My Tiny Treasures Donating Member | Thanks so much !!!! Sooooooo (I want to make sure I do this right) if the dosage is 1 full teaspoon per 5 lbs of body weight..... I'd give how much for a 1lb 13 oz baby? (Sorry - I so suck in math!) |

| What ever your giving him the Vet. should have broken it down for you. I hope your not planning on giving your baby people medicine without consulting with a Vet. first. |

| Okay so I am in pharmacy school now and I just took a class on calculating doses, and this is what I come up with; your baby weights 29 ounces (16 ounces in a pound) and 5 lbs would be 80 ounces so 29 ounces x 5ml/80 ounces equals 1.81 ml. (if you want to understand the math ounces cancel out and leave you with ml) so approx. 2 ml is one dose for your baby! Hope this helps!! |

My Tiny Treasures Donating Member | I'm a breeder and my breeding mentor was advising me on my worming medicine and I just wanted to double check the dosage, and post here to get everyone elses input. So I was being very careful by posting here as a double check Thats how over careful I am! She's been breeding for 40 years!!! Yes, I'm VERY careful. I'm sorry to hear your little one is not well. I will send a prayer her way and please let us know how she's doing ! Quote:

| you are only giving 1.81 ml or 1.81 cc same thing! you are not giving a full teaspoon only about 1/3 of a teaspoon. I don't think that should be too much for her body weight. If the dose for a 5 lb dog is one teaspoon. Also I am a pharmacist in training and would never tell you this if I was not 100% positive about the calculation! Not to toot my horn or anything but I received an A in calculations. |
