ive just purchased the xeno 450 to treat my piggies and was wondering what is the correct dosage and how many times do they need to be treated?

I'm treating mine every 2 weeks but that is because a couple of my had a nasty infection, for the babies I'm treating them with xeno 50 that's for weight up to 700g what you have is for adults. If you weigh them all I'm sure someone can give advice

Hi! What are you treating for? Have you got a vet diagnosis for it?

Please follow the advice on the packing; the application and concentration of xeno goes by weight. A full course comprises three rounds of xeno at two weeks apart (see packaging). Please be careful to only treat with the correct concentration of ivermectin to the actual weight.
 
I'm treating for mites as i think my piggies could possibly have them.ive been told the medicine wont harm them if they dont have mites.but i want to make sure they are happy and healthy.
 
so is it ok to treat the piggies even if they dont have mites? as a method or prevention for example? i wont be giving them anything until I'm certain of the dosage and the safety of the product.
 
Please note that we cannot advise on dosages as only a qualified vet can prescribe treatment after an examination of your piggies. In any event we would not advise treating without a formal vet diagnosis. Please take your piggies to the vets for a formal diagnosis and proper treatment.
