*Note:
Make a cattle stock solution by adding one packet of Sulfadimethoxine 107g Powder to 1 gallon of water.
*Twenty fl. oz. of cattle stock solution will medicate 1-600 lb. animal initially or 2-600 lb. animals on maintenance dose. Contents of packet will medicate 6-600 lb. animals initially or 12-600 lb. animals on maintenance dose.
**This dosage recommendation is based on a water consumption of 1 gallon per 100 lb. of body weight per day, the expected water consumption rate for summer. Water consumption during cold months (winter) may drop markedly (30%-40%). Accordingly, adjustments must be made in the dilution rates to compensate for this and insure proper drug intake.
For treatment of individual cattle, Sulfadimethoxine 107g Powder stock solution for cattle may be given as a drench.
