The paste is 1.87% ivermectin, which means one ml of the paste has 18.7 mg ivermectin in it.

The math:
pounds divided by 2.2, times 1, divided by 18.7 = number of ml to give.

Examples:
1 pound - 1 / 2.2 x 1 / 18.7 = 0.024 ml
5 pounds - 5 / 2.2 x 1 / 18.7 = 0.012 ml
10 pounds - 1 / 2.2 x 1 / 18.7 = 0.24 ml

Hope this helps.

Hello! I'm very confident that I have it right. But I just wanted to confer with you before I give her meds. Just in case! Since I can't get a 100% accurate weight on her wiggly butt, but I'm sure she's at least 5 lbs (per what the scale could read) and I think not over 10lbs. I'm just going to go with the 5lb dose.

My question!
I have a 30 unit syringe (0.3ml in the entire thing) Each line marks 0.01ml. Except the very 1st line. It marks empty. id give her to the 12th line in the picture to make 0.012ml, correct? Ty!

Yep
 
Awesome. Oh! Do you know when I'll start seeing results and if I have to redose for a specific length of time? Or is it just one and done until symptoms or mites reappear?

Thank you all so much. She ate it right from the kittle syringe. Lol. I'm so thankful you all here told me about the horse paste version. I was about to have to save up for the $55 pour on jug. But yis paste I was able to use for my rats, ferrets and goose. I appreciate you all so much. You've all been very kind and inviting. I was worried I wouldn't be welcome because she's a Canada, too. But no, quite a few here have them! Anyway. Ty. I feel much better.

You can redose is a week or in two weeks, just a one time dose if you think the mites are still around or as a preventative.
