Enroxil

Dosage:

Chickens and turkeys

10 mg enrofloxacin/kg bodyweight per day for 3–5 consecutive days.

Treatment for 3–5 consecutive days; for 5 consecutive days in mixed infections and chronic progressive forms. If no clinical improvement is achieved within 2–3 days, alternative antimicrobial therapy should be considered based on susceptibility testing. The uptake of medicated water depends on the clinical condition of the animals. In order to obtain the correct dosage the concentration of Enroxil should be adjusted accordingly. Taking into consideration that 10 mg enrofloxacin per kg body weight corresponds to 0.1 ml of Enroxil per kg body weight; the following calculation should be made to provide the required amount of Enroxil per litre of drinking water:

Care should be taken that the intended dose is completely ingested.

The product may be put directly into the header tank or introduced via a water proportioner pump. For the preparation of the medicated water for small groups of animals the measuring cup included with the packaging should be used. During preparation of medicated water, the product should be admixed into water and not the other way round.

Only sufficient medicated drinking water should be prepared to cover the daily requirements. Medicated water should be prepared every day, immediately prior to provision. Medication of the water supply should be continuous during the treatment period and no other source of water should be available.

Medicated drinking water should be replaced every 24 hours.
