Overview
Syringe Use Instructions: 1) Unlock the knurled ring on the syringe plunger. To do so, twist the plunger 1/4 turn and then move the ring down the shaft until the side nearest to the barrel is placed at the right daily dose marker. 2) Before dosing, rotate the ring 1/4 turn to ensure that it is secured into place. 3) Make sure the horse's mouth is clear of feed. 4) Remove the cap from the syringe's tip. 5) Place the syringe in the horse's mouth corner. 6) Depress the plunger until it hits the knurled ring and stop. The entire dose should be placed in the cheek pouch or towards the back of the tongue. 7) Keep a close eye on the horse to make sure no dosage is refused or lost. 8) Re-dose if any product is lost. 9) Replace the cap if any doses remain in the syringe.
