5-DAY TREATMENT

Add CORID 20% Soluble Powder to drinking water at the rate of 4 oz/50 gal. One 10 oz pack to 125 gallons of water. For use in automatic water proportioners that meter 1 fl oz of stock solution per gallon of drinking water, add 1 bag (10 oz) in 1 gallon of water to make stock solution. At the usual rate of water consumption, this will provide an intake of approximately 10 mg amprolium/kg (2.2 Ib) body weight. Offer this solution as the only source of water for 5 days. Treatment should be on a herd basis only; when one or more calves show signs of coccidiosis, it is likely that the rest of the group has been exposed, and all calves in the group should be treated.
