DOSAGE & ADMINISTRATION INFORMATION
IMPORTANT NOTE: ECO-EARS IS AN ORAL MEDICINE TO BE GIVEN BY MOUTH. IT IS NOT AN EAR DROP AND IS NOT TO BE APPLIED TOPICALLY OR DIRECTLY INTO THE EAR.
Frequency of dose
For acute or recent symptoms:
Give the recommended dose every 30 minutes for 4 doses. Then give a dose every 3 hours for 3 doses. Thereafter reduce the frequency to 3 times daily until pain or swelling is relieved.
For chronic problems:
Give the recommended dose twice daily.
Give the prescribed dose of the medicine at least 10 minutes away from food or other remedies or supplements. If you are using more than one Eco-Vet medicine at a time, please give the medicines 10 minutes apart for maximum efficacy.
Preparation of medicine and directions for administration
ECO-EARS is prepared in 20% ethanol and should therefore be diluted before giving it to your animal.
While water is the best medium for administration, if your pet does not tolerate the water, you can substitute milk. As a last resort, you can give it on a little treat, but this may delay or impact the efficacy of the medicine.
When you are able to administer the medicine directly into your pet’s mouth, dilute the medicine in clean water and allow it to stand for a few minutes to allow the alcohol to evapourate. You can then administer the recommended dose of the diluted medicine directly into the mouth using a clean dry plastic spoon or syringe.
Alternatively you can add the recommended dose of the medicine to the animal’s drinking water, stir with a plastic spoon and leave to stand for a few minutes to allow any alcohol to evapourate before giving it to your pet. Be sure to make up fresh drinking water at least once a day or whenever the water is soiled or dirty.
