Levacide Injection

Solution for injection. A clear yellow solution, free from visible particles.

A broad spectrum anthelmintic for use in the treatment and control of nematode infections. It should be used in cases of parasitic gastro-enteritis and lungworm disease caused by mature and developing immature forms of those organisms sensitive to treatment with levamisole hydrochloride.

The veterinary medicinal product should be administered by subcutaneous injection at a rate of 7.5 mg Levamisole hydrochloride per kg bodyweight (1 ml/10 kg bodyweight). To ensure administration of a correct dose, bodyweight should be determined as accurately as possible. If animals are to be treated collectively rather than individually, they should be grouped according to their bodyweight and dosed accordingly, in order to avoid under- or overdosing. Use properly calibrated dosing equipment. The veterinary surgeon should give advice regarding appropriate dosing programmes and stock management to achieve adequate parasite control.
