DOSAGE, MIXING AND FEEDING DIRECTIONS - FENBENDAZOLE TYPE B MEDICATED FEED

CATTLE - Beef and Dairy: DOSAGE; 5 mg fenbendazole per kg body weight (BW) in a ONE (1) DAY TREATMENT (2.27 mg fenbendazole per pound (lb) of BW). Mix 1 lb of the Type B (0.5%) medicated feed containing 4,540 g/ton of fenbendazole with 4 lbs. of feed ingredients to manufacture Type C medicated feed containing 908 grams of fenbendazole per ton equivalent. Feed the resulting Type C medicated feed as the sole ration for ONE (1) DAY at the rate of 0.5 pounds per 100 pounds of BW to provide 2.27 mg fenbendazole per lb of BW.

Do not underdose. Ensure each animal receives a complete dose based on a current body weight. Underdosing may result in ineffective treatment, and encourage the development of parasite resistance.

Mix 1 lb of the Type B (0.5%) medicated feed containing 4,540 g/ton of fenbendazole with 14.13 lbs. of feed ingredients to manufacture Type C medicated feed containing 300 grams of fenbendazole per ton equivalent. Feed the resulting Type C medicated feed as a sole ration for 3-12 CONSECUTIVE DAYS at the rate of 0.9 to 0.23 lbs. per 100 lbs. of BW to provide 4.08 mg fenbendazole per lb of BW.

GROWING TURKEYS DOSAGE; Feed a Type C medicated feed containing 14.5 g fenbendazole/ ton (16 ppm) as the sole ration for SIX (6) CONSECUTIVE DAYS. Mix 1 pound (lb) of Type B (0.5%) medicated feed containing 4,540 g/ton of fenbendazole with 313.00 lbs. of feed ingredients to manufacture Type C medicated feed containing 14.5 grams of fenbendazole per ton equivalent.

Mix 1 lb of the Type B (0.5%} medicated feed containing 4,540 g/ton of fenbendazole with 14.13 lbs. of feed ingredients to manufacture Type C medicated feed containing 300 grams of fenbendazole per ton equivalent. Feed the resulting Type C medicated feed for THREE (3) CONSECUTIVE DAYS at a rate of 0.8 lbs. per 100 lbs. of BW to provide 1.14 mg/lb BW/day. Prior withdraw of feed or water is not necessary. Retreatment may be required in six weeks, depending upon conditions of continued exposure to parasites, condition of treated animals and ambient temperatures. BIGHORN SHEEP: DOSAGE; Feed at a rate to supply 10 mg fenbendazole/ kg body weight (BW)/day (4.54 mg/lb/day) for THREE (3) CONSECUTIVE DAYS. Mix 1 lb of the Type B (0.5%) medicated feed containing 4,540 g/ton of fenbendazole with 4 lbs. of feed ingredients to manufacture Type C medicated feed containing 908 grams of fenbendazole per ton equivalent.

All horses must be eating normally to ensure that each animal consumes an adequate amount of medicated feed. Do not underdose. Ensure each animal receives a complete dose based on a current body weight. Underdosing may result in ineffective treatment, and encourage the development of parasite resistance.

CATTLE - Beef and Dairy:

WITHDRAWAL PERIODS AND RESIDUE WARNINGS:

Milk taken during treatment and for 60 hours after the last treatment must not be used for human consumption. Cattle must not be slaughtered for human consumption within 13 days following last treatment with this drug product. Not for use in beef calves less than 2 months of age, dairy calves, and veal calves. A withdrawal period has not been established forth is product in pre-ruminating calves.

OTHER WARNINGS:

Parasite resistance may develop to any dewormer, and has been reported for most classes of dewormers. Treatment with a dewormer used in conjunction with parasite management practices appropriate to the geographic area and the animal(s) to be treated may slow the development of parasite resistance. Fecal examinations or other diagnostic tests and parasite management history should be used to determine if the product is appropriate for the herd, prior to the use of any dewormer. Following the use of any dewormer, effectiveness of treatment should be monitored (for example, with the use of a fecal egg count reduction test or another appropriate method). A decrease in a drug’s effectiveness over time as calculated by fecal egg count reduction tests may indicate the development of resistance to the dewormer administered. Your parasite management plan should be adjusted accordingly based on regular monitoring.

SWINE - Growing Pigs Gilts Pregnant Sows and Boars:

WITHDRAWAL PERIODS:

Swine must not be slaughtered for human consumption within 4 days following last treatment with this drug product.

OTHER WARNINGS:

Parasite resistance may develop to any dewormer. All dewormers require accurate dosing for best results. Following the use of any dewormer, effectiveness of treatment should be monitored. A decrease of effectiveness overtime may indicate the development of resistance to the dewormer administered. The parasite management plan should be adjusted accordingly based on regular monitoring.

Do not use 14 days before or during the hunting season.

OTHER WARNINGS:

Parasite resistance may develop to any dewormer. All dewormers require accurate dosing for best results. Following the use of any dewormer, effectiveness of treatment should be monitored. A decrease of effectiveness overtime may indicate the development of resistance to the dewormer administered. The parasite management plan should be adjusted accordingly based on regular monitoring.
