Dosage Amounts to be administered and administration route The need for therapy should be assessed on serum and liver analysis before treatment. Inject into a clean site subcutaneously in the brisket. The following dosage schedule is given as an average guide: Ewes 2 ml, 2.5 months prior to lambing. Shake the vial vigorously to resuspend the solid prior to use. In keeping with safe practice the animal should be restrained in order to avoid injury to animals or human beings. Use aseptic technique. Overdose Do not overdose, as there is no specific antidote. Excess copper accumulates in the liver and can result in a haemolytic crisis leading to death. Suffolk, Texel, Welsh and rare breeds are particularly susceptible.
Withdrawals Withdrawal periods Ewes meat – 28 days
