DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION: Sustain III Calf Boluses (Sulfamethazine Sustained Release Boluses) are designed to be administered orally to ruminating replacement calves. (See CAUTION Statement.) Sustain III Calf Boluses should be given according to the following dosage schedule:
No of Boluses 2 3 4 5 6
Animal Body Weight 100 lbs. 150 lbs. 200 lbs. 250 lbs. 300 lbs.
This bolus may be divided for better approximation of correct dose; however, care should be taken not to crush the bolus. Care should also be taken to ensure the entire dose has been swallowed by the animal. Observe animals following administration to ensure boluses are not regurgitated. Lubricate bolus before dosing animals. Sustain III Calf Boluses are designed to provide a therapeutic sulfamethazine level in approximately 6 hours and persist in providing this level for 72 hours (3 days). After 72 hours, all animals should be re-examined for persistence of observable disease signs. If signs are present, consult a veterinarian. It is strongly recommended that a second dose be given to provide for an additional 72 hours of therapy, particularly in those more severe cases. The above dosage schedule should be used at each 72-hour interval.
