Underdosing could result in ineffective use and may favour resistance development.
To ensure a correct dosage, body weight should be determined as accurately as possible.
Accuracy of the dosing device should be thoroughly checked.
If animals are to be treated collectively rather than individually, they should be grouped according to their bodyweight and dosed accordingly, in order to avoid under- or overdosing.
For infestations with Fasciola hepatica, the need for and frequency of re-treatment(s) should be based on professional advice and should take into account the local epidemiological situation and the animal’s lifecycle.
To avoid the potential for the accumulation of residues following repeat administration of the veterinary medicinal product; animals should not be treated with a frequency of less than 10 weeks.
