DOSAGE
Administer at a dose rate of 250 mg of lincomycin per gallon of drinking water. In clinical studies, this dose rate provided an average of 3.8 mg of lincomycin per pound of body weight per day.
ADMINISTRATION
This packet will medicate 128 gallons of drinking water providing 250 mg/gallon. A dose of 3.8 mg lincomycin per pound of body weight may be maintained by medicating the drinking water at a concentration of 250 mg per gallon of drinking water when pigs are consuming 1.5 gallons per 100 lbs of body weight per day. Under these circumstances the concentration of lincomycin required in medicated water may be adjusted to compensate for variations in age and weight of animals, the nature and severity of disease symptoms, environmental temperature and humidity, each of which affects water consumption. For use in automatic water proportioners, prepare the stock solution by dissolving 1 packet in 1 gallon of water, then adjust the proportioner to deliver 1 ounce of stock solution per gallon of drinking water.
DOSAGE
Administer at a dose rate of 64 mg of lincomycin per gallon of drinking water.
ADMINISTRATION
This packet will medicate 500 gallons of drinking water providing 64 mg/gallon.
