Use Directions: There are 220 mg of amprolium in every 1 gram of AMPROMED FOR CALVES

In Drinking Water: Mix AMPROMED FOR CALVES daily with fresh drinking water. Stock solution for water proportioners may be stored in a clean, closed, labeled container for up to 3 days.

Treatment should be on a herd basis only; when one or more calves show signs of coccidiosis, it is likely that the rest of the group has been exposed, and all calves in the group should be treated.

21-DAY TREATMENT: During periods of exposure or when experience indicates that coccidiosis is likely to be a hazard, add AMPROMED FOR CALVES to drinking water at the rate of 4 oz/100 gallon. One 10 oz pack to 250 gallons of water. For use in automatic water proportioners that meter 1 fl oz of stock solution per gallon of drinking water, add 1/2 pouch (5 oz) in 1 gallon of water to make stock solution.
