  • By law the user must take due care, obtaining expert advice when necessary, to avoid unnecessary pain and distress when using the product other than as directed on the label.

    I-Clor Injection is a ready to use solution for SUBCUTANEOUS INJECTION in the anterior half of the neck.

    I-Clor Injection can be administered through standard injection equipment. When the temperature of the product is below 5°C, difficulty in administration may be encountered due to increased viscosity. Warming the product and injection equipment to about 15°C will greatly increase the ease with which the product can be injected.

    A representative sample of animals should be weighed before treatment. Dose the mob to the heaviest animal by liveweight in each group. Do not underdose. Where there is a large variation in size within the group, draft into two or more lines based on bodyweight, to avoid excessive overdosing.

    Ensure injection is subcutaneous. Intramuscular injection will result in prolonged residues. I-Clor injection injection is only to be administered at the approved dose of 1mL/50kg and is only to be given under the skin and not into the muscle.

    Inject I-Clor injection under loose skin on the anterior half of the neck. A 16-gauge, 15 to 20mm needle is suggested. Sterilise all injection equipment by boiling (or equivalent) prior to use. Maintain cleanliness at all times. Use sharp sterile needles and replace frequently. Discard remaining product after use.

    Appropriate vaccination against Clostridial infections should be undertaken in high risk areas.
