Dectomax Injection for Cattle and Sheep

Dosage & Administration

To ensure administration of a correct dose, bodyweight should be determined as accurately as possible; accuracy of the dosing device should be checked.

In cattle:

• A single treatment of 1 ml (10 mg doramectin) per 50 kg bodyweight, equivalent to 200 µg/kg bodyweight, administered in the region of the neck by subcutaneous injection.

• In addition, adequate bio-security measures should be implemented to prevent re-infestation.
• Ensure that all sheep which have been in contact with infested sheep are treated.
• After treatment, contact between treated infected and untreated uninfected flocks must be avoided for at least 14 days.
• A single treatment of 1 ml (10 mg doramectin) per 50 kg bodyweight, equivalent to 200 µg/kg bodyweight, administered by intramuscular injection for the control of certain other gastro-intestinal nematodes and nasal bots.
