None known.
The treatment consists of oral administration of Lincomix 60% in drinking water, individually or in mass, for 5 consecutive days at different doses, depending on species, age, body weight, physiological status and state of health.
For pigs: Administer a dose of 10 mg lincomycin/kg body weight/day, i.e., 17 mg product/kg body weight/day.
For chickens (broilers): Administer a dose of 10-20 mg lincomycin/kg body weight/day, i.e., 17-34 mg product/kg body weight/day. For mass treatment, we recommend the correct calculation of total body weight and quantity of product to be administered, using the following formula: Mg product/kg body weight/day * average body weight (kg) of animals to be treated/daily average water consumption (L/animal/day) = mg product/L water
Throughout treatment, animals should consume only medicated water.
The product should be well diluted in drinking water to achieve a uniform dispersion of the product.
The consumption of medicated water depends on the clinical condition of the animals.
To ensure a correct dose, the body weight of the animals should be accurately determined, whenever possible, to avoid underdosing. Medicated drinking water should be freshly prepared every 24 hours.
