You are using the Toltrazuril for cocci. That is a horse product. That vet said it not meant for goats ?? No strong enough

It's not just a horse product. You can tell that vet it works quite well on goats.

I might try it hopefully it works better than Corid nothing is working for this one goat

@pwesthuis While we acknowledge our need for vets, they aren't regarded as gods here. This is a community that has had to learn to work around vet ignorance through much experience and learning the science ourselves and passing it along. You'll find deep knowledge here about the medical needs of goats.

thanks I hope it helps my sicker goat praying so

You probably have a vet like the vet I use in absolute emergencies. He will NOT look into anything. If in his mind, his book or whatever it is he goes off of thinks it's approved for goats then he says it's not and won't give it out or says not to use it. I needed him for lute once and he wouldn't give it to me or let me bring the goats in to give to them.

Does anyone know how many days you give toltrazuril to your goats?? My bottle has enough for 1 horse

 

[pwesthuis]

So you have to wait 21 days to redose hopefully it helps

FYI

I just got an email today from racehorsemeds.com announcing a new product. It's toltrazuril powder. On sale it's about half the price of the liquid suspension, but has the same amount of active ingredient as the bottle of liquid.

Did you figure out how much liquid to add to the powder. I have some too ?? thanks

Mix the Toltrazuril 10g packet in 200mL water. I put mine in a glass screw top jar and shake it up. Be very careful opening the packet, the powder is very fine and adheres to everything it touches. It also doesn't dissolve well. It's a hassle to work with. Dose as normal, 1mL per 5 pounds.

thanks so much that is what we did
