cowanbree Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Does anyone have the dose rate mL per kg for revolution? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poodlefan Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 No but I'm not sure I'd want to use in on a Sheltie Cowanbree - its Ivermectin based. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMAK Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Such individuals are usually Collies, Shetland sheepdogs, Australian shepherds, and Old English sheepdogs, members of these sensitive breeds may be prone to side effects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowanbree Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 Thanks, I have been advised to use it by a skin specialist to resolve my itching issues and he assures me it is sheltie safe so it must be a modified version. Not a lot of options for shelties unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staranais Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 (edited) https://www.revolution4dogs.com/PAHimages/c..._compliance.pdf 6mg/ml, apparently. ETA, please note that's in mg/ml - you'll have to change it into ml/kg by finding out the concentration of the product in mg/ml. I know that selamectin (revolution) has a wider margin of safety for MDR1 dogs than many other avermectins do, I don't know if it's totally safe or not, but presumably your specialist would know what he's talking about (you'd hope!)

cowanbree Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 Thanks. So using 120mg each 10kgs of dog needs .5mL ? Is that right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staranais Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 Yup, a 10kg dog needs 60mg of selamectin, if the conc of revolution is 120 mg/ml, this is 0.5mL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
