I will attempt to compile this and
keep it up to date. This post will be added to and changed along the way
as the best course of medications and dosages change. So you might want
to revisit this post.
*Note* These are
medications that I have personal knowledge of. I will not list every
medication or remedy that you might be able to think of, or give all the
particulars. This is "the basics".
Wormers
Ivermectin Injectable
or pour-on
1cc/22lbs (orally)
will kill all worms except for tape worms
Valbazen (oral
suspension)
1cc/10lbs (orally)
Is effective against tape worms.
use with ivermectin.(because Valbazen is no longer effective
against stomach worms)
Safeguard/panacur
1cc/10lbs (orally)
Not effective in the US or most of the civilized world.
Ivermectin plus
I have not had the need to use this. The "plus" is for liver flukes,
which I have always been able to take care of with regular ivermec.
Lice and fly control
CyLence (Pour on)
1cc/25lbs repeat @ 3 wks (lice dosage)
1cc/50lbs repeat @ 3 wks (horn and face flies)
Antibiotics
Pen G
1cc/15lbs 2x/day (SQ)
This is used on kids 6 mos old and younger.
You want to use a 18ga needle.
Biomycin (200)
3cc/100lbs 1x/day (SQ)
Nuflor RX only
1cc/17lbs
1x/every 4 days (SQ)
Use on kids with pneumonia
Also use on mastitis
*burns like mad. And very thick. Use a 18ga needle.*
Di-Methox (40%)
1cc/5lbs 1st day
1cc/10lbs next 4 days (orally)
Cocci and Cocci prevention
Corid (liquid 9.6%) undiluted
2.5cc/10lbs for 5 days (orally)
Cocci and Cocci prevention
Polyflex (Ampicillin)
1cc/40lbs 1x/day for 5 days (SQ)
staph dermatitis, kids with URI
Remedies
Warm soapy enema (rectally)
I use dish soap and just make the solution slick to the touch.
Use a 3cc luer slip for the little fellows, put it in their butt, hold
butt closed
for about 15-30 secs after removing the luer slip. Repeat this until
you are not getting poo. (3-4x/day)
Baking soda (orally)
This is given orally. 1tsp for miniature breeds, 1tbs for standard
breeds. (3-4x/ day)
The idea here is to put the baking soda in a bowl and add a little
water, you want to draw the soda into
a luer slip with as little amount of water as possible and still be
able to push it out of the luer slip.
For Bloat and floppy kid syndrome
Vegetable oil (orally)
3cc baby (miniature), 6cc adult (miniature), 3-6cc baby (standard),
12cc adult (standard)
Again dose orally 3-4x/day

Vaccinations
CD&T - 2cc/goat repeat in 3 weeks Babies get this @ 3wks old and 6wks
old.(SQ or IM) (SQ can leave a "vaccine lump")
Pasterella (pneumonia) - 2cc/goat repeat in 3 weeks If babies are
vaccinated under 3 months of age then give the booster @ 4 months of age

vaccination)
