ADMINISTRATION
At the time of drying off, but not less than 30 days prior to calving, milk the udder dry. Wash the teats and udder thoroughly with warm water containing a suitable dairy antiseptic. Dry the teats and udder thoroughly. Infuse each quarter using the following procedure. Using the alcohol pads provided, scrub each teat end clean using a separate pad for each teat. Warm ALBADRY PLUS Suspension to body temperature and shake thoroughly. Choose the desired insertion length (full or partial) and insert tip into teat canal. Instill entire contents into the quarter. Massage the udder after treatment to distribute the ALBADRY PLUS Suspension throughout the quarters. Using a suitable teat dip, dip all teats following treatment.
