Dosage & Administration

Cattle and pigs: For intramuscular injection.

For the treatment of inflammatory or allergic conditions the following average doses are advised. However the actual dose used should be determined by the severity of the signs and the length of time for which they have been present.

• Cattle and pigs: 0.06 mg/kg body weight corresponding to 1.5 ml/50 kg.
• Doses may be repeated once at 24-48 hour intervals if required.
• Injection sites should be alternated.

For the treatment of primary ketosis in cattle (acetonaemia): 0.02 to 0.04 mg/kg body weight corresponding to 5-10 ml per cow given by intramuscular injection is advocated dependent on the size of the cow and the duration of the signs.

• Care should be taken not to overdose Channel Island breeds.
• Larger doses will be required if the signs have been present for some time or if relapsed animals are being treated.
• In most early cases a single dose will effect a cure but the dose may be repeated at 48 hour intervals if necessary.

For the induction of parturition:

• 0.04 mg/kg body weight corresponding to 10 ml per cow as a single intramuscular injection after day 270 of pregnancy.
