Feeding

Cattle: VALBAZEN® Suspension should be administered to cattle at the recommended rate of 4 mL/100 lb. of body weight (equivalent to 4.54 mg of albendazole/lb., or 10 mg of albendazole/kg).

Sheep: Administer at the recommended rate of 0.75 mL/25 lb of body weight (equivalent to 3.4 mg of albendazole/lb, 7.5 mg/kg).

Goats: Administer at 1 mL/25 lb of body weight (equivalent to 4.54 mg of albendazole/lb, 10 mg/kg)

Timing is critical for use of VALBAZEN® Suspension to control liver flukes because the product is only effective against the adult form (minimal efficacy against the larval stages). Much of the damage to an individual animal’s liver occurs during the immature larval migrations. However, by controlling the only location in the life cycle that can produce eggs (adults), we can effectively reduce pasture contamination (if weather conditions are right) and positively impact subsequent cattle generations. The timing of when adults appear varies based on available moisture and environment. Work closely with your veterinarian to determine the best time to administer.
