Under these circumstances the concentration of lincomycin required in medicated water may be adjusted to compensate for variations in age and weight of animals, the nature and severity of disease symptoms, environmental temperature and humidity, each of which affects water consumption.
For use in automatic water proportioners, prepare the stock solution by dissolving two scoop in one gallons of water, then adjust the proportioner to deliver 1 ounce of stock solution per gallon of drinking water.
