  DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION: Cattle, Calves, Horses, Swine, Sheep, and Goats: Acute hypoprothrombinemia (with hemorrhage) and Non-acute hypoprothrombinemia - 0.5 - 2.5 mg/kg subcutaneously OR intramuscularly.

  Dogs and Cats: Acute hypoprothrombinemia (with hemorrhage) and Non-acute hypoprothrombinemia - 0.25 - 5.0 mg/kg subcutaneously OR intramuscularly. Use higher end of dose for second generation rodenticides.

  Whenever possible, K-Ject Injection should be given by the subcutaneous or intramuscular route. When intravenous administration is considered unavoidable, the drug should be diluted and injected very slowly, not exceeding 1 mg per minute.

  DIRECTIONS FOR DILUTION: K-Ject Injection may be diluted with 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, 5% Dextrose Injection, or 5% Dextrose and Sodium Chloride Injection. Other Diluents Should Not Be Used. When dilutions are indicated, administration should be started immediately after mixture with the diluent, and unused portions of the dilution should be discarded.

  Whole blood or component therapy may be indicated if bleeding is excessive. This therapy, however, does not correct the underlying disorder and K-Ject Injection should be given concurrently. In the event of shock or excessive blood loss, the use of whole blood component therapy is indicated.
