Ivermectin is administered per body weight

If u dont know your dogs body weight…:Small breeds like lhasa don't usually weight much so they should get 1ml

If u have a large breed like caucasian or german shepherd or boerboel…then u might need like 2mls

If ur large breeds is not yet grown to a full big adult then stick to 0.5mls if they are still small or at puppy stage of 1mimth…but if they have grown a bit like over two months, 1ml should be okay

If u administer today…..administer 1.5 or two weeks later… but if the parasite infestation is very high… u can do 1week interval…


If u dint know how to inject dog.. call a vet oooo…. Its not the same with human that u will just stab the buttoks oooo

Good luck

You could have just advised him to call a vet and not administer himself, but no you chose to give him instructions that might get his dog killed and then ended it with “ If u dint know how to inject dog.. call a vet oooo…. Its not the same with human that u will just stab the buttoks oooo

With all the information you gave do you think he would still contact a vet, it is totally wrong to self medicate a dog when you’re not a veterinary doctor.

thanks so much sir, the puppy is a German shepherd, 4 months. The confusion is that the pack said 0.5ml for 25kg body weight. Should I still give 1ml if he's mot up to 25kg?

I know how to inject, it's just that I'm having confusion with this particular ivermectin since it's my first time using it.

Yawn!! Are u a medical doctor?? Lie say u never self medicate before in your life? Dey deceive yourself…dey form compliance officer…. grin

See…. Being able to know and do some basic things might just be a life saving move…but pple like you know this but like to form compliance manager.

i gave him both options because he might not have access to a vet and might have been doing it before now for someone that already has ivermectin at hand

If hes 4 months hes likely around that weight or even less …

So 0.5ml to 1ml is fine
U can do 0.5ml then inject again at 1week
