When the intravenous route is used the injection should be given slowly into the selected vein and at the first signs of discomfort or restlessness on the part of the animal it should be halted momentarily. A small gauge needle should preferably be used.
Repetition of treatment
Treatment must be repeated daily at the prescribed dosages until full recovery has taken place.
