Eprinex Pour On 1.pdf

For the treatment & control of gastro-intestinal roundworms, lungworm & external parasites in beef and dairy cattle, sheep and goats.

Dosage:

To ensure administration of a correct dose, bodyweight should be determined as accurately as possible; accuracy of the dosing device should be checked. If animals are to be treated collectively rather than individually, they should be grouped according to their bodyweight and dosed accordingly, in order to avoid under- and over- dosing. The product should be applied topically by pouring along the backline in a narrow strip extending from the withers to the tailhead.

Cattle:

Administer by topical application at the dose rate of 0.5 mg eprinomectin per kg bodyweight, corresponding to the recommended dose rate of 1 ml per 10 kg bodyweight.

Sheep and goats:

Administer by topical application at the dose rate of 1.0 mg eprinomectin per kg bodyweight, corresponding to the recommended dose rate of 2 ml per 10 kg bodyweight.

When administering the product along the backline, part the fleece/coat and place applicator nozzle or bottle spout against the skin.

Administration:

For 250 ml and 1 litre bottles:

• Attach the metering cup to the bottle.
• Set the dose by turning the top section of the cup to align the correct bodyweight with the pointer on the knurled cap. When bodyweight is between markings, use the higher setting.
• Hold the bottle upright and squeeze it to deliver a slight excess of the required dose. Release the pressure and tilt the bottle to deliver the dose. For the 1 litre bottle: when a 10 ml or 15 ml dose is required, turn the pointer to “STOP” before delivering the dose. The off (STOP) position will close the system between dosing.
• The dosing cup should not be stored attached to the bottle when not in use. Remove the cup after each use and replace with the bottle cap.

For 2.5 and 5 litre:

• Attach the open end of the draw-off tubing to an appropriate dosing gun.
• Attach draw-off tubing to the cap with the stem that is included in the pack. Replace shipping cap with the cap having the draw-off tubing. Tighten the draw-off cap.
• Gently prime the dosing gun, checking for leaks.
• Follow the dosing gun manufacturer’s directions for adjusting the dose.
