Mr. Rizki Samsudin \u2013 by email<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

When is the best time to take antibiotics and at what dosage?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have 24,000 chickens and use\u00a0Dosatron<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0<\/a>for the administration of drugs\/vitamins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Answer<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you for the submitted question. Antibiotics are used to treat bacterial infections such as Colibacillosis, CRD (Chronic Respiratory Disease<\/em>), Korisa, Salmonellosis, Kolera dan NE (Necrotic Enteritis<\/em>). It is not allowed to give antibiotics for preventive purposes. Because this can risk causing resistance in bacteria to antibiotics given. As a result, the effect of giving antibiotics is not optimal and the disease does not go away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Every antibiotic product on the market has an etiquette or label as information about the product. Included in it is information about the indications, dosage and rules of use of the product. An example of a product label\u00a0Amoxitin<\/strong>\u00a0<\/a>there is information on the dosage and rules of use, namely 0.1 grams per kilogram of body weight or 1 gram per 2 liters of drinking water given for 3-5 consecutive days. Its use is recommended to dose in one day divided into 2 administrations, with each administration\/ mixing with drinking water should be exhausted within a maximum of 6 hours. For example, the first administration at 07.00-12.00 then followed by the second administration at 12.00-17.00. This aims to make treatment results more optimal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If the technical administration of drugs on the farm father uses\u00a0Dosatron<\/a><\/strong>the amount of water consumed per day (water intake<\/em>) which can be known from the numbers shown in\u00a0water meter<\/em>\u00a0on the chicken drinking water installation system. However, if the chicken drinking water installation system is not equipped\u00a0water meter<\/em>, then the calculation of the amount of drinking water consumption of chickens is assumed to be equal to 1.5-2 times\u00a0feed intake<\/em>\u00a0daily. In addition to note is the volume of solvent for the drug and\u00a0setting<\/em>\u00a0(scale)\u00a0Dosatron<\/strong>\u00a0<\/a>used. It is important to know the target time required so that the drug solution can be consumed by chickens according to the specified target. Here is an example of calculating the drug in powder and liquid preparations when using\u00a0Dosatron<\/a><\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Powder medicine<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Chicken population: 24,000 head<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Average weight : 0.5 kg<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Feed intake<\/em> : 45 g \/ head\/Day<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Target water consumption: 90 ml \/ head\/Day<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dosage of the drug : 0.1 g \/ kg bw<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Setting<\/em>\u00a0Dosatron<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0<\/a>: 2%<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Target run out : 6 hours<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Then the answer is as follows :<\/p>\n\n\n\n
