Active Drug Ingredient
Each pound contains 90.7 grams (20%) of lasalocid (as lasalocid sodium activity) in a carrier suitable for incorporation in liquid feed supplements.
CATTLE: For improved feed efficiency and increased rate of weight gain when used in medicated feeds for cattle fed in confinement for slaughter. For increased rate of weight gain when used in medicated feeds for pasture cattle (slaughter, stocker, feeder cattle, and dairy and beef replacement heifers).
For control of coccidiosis caused by Eimeria bovis and E. zuernii in cattle up to 800 lbs.
SHEEP: For prevention of coccidiosis caused by Eimeria ovina, E. crandallis, E. ovinoidalis (E. ninakohlyakimovae), E. parva and E. intricata in sheep maintained in confinement.
IMPORTANT: Handling Information - Must be thoroughly mixed in feeds before use. When mixing and handling Lasalocid Type A Liquid Medicated Article use protective clothing and impervious gloves. Avoid contact with eyes. Operators should wash hands thoroughly with soap and water after handling.
MIXING DIRECTIONS
This product should be incorporated into liquid feed supplements:
(1) Agitate Bovatec Liquid 20 before use.
(2) Supplements with suspending agent(s) should be in a pH range of 4 - 8 and maintain physical stability for up to three months with a viscosity not less than 300 cps.
(3) Conventional liquid supplements should be in a pH range of 4 - 8.
For liquid feeds stored in recirculating tank systems: Recirculate immediately prior to use for no less than 10 minutes, moving not less than 1 percent of the tank contents per minute from the bottom of the tank to the top. Recirculate daily as described even when not used.
For liquid feeds stored in mechanical, air, or other agitation-type tank systems: Agitate immediately prior to use for not less than 10 minutes, creating a turbulence at the bottom of the tank that is visible at the top. Agitate daily as described even when not used.
(4) The following is provided as a guide in determining the quantity of Bovatec Liquid 20 (Type A Medicated Article) to be added in preparing liquid feed supplements (LFS). Preparation of intermediate liquid preblend is not recommended.

USE DIRECTIONS
| Species | Dose | Indications for use |
|---|---|---|
| Cattle Fed in Confinement for Slaughter | 10-30 grams lasalocid per ton of total ration (90% dry matter) | For improved feed efficiency in cattle being fed in confinement for slaughter, feed continuously to provide not less than 100 mg nor more than 360 mg per head per day. |
| 25-30 grams lasalocid per ton of total ration (90% dry matter) | For improved feed efficiency and increased rate of weight gain in cattle being fed in confinement for slaughter, feed continuously to provide not less than 250 mg nor more than 360 mg per head per day. | |
| Pasture Cattle – slaughter, stocker, feeder cattle, and dairy and beef replacement heifers | 60-300 mg lasalocid per head/day | For increased rate of weight gain. The drug must be contained in at least 1 pound of feed and fed continuously on a daily basis. |
| 60-300 mg lasalocid per head/day | For increased rate of weight gain, feed continuously on a free-choice basis. A feed mill license is required when the free-choice feed is manufactured using a proprietary formula and/or specifications. Free-choice feed formulations must be FDA-approved. | |
| Daily lasalocid intakes in excess of 200 mg per head per day have not been shown to be more effective than 200 mg lasalocid per head per day. | ||
| NOTE: Coccidiosis may occur when young pasture cattle are co-mingled with adult cattle passing coccidial oocysts. | ||
| Cattle | 1 mg lasalocid per 2.2 lbs body weight/day | For control of coccidiosis caused by Eimeria bovis and E. zuernii in cattle up to 800 lbs. Hand feed continuously to provide not more than 360 mg per day. |
