Quick question on Promax

[Spot the Merry Risk]

Bitch has been prescribed Promax with the printed dose as one notch one a day. Given that the tube is 30ml would you take that to be one segment of the notch on the syringe? Bit confused as the dose appears to be 10ml ie three days. Obviously I can ring the vet tomorrow but she’s been seen by a different practice than normal and it being Sunday I doubt the same vet will be available.

What weight is she?

Ok has it got marks with 1,2,3 on them? If so it’s one of those marks once per day & should last 3 days as long as you’ve been given the correct syringe for weight of dog

What weight is she?

19kg, normally around 25kg. They’ve prescribed the25kg+ version.

Each marking on that is 10ml (1,2,3). The dosing for her current weight would be 6ml, are the notches halfway between numbers? Perhaps vet was trying to give you that dose?

I'd be inclined to give a full 10ml daily
