Directions For Use

Mix fresh solutions daily. Use as sole source of drinking water-do not mix this product directly with milk or milk replacers. Administer 1 hour before or 2 hours after feeding milk or milk replacers.

Administer 7 to 14 days to chickens & turkeys and up to 5 days to swine.

NOTE: The concentration of drug required in medicated water must be adequate to compensate for variation in the age of the animal, feed consumption rate, and the environmental temperatures and humidity, each of which affects water consumption.
