Dosage:

Bimeprazol is effective in horses of various breeds and under different management conditions; foals as young as four weeks of age, weighing over 70 kg and breeding stallions.

For oral administration.

Treatment of gastric ulcers: one administration per day during 28 consecutive days at the dose rate of 4mg omeprazole per kg body weight followed immediately by a dosage regimen of one administration per day during 28 consecutive days at the dose rate of 1mg omeprazole per kg body weight, to reduce the recurrence of gastric ulcers during treatment. Should recurrence occur, re-treatment at a dose rate of 4mg omeprazole per kg body weight is recommended. It is recommended to associate the treatment with changes of husbandry and training practices. 

Prevention of gastric ulcers: one administration per day at the dose rate of 1mg omeprazole per kg body weight.

To deliver Bimeprazol at the dose of 4mg omeprazole/kg, set the syringe plunger to the appropriate dose division for the horse’s weight. Each full dose division on the syringe plunger delivers sufficient omeprazole to treat 100kg body weight. The contents of one syringe will treat a 575kg horse at the rate of 4 mg omeprazole per kg body weight.

To deliver Bimeprazol at the dose of 1mg omeprazole/kg, set the syringe plunger to the dose division equivalent to one quarter of the horse’s body weight. At this dose, each full dose division on the syringe plunger will deliver sufficient omeprazole to treat 400kg body weight. For example, to treat a horse weighing 400kg, set the plunger to 100kg.
