It is recommended that SAFE-GUARD® 20% Type A Medicated Article be diluted before addition to the feed.

Due to the possible variation in animal feeding behavior, underdosing may occur in individual animals. Underdosing may encourage the development of parasite resistance. It is recommended that parasite resistance be monitored following the use of any anthelmintic with the use of a fecal egg count reduction test program.
