For the treatment and control of gastrointestinal roundworms, lungworms, eyeworms, warbles, lice and mange mites in cattle, and gastrointestinal roundworms and nasal bots in sheep, a single treatment of 1 ml (10 mg Doramectin) per 50 kg bodyweight, equivalent to 200 mcg/kg bodyweight, administered in the region of the neck by subcutaneous injection in cattle and by intramuscular injection in sheep.
For the treatment of clinical signs of Psoroptes ovis (sheep scab) and elimination of living mites on sheep a single treatment of 1 ml per 33 kg bodyweight, equivalent to 300 mcg/kg bodyweight, administered in the neck by intramuscular injection. In addition, adequate bio-security measures should be implemented to prevent reinfestation. It is important to ensure that all sheep which have been in contact with infested sheep are treated.

To ensure administration of a correct dose, bodyweight should be determined as accurately as possible; accuracy of the dosing device should be checked. If animals are to be treated collectively rather than individually, they should be grouped according to their bodyweight and dosed accordingly, in order to avoid under- and over- dosing.

- Cattle: 5 ml per injection site
- Sheep: 1.5 ml per injection site
- Pigs: 2.5 ml per injection site
