Directions - Pigs
Administration: Kilverm may be given as a drench or mixed with the feed. It is important that it is consumed quickly for best results. Make sure that the pigs are slightly hungry before administration, that they have ample feeding space, and that animals of comparative size be treated together so that small or weak pigs will be receiving enough share of medicated feed.
Oral Drench dose rate: 1ml/2kg (5ml/10kg) live weight
In Feed dose rate: Calculate accurately the weight of the pigs and dose accurately at the rate of 5mL/10kg, thus 10 pigs of 40kg will need 200mL. Add sufficient water or skim milk to just dampen the mash, pellets or grain, then mix thoroughly.
If using Skim Milk, add the required amount to the milk and mix thoroughly before adding to the feed.
Contraindication: This product is contraindicated in extremely hot weather.
Directions - Poultry
Administration: Mix with clean drinking water. For maximum efficiency it must be consumed in the shortest time possible. Withhold water from birds 2 hours before nightfall. The required amount of medicated water is then made available so that the birds can start drinking it at daylight. Replace with clean water after 8 hours or when medication is consumed.
Birds under continuous light should be treated by withholding water for 2 hours then giving medicated water as above.
Dose Rate For Poultry: Dilute 10ml in 200ml of water for each 6kg live weight (1.75ml in 35ml of water per 1kg live weight). Mix 40ml/litre water for 1 day. Repeat 2 weeks later.
