Use in combination with Doxycycline for best results. Injectable form tastes horrible and must be mixed with something to make it palatable. Can also be nebulized. However, it can also be effective against Strep , Staph , and Corynebacterium infections. Should not be used with Chloramphenicol or the Lincosamides.
Injectable form is painful.
No prescription needed. Great for treating severe respiratory disease and secondary bacterial infections. Best used in combination with Cefa-Drops, Clavamox, or Amoxicillin. Can cause kidney damage, but it is not at all common, however, encourage the rat to drink plenty of liquids to be safe. The Ivermectin gets into the bloodstream and when the mite or louse bites the rat and drinks the blood, the bug dies.
