Dosage of Flypor

The dose rate is 1ml Flypor per 10kg bodyweight up to a maximum of 40ml. 

Assess bodyweight accurately before calculating the dosage. If treating animals collectively rather than individually, group animals according to their bodyweight and dose accordingly, to avoid under or overdosing.

Administration of Flypor

How to administer: Flypor should be applied as a pour on suspension using either the calibrated dispensing chamber incorporated into the applicator bottle, or the flexi-pack with an Elanco Cattle Pour On Gun.

Before administration:

For fly control:

Apply approximately ¼ of the calculated dose to the top of the head. Pour the remainder along the neck and mid-backline – Flypor spreads to protect the animal. 

A single dose is normally sufficient to control flies for up to 8 weeks. The first treatment should be carried out when the number of flies start to increase. In cases of heavy infestation, the dose may be repeated at 4 week intervals.

For lice control:

Apply in the same way as the fly dosage. A single dose is normally sufficient to control all lice. In certain cases of heavy infestation, the dose may be repeated after 4 weeks. 

For treatment of sarcoptic and chorioptic mange: 

The calculated dose should be applied directly to all visibly affected areas; any remaining should be poured along the backline in the normal way. The dose should be repeated after 4 weeks.

Withdrawal periods for Flypor

Meat and offal: cattle may be slaughtered for human consumption from 3 days after last treatment. Animals must not be slaughtered for human consumption during treatment.

Milk: cattle producing milk for human consumption should be treated immediately after milking to allow as long an interval as possible (at least 6 hours) before the next milking. There is no need to withhold milk from subsequent milkings.
