Overview
The suggested daily dosage for treating musculoskeletal diseases in horses is 0.5mg per pound of body weight (1mL per 100 pounds). For a maximum of 5 days, administer intravenously or intramuscularly. Within 2 hours, activity begins, and maximal response occurs between 12 and 16 hours. The action lasts between 24 and 36 hours. The suggested dose for horse colic pain treatment is 0.5 mg per pound of body weight given intravenously for immediate relief. In most cases, pain should be alleviated within 15 minutes. When symptoms persist, treatment can be repeated. In a clinical study, around 10% of horses required one or two further treatments. To address the etiology of colic, concurrent treatment should be employed. For management of bovine respiratory illness, pyrexia associated with endotoxemia, and inflammation in endotoxemia in cattle, the suggested dose is 0.5mg to 1mg per pound of body weight (1mL to 2mL per 100 pounds). Via slow, once-daily intravenously injection, or in two split half-doses injected 12 hours apart for three days in a row. A total dosage of 1mg per pound of body weight should never be exceeded. Do not give the medication too quickly. 1mg per pound of body weight (2mL per 100 pounds) injected intravenously is the recommended dosage for treating bovine mastitis.
