Effydral Tablets

One litre of ready-to-use Effydral solution is prepared by adding one effervescent tablet to 1 litre lukewarm (circa 37oC) water. The solution should be made up freshly just prior to feeding, using clean water and equipment.
Treatment should commence as soon as diarrhoea is noticed. Instead of feeding milk or milk replacer, feed 2 or 3 litres of Effydral solution twice daily for two days. During the next two days, feed 1 or 1.5 litres Effydral solution, mixed with an equal quantity of milk or milk replacer. Normal feeding can then usually be resumed.
If symptoms persist, consult your veterinarian about further treatment.
In cases of severe dehydration, the Effydral solution should be administered in 3 or 4 feeds per day. If necessary, Effydral solution can be administered by stomach tube.
If necessary, Effydral solutions can be fed exclusively for up to 4 days without harmful effects.
