Ivermectin Dosage And Application

[Dilly's Piggies]

I was just wondering if 1% topical ivermectin drops are safe to use on a 9 week old piggy, she is 570g in weight. My older pigs have the worst symptoms on their rumps, I have read it's best to split up their doses into 3 parts and put 2 behind the ears and 1 directly on the rump, is this more effective than the traditional way of all the dose on the back of the neck? Thanks in advance

@furryfriends (TEAS) @helen105281 @Elwickcavies @Adelle What strength xeno is it for 500g pigs

Guinea Lynx says it's 0.025cc. I'd give your vet a call to ask their advice @CavyConnoisseur
