Streptacare dose
« on: August 19, 2013, 04:16:55 pm »
Heelo everyone

Ive just gone and read the small print on my bottle of streptacare and it says:

1 ml Streptacare per 25 kg bodyweight. The dose should be given once daily by deep intramuscular injection for up to three consecutive days. The maximum dose volume administered at one site should not exceed....1.5 ml
for pigs

Does that mean I should give her 2 injections for just 3ml of strep?!?!?!?  :o  Giving one is bad enough!!!!!!  BTW I am waiting for a call back from the vets and from Streptacare, but thought I would ask on here whilst I'm waiting.
