Dose to be administered and administration route
In feed use.
The daily dose is 1 mg fenbendazole per kg bodyweight per day administered in feed for 5 consecutive days.
For the preparation of medicated feed:
1 mg fenbendazole per kg bodyweight per day corresponds to 0.025 g of the veterinary medicinal product per kg bodyweight per day.
For the preparation of the medicated feed the bodyweight of the animals to be treated and their actual daily intake of feed should be taken into due account.
To provide the required amount of fenbendazole per kg medicated feed the premix has to be incorporated into the feed according to the following formula:
For incorporation into dry feed at the registered mill:
A manufacturer who is approved to incorporate veterinary medicinal products, or premixtures containing such veterinary medicinal products, directly at any concentration, must be responsible for mixing when incorporation is less than 2 kg per tonne for final feed.
To ensure adequate distribution of the veterinary medicinal product in the final feed it is recommended to premix the veterinary medicinal product at a ratio of 1:10 with feed ingredients before blending into the final feed. If the premix is used for supplementation of pelleted feed, the pelleting temperature should not exceed 105 °C.
Not to be mixed in liquid feed.
To ensure administration of a correct dose, bodyweight should be determined as accurately as possible.
The uptake of medicated feed depends on the clinical condition of the animals and environmental factors. The feed intake should be monitored regularly and the incorporation rate adjusted accordingly in order to guarantee an intake of 1 mg fenbendazole per kg bodyweight per day.
