and the minimum body weight for treatment is 50 kg.
Directions for use

- 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.
