VYTRATE Liquid Concentrate is intended for oral administration after dilution with water to 12.5 times its original volume (40 mL makes 500 mL; 80 mL makes 1 L; 160 mL makes 2 L). Veterinary advice is strongly recommended when considering treating dehydrated animals. Bought-in calves: feed 2 litres of diluted solution, instead of milk, as the first feed on arrival. For the next scheduled feed, use 1 litre of diluted solution at the same time as, but not mixed with, milk/milk replacer. Scouring calves: 1 to 1.5 litres of diluted solution per 10 kg bodyweight daily, divided into two or more daily doses. If the scouring is established or severe, causing serious dehydration, the higher dose should be used initially and fed in 3 or 4 divided doses. Milk feeding should continue as normal during periods of scouring. Seek veterinary advice if blood is present or scours persist beyond 4 days. Piglets: may be dosed individually by giving 20–30 mL diluted solution 3 or 4 times a day (take care to avoid choking). Weaned pigs: provide fresh diluted solution in a suitable clean vessel; as a general guide, weaners will consume 1–2 litres/weaner/day. For all pigs, make diluted solution available for 4 days; if the scour has not cleared completely, treatment may be continued for up to 8 days in total. Lambs: 150–200 mL of fresh diluted solution, 2–4 times daily as required. Ewes (pregnancy toxaemia): administer 160 mL UNDILUTED solution per ewe; repeat at 4 to 6 hour intervals as necessary. Foals: as a guide, 1–2 litres of fresh diluted solution 2–3 times daily, depending on bodyweight and severity of the symptoms, has been reported as a suitable dosage regimen for neonatal foals. Dogs and cats: as a guide, prepared solution 2–3 times daily at 125 mL (cats and miniature dogs up to 5 kg), 250 mL (small dogs 5–10 kg), 500 mL (medium dogs 11–20 kg) or 750 mL (large dogs over 20 kg). Unused diluted solution may be kept in a clean container below 25°C but should be replaced with fresh solution every 24 hours. Always read the registered label before use (APVMA 53841).
