correct dosage for Tylan-200 injectable?

I know this is an old thread, but I have a bantam who has a respiratory issue, raspy breathing and wheezing. I have her .15 ml on Sunday and .2 today, Tuesday of the 200. She sounds a little better but not much. I am using diabetic needles as they are easier for me. An I dosing her wrong?
@lisa523 , Tylan is supposed to be to given birds 2-4 times a day (cattle once a day), but the injections will cause injection site necrosis, so what some people do is give it orally no less than 2 twice a day. The amount I would give is 25 mg per pound orally twice a day, which with Tylan 200 is 0.06 ml per pound twice a day.

I saw necrosis with LA200, so Tylan 200 is the same? Is this common? Because everyone who has injected never mentioned this before? Also, I’m scared to give it orally as I killed a chick like this before, any suggestions?

You risk injection sight necrosis with Tylan. It's normally given 3 times a day for 5 days, that would be 15 needle sticks.
Give Tylan orally.
Here's how to give medication orally.
