The dose should be given once daily at 24 hour intervals and continued for 48 hours after clinical signs have disappeared. A 10 day treatment period is usually adequate. A maximum of 10 ml solution should be administered per injection site. If no response is seen within 4?5 days, the diagnosis should be redetermined.
