Miss Feathers Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 Morning everyone i took my girl (Cruella de Vil) to the vets yesterday as she has a sore eye and is off colour. He gave me Tylan powder and told me to put .05 grams in a litre of water. Am I right in thinking that’s 5ml?? He also gave me Isathal ointment for her eye which I used but she still woke up with her eye stuck shut this morning. Am I doing this right?

Cat tails Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 What does the bottle/box say? 0,05 grams sounds like very little. And I really don’t think it would correspond to 5 mL but it all depends on the density of the powder. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 I think if it’s Tylan soluble it’s usually half a gram (so 0.5 rather than 0.05) per litre https://www.viovet.co.uk/Tylan-Antibiotic/c323/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Feathers Posted August 21, 2019 Author Share Posted August 21, 2019 Hi it came as loose powder from a ziplock bag and he has put. Give .5 gr in 1 litre of water. How do I measure something so small? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat tails Posted August 21, 2019 Share Posted August 21, 2019 If you have a kitchen scale, you can measure out 1 g and then take half. Although it will never be as accurate. But you will be in the right order of magnitude. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
