PRESENTATION
Continuous release intraruminal device.
A cylindrical, blue glass continual release intraruminal
device approximately 82mm x 24mm and weighing
approximately 100g.
USES
For prevention and treatment of copper and selenium
deficiencies and for improvement of cobalt supply.
DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION:
Remove the bolus from the foil and ensure the
bolus is at room temperature 15 -20°C before
administration
Ruminating cattle over two months of age and
weighing over 100 kg body weight: 2 boluses.
Administer orally using an applicator, which delivers
the bolus directly into the top of the gullet. Great care
should be taken not to cause any injury by rough
handling or by placing the applicator too far inside
the throat of the animal. Ensure that each animal
has swallowed the boluses by holding the mouth
closed and observing the animal for a short time after
dosing. Gentle massage of the throat may facilitate
swallowing of the boluses.
The boluses should normally be administered just
before turnout, but administration may be carried out
at any time, e.g. administer to dairy cows at drying
off or at calving or 30 days post-calving or at artificial
insemination.
In the event of suspected overdose see carton
To minimise the risk of regurgitation, avoid rough
handling of animals after dosing.
Do not administer the recommended dosage to
animals more frequently than once every 4.5 months
to animals receiving concentrates or every 6 months
to cattle at pasture.
CONTRAINDICATIONS AND WARNINGS
Do not administer to non-ruminating calves or to
animals weighing less than 100kg body weight.
Do not administer to sheep
