Norodine 24 Injectable Solution may be administered by intravenous injection when rapid blood levels of trimethoprim and Sulfadiazine are required.

Dogs and Cats: The recommended dose rate is 30 mg of active ingredients per kilogram bodyweight (1 ml per 8 kg bodyweight), by subcutaneous injection only. The recommended site in dogs is the loose skin at the top of the neck. A single injection may be sufficient in uncomplicated conditions, but in severe infections it may be repeated daily until 2 days after symptoms resolve, up to a maximum of 5 days. An appropriately graduated syringe must be used to allow accurate administration of the required dose volume. This is particularly important when injecting small volumes.
