Levacide Low Volume is a broad spectrum levamisole containing anthelmintic drench for use in the treatment and control of nematode infections in cattle and sheep. It should be used in cases of parasitic gastroenteritis and lungworm disease caused by mature and developing immature forms of those organisms sensitive to treatment with levamisole hydrochloride.
Active Ingredient: levamisole hydrochloride 75 mg/mL
Target species: Cattle and Sheep
Dosage:
Administer as an oral drench using a dosing gun system at a rate of 7.5 mg Levamisole hydrochloride per kg bodyweight or 1 ml Levacide Low Volume/ 10 kg bodyweight.
To ensure administration of a correct dose, bodyweight should be determined as accurately as possible. If animals are to be treated collectively rather than individually, they should be grouped according to their bodyweight and dosed accordingly, in order to avoid under- or overdosing.
