Virbac HITEK-F injection (ivermectin & clorsulon) is a broad-spectrum parasiticide used in ruminants that targets a wide array of internal and external parasites.
INDICATIONS
- Liver Flukes: Specifically treats and controls Fascioliasis (mature liver flukes).
- Gastrointestinal Roundworms: Targets stomach and gut worms (adult and fourth-stage larvae), such as Haemonchus, Ostertagia, Cooperia, and Trichostrongylus.
- Pulmonary Nematodes: Effectively treats lungworms (e.g., Dictyocaulus viviparus).
- Other Internal Worms: Controls eye worms, skin worms, and muscle worms.
ADMINISTRATION
HITEK-F Ivermectin & Clorsulon Injection is administered exclusively via subcutaneous injection. Must never be given into a vein or muscle, as this can cause severe adverse reactions or toxicity.
Administration Details
- Method: Administer under the loose skin in the anterior half of the neck, or directly behind the shoulder blade.
- Needle Size: Use a sterile 16-gauge needle.
- Volume Management: For large single volumes, split the injection across two different sites to prevent soft-tissue swelling or discomfort.
- Accuracy: Weigh animals accurately to ensure proper administration, as incorrect amounts can lead to efficacy issues or toxicity.
