DISPOSAL OF TREATED WATER: Do not discharge marking immersion water containing oxytetracycline into surface waters.


Precautions



PRECAUTION: Prepare fresh solutions every 24 hours.

Special Note: The concentration of drug required in medicated water must be adequate to compensate for variation in the age of the animal, feed consumption rate and the environmental temperature and humidity, each of which affects water consumption.
