The following page covers of variety of dosages and applications for medications, antibiotics, and other injectables, as well as wormers and vitamin supplements, and comes from years of experience, not only by this author, but from several goat producers as well. Many medications and supplements on the market today are given "off-label". That is, the label information for any given product does not specifically contain information regarding dosages for goats. Use this page wisely but remember, if you have any question or concern on the use of a specific product, consult a licensed veterinarian before administration.
