I use pharmaceutical quality Ivermectin...When it comes from the company, it comes with a recipe for mixing it in solution and the dosage is included.. I have done this for several years. It is made for injection but is also effective when given orally. I give 70 mcg of Ivermectin every 30 days..the amt in Heartgard is 68mcg so I am very close to that dosage..
