How much does he weigh?exactly how much tylan 50 should I be giving him, how many times a day, and for how many days??? Thank you.
If he were mine and I thought he had an infection that could be treated with Tylan 50 I would give 1.2ml orally twice a day. I know it seems like a lot, but all my reference material says that's about what it should be. If no improvement is seen in 48-72 hours no reason to continue.He weighs 2 lbs 5.8 oz. He is 14 1/2 weeks old. Thank you
The Elanco website say that with the powder they should get 50 mg per pound per day. Two pounds 6 ounces = 2.3625 pounds, so the math is:ok, so I have 1 ml syringes, I will fill it up once and then the second time only fill it to the 20 mark right? So one whole syringe full and then 20 of the syringe.... two times a day, I just want to get this right. I have been way underdosing him without realizing it. I have been giving him a little over 1/4 mil just once in the morning.... I have done this for 3 days.... do I start the higher dose tomorrow and keep dosing him for 5 days if he shows improvement? Stop after 3 days if no improvement?
