Single administration 200 μg of Ivermectin and 1.5 mg of Praziquantel per kg of bodyweight corresponding to 1.07 g of paste per 100 kg bodyweight To ensure administration of a correct dose, bodyweight should be determined as accurately as possible and the correct syringe division selected, as underdosing might lead to an increased risk of development of resistance to anthelmintic drugs. The first division delivers enough paste to treat 50 kg. Each subsequent syringe division delivers enough paste to treat 50 kg of bodyweight. The syringe should be adjusted to the calculated dosage by setting the ring on the appropriate place on the plunger. The syringe contains 7.49 g of paste and delivers sufficient paste to treat 700 kg of bodyweight at the recommended dose rate.
