    Call the vet to make sure you give proper dosage.

    1 gram for a 20lb pet, 1/20 for a 1lb pet.

    the figure`s are a bit wrong ,the dosage would far outweigh the poor animal!

    Depends on the meds surely?

    bowlesy  Read the question  It said 1 (one) gram for each 20 pounds of pet.  How does that outweigh the animal?  There are thousands of grams in a pound. Thus for a 60 lb dog, (like a Dalmatian) you would give it only 3 grans if the medicine.  Thus only one ounce of medicine would be enough for over 200 dogs.
