So sorry that you did not get an answer yesterday. Hopefully, all went well and Nestle is ok today. Did you call your vet and get directions in case you need the amount to give in the future?
The liquid I believe is 12.5 mg per ml (you can find that on the label).... So giving one ml was definitely too much! That would be giving her 12.5 mg and you wanted to give 5.7.
Those shots can make them feel punky for about 24 hours. Hopefully, she is fine now!
