Setup, Compatibility & Care
Before administration, estimate your horse's weight accurately using a weight tape or scale. To administer, rotate the ring on the plunger to the correct weight marking. Ensure the horse has no feed in its mouth. Insert the syringe into the side of the mouth and deposit the gel on the back of the tongue, then hold the horse's head up for a few seconds to encourage swallowing. Store the product in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and always keep out of reach of children and other animals.
