General Information On Dosage
Dosages in terms of 6.4 oz packets per 256 gallons and 25.6 oz packets per 512 gallons are based on stated dosages per unit of body weight and average water consumption of the species. Weather conditions, ambient temperature, humidity, age, class of livestock and other factors may affect consumption and, except where calves are drenched, the unit dosage should be used as a guide to effective use in drinking water. Animal must actually consume enough medicated water to provide the desired therapeutic dose under the conditions that prevail.
Precautions
Use as the sole source of chlortetracycline. Prepare fresh solutions daily. When used in plastic or stainless steel waterers or automatic waterers, prepare fresh solutions every 24 hours. When used in galvanized waterers, prepare fresh solutions every 12 hours. Do not administer in milk or milk replacers. When feeding milk or milk replacers, administration one hour before or two hours after feeding is recommended.
