Dosage and Administration

By law the user must take due care, obtaining expert advice when necessary, to avoid unnecessary pain and distress when using the product other than as directed on the label.

For use in cattle and deer by subcutaneous injection. READ ENTIRE CARTON BEFORE USE.

• Cows: 3-4 weeks before calving, mating and drying-off.
• Calves: At day 1 and weaning.
• Heifers: Every 3 months, especially 3-4 weeks before mating.
• Additional: Every 2 months in wet conditions.
• Deer: Not recommended more frequently than once every 4 months.

Recently, MULTIMIN’s label was updated. Until new packaging is introduced:

MULTIMIN’s previous label stated that it could be administered in cattle and deer either subcutaneously or intramuscularly. The administration route is now subcutaneous only for cattle and deer, and dose volume and location instructions have been added.
MULTIMIN’s previous label specifically stated that it was not to be administered at the same time as any other treatment in cattle, such as drenches or vaccines. This statement has been removed for cattle, although advice against concurrent use with copper and selenium supplementation remains. However, in deer, Multimin should not be given at the same time as other treatments, as safety has not been established.
