Administration

Use only as directed on the product label. Follow all label instructions for proper handling, administration, and storage. Intended for animal use only.

Cattle: Ivermectin Injection is to be given subcutaneously only, to reduce the risk of potentially fatal clostridial infection of the injection site. Animals should be appropriately restrained to achieve the proper route of administration. Use of a 16-gauge, 1/2 to 3/4 inch needle is suggested. Inject under the loose skin in front of or behind the shoulder (see illustration).

When using the 250, 500, or 1000 mL pack size, use only automatic syringe equipment.
Use sterile equipment and sanitize the injection site by applying a suitable disinfectant. Clean, properly disinfected needles should be used to reduce the potential for injection site infections.

No special handling or protective clothing is necessary.
