Safe-Guard AquaSol is an antiparasitic designed for the treatment and control of adult Ascaridia galli in broiler chickens and replacement chickens and for the treatment and control of adult A. galli and Heterakis gallinarum in breeding chickens and laying hens. Safe-Guard is a suspension concentrate containing fenbendazole, an antiparasitic. Each mL of Safe-Guard AquaSol contains 200 mg of fenbendazole. Safe-Guard AquaSol must be administered orally to chickens via drinking water at a daily dose of 1 mg/kg BW (0.454 mg/lb) for 5 consecutive days.
Features & Benefits
Dosage: Administer orally to chickens via drinking water at a daily dose of 1 mg/kg BW (0.454 mg/lb) for 5 consecutive days.
Directions For Mixing: The daily dose of 1 mg fenbendazole per kg BW (0.454 mg/lb) is equivalent to 0.005 mL Safe-Guard AquaSol per kg BW (0.00227 mL/lb). The required daily volume of product is calculated from the total estimated body weight [kg] of the entire group of chickens to be treated. Use this formula: Total estimated body weight [kg] of the chickens to be treated x 0.005 mL = mL Safe-Guard AquaSol/day
| Total body weight of birds to be treated | Volume of Safe-Guard AquaSol per day | Volume of Safe-Guard AquaSol (for 5 days) |
|---|---|---|
| 5,000 kg (11,000 lb) | 25mL | 5 x 25 mL = 125 mL |
| 10,000 kg (22,000 lb) | 50mL | 5 x 50 mL = 250 mL |
| 80,000 kg (176,000 lb) | 400mL | 5 x 400 mL = 2,000 mL |
| 320,000 kg (704,000 lb) | 1,600 mL | 5 x 1,600 mL = 8,000 mL |
For use with a medication tank: Add the entire 1 to 1 dilution of Safe-Guard AquaSol in water to the medication tank containing the volume of drinking water usually consumed by the animals in 3 to 24 hours. Stir the medicated water in the medication tank until the medicated water is visibly homogeneous. The medicated water should appear hazy. No further stirring during administration is necessary.
For use with a dosing pump: Add the entire 1 to 1 dilution of Safe-Guard AquaSol in water to the water in the stock suspension tank of the dosing pump. The volume of water in the stock suspension container has to be calculated taking as a basis the present injection rate of the dosing pump and the volume of drinking water usually consumed by the animals over a period of 3 to 24 hours. Stir until the content in the stock suspension tank is visibly homogeneous. The medicated water should appear hazy.
At concentrations of up to 5 mL/L stock suspension (1 g fenbendazole/L) no stirring is required. At concentrations from 5 mL up to 75 mL of product /L stock suspension (1,000 mg to 15,000 mg fenbendazole/L) and within up to 8 hours during the treatment administration period no stirring of the stock suspension is required. If the administration period exceeds 8 hours, but being no longer than 24 hours, the stock suspension container needs to be equipped with a stirring device.
During treatment, all animals must have sole and unrestricted access to the medicated water. After complete consumption of the medicated water, the animals should have access to non-medicated drinking water ad libitum. Ensure that the total amount of medicated water offered is consumed.
