Just a quick reminder, when using ANY antibioitc "off label" or higher doseage than label recommendations, is also INCREASING your withdrawl time. If you are going to use higher levels of anitibiotic that the label directions, BE SURE you have in writing from your veterinarian (even if the antibiotic is an "over the counter-not Rx drug" that he is recommending the higher dose, and also be sure he INCLUDES the withdrawl time IN WRITING. As a cattle producer, we want to insure our product is safe when we are selling. and their is a new test coming out for Residue Testing, that will test for way more antibiotics, and way smaller residue amounts, so we all want to be sure we are treating animals safely.
