Always follow your veterinarian’s instructions. The correct dosage depends on your pet’s weight and specific condition. Never exceed the recommended dose.
Determining the Correct Dosage
Your vet will provide a precise dosage based on your pet’s weight. They’ll likely provide a chart or clear instructions. Carefully measure the correct amount using a precise measuring tool, like a small measuring spoon or syringe (if liquid).
- For tablets: Score lines indicate how to break tablets into smaller doses. For liquids: Use a marked syringe or oral dropper for accurate measurements.
Administering the Medication
Prepare your pet: Make your pet comfortable. A calm pet makes medication easier. Position for success: Hold your pet gently but firmly. For small animals, hold them securely to avoid sudden movements. Administer the medication: Place the tablet at the back of the mouth or administer liquid medication slowly and directly into the mouth, avoiding squirting it directly onto the tongue. For some animals a small amount of tasty food might help. Reward your pet: Give your pet a small treat after administering the medicine to reinforce positive associations.
Important Considerations
- Storage: Store Cephorum animal tablets in a cool, dry place, away from children and pets. Missed Dose: Contact your vet if you miss a dose. Do not double up on doses. Adverse Reactions: Watch for any signs of allergic reactions or unexpected side effects, and contact your veterinarian immediately if any occur.
Additional Tips
If you have difficulty administering the medication, consult your veterinarian for assistance. They may offer suggestions or techniques to make it easier.
